Feed Inspector IL Here.
One OF the visitors here is l.. Nc
Lehman, OF College Station, one Of
the four general state inspectors Of
feeds. This is Mr.. McLennan's first
visit to the Panhandle, as he has
heretofore been working In lower
Texas territory. As inspector, Mr.,
McLennan takes samples Of stock
feeds OF all kinds wherever ne finds
them and sends them into the expert
ment farm at College Station. There
the samples are analysed in order to
see whether the feeders are getting
as much actual feed value as the tag
on the sack shows they should get,
Mr.. McLennan says that adult ra-
lions OF feed products now are very
rare because makers and dealers in
them have found that 1t is simply
good business policy to sell feed with
the state tags which guarantee
standard Of quality. But the work
OF the state in this respect has cut
many OF the "mixed feeds" which
were once compounded with all
kinds of ingredients from corn cobs
to rice polish and sold at prices far
out Of proportion to their feeding
value. While here now, Mr., McLen-
nan is simply taking in the conven-
ton and thoroughly enjoying his
first visit to Amarillo and the Pan
handle.
