such seed has been tested as to purity, which test shall be established by 
the official certificate issued by the state from which such shipment is made 
or by the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station or by United States 
officers or board, and a duplicate of such certificate shall be attached to the 
bill of lading, and unless the containers of such seed are labeled or tagged, 
giving the information as required on the regular label. Where such cer¬ 
tificate has not been obtained or where the containers of such shipments 
have not been labeled or tagged, the transportation company may bring the 
seed into the State, but shall notify The Colorado Seed Laboratory and shall 
hold such seed for inspection, such inspection to be made at the expense of 
the owner of the seed.”

vent the representatives of the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station 
from inspecting said seed and collecing samples, or any transportation com¬ 
pany or person who shall ship or bring field seed into this State without 
complying with the requirements above shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.” 
Fig. 11.—Making- purity analyses in The Colorado Seed Laboratory. Samples sub¬ 
mitted by you for analysis are given the most painstaking attention, and 
care is taken to give you accurate information as to the percentage of 
pure seed, the percentage of noxious weed seeds, the percentage of 
other seeds, the percentage of inert matter, and to identify and desig¬ 
nate on the report to you each kind of weed seed found in your sample.
