retriever is remarkable loaned him to
a friend who was only an amateur at
the business. About the middle of the

took his gun in the afternoon to try
the dog. He worked all right, and a
number of birds We're secured. The
next day he met the friend who had

up a. number of the scattered birds
and took q dozen shots or more, but
got nothing, and the dog put his tail

STRUGGLE FOR PURE FOOD
Note the Provisions Of New Law Re.
garding Pure Seed to be Used

The law of this state regulating the
sale of agricultural seeds includes all
the varieties of grass seeds, forage
plants and the cereals.
1t prohibits the sale of agricultural
seeds if any seeds OF the following
weeds are present. namely. wild mus
tard of charlock, quack grass. canada
thistle, wild oats. clover and alfalfa
dodder. field dodder. or corn cookie.
The only exception to this prohibition
is the sale OF seed for export outside
the state. and sales by the grower
upon his own premises for seeding by
the purchaser.
Other weed seed. sand. chaff. dirt
or broken seeds or seeds not capable
of terminating are classed as impuri-
ties, and when present in an aggreg-
ate Of more than two per cent. the
seeds may be legally sold only when
tagged or labelled to show the per-
centage of each impurity present.
There are special provisions of the
statute defining adulteration of blue
grass. orchard grass. red clover. and
rape seeds; also prohibiting the sale
of seeds not true to name.
Standards of purity and germina-
bility are established and penalty
fixed for sale of seeds not conforming
to the standard. Such seeds may be
sold if labelled to show percentage
of purity ana germinability.
The statute requires the Food and
Dairy Commissioner to cause to be
analysed any sample of agricultural
seed submitted to him. A fee of if
ty cents for each sample is fixed.
A competent man has been secured
for this work and returns can be
promptly made.
The Importance of sale and use Of
good seed. free from weeds is so great
that dealers and purchasers can we'll
afford to use every effort to keep and
use only that which conforms to the
law. Growers of seed take notice
that this law will be enforced and
that clean pure seed will be at pre-
MUM.
Yours,
H. R. WRIGHT.
Commissioner.
