OFFICIAL INSPECTION 10. 35 



Any form of guaranty covering the facts may be used. The 

 printed matter on the bag or the tags accompanying the feeding 

 stuff zvill not he considered as a guaranty. The guaranty to be 

 valid must be signed in ink. The guaranty should identify and 

 may be attached to the bill of sale, invoice, Bill of Lading or 

 other schedule giving the name and amount of feed stuff. In 

 case of car load lots, the car number should appear. 



In case a dealer cannot obtain a written guaranty from the 

 parties from whom he purchases, the only safe thing is to take 

 a sample from the car immediately on its arrival and before it 

 is accepted, and send to the Experiment Station. A prompt 

 free analysis will be made and results reported.
