CHANGES IN INSPECTION LAWS. 



The Legislature of 191 1 re-enacted and added to the laws of 

 which the Director of the Maine Agricultural Experiment Sta- 

 tion is the executive. With the exception of the packing of 

 food under inspection these laws do not become effective until 

 June 29, 191 1. The laws have to do with the regulating of the 

 manufacture, sale and distribution of agricultural seed, com- 

 mercial feeding stuffs, commercial fertilizers, drugs, foods, 

 fungicides and insecticides. The law indexed for ready refer- 

 ence has been printed, and also the requirements under the law 

 and the rules and regulations for carrying out the provisions of 

 each of the above headings have been prepared. Any or all 

 ■of these will be sent on application to Director Charles D. 

 Woods, Orono, Maine. 



The object of the present publication is to concisely point out 

 the changes in and the chief requirements of the various laws.
