GAME OF DEALERS
ST0PPEDBY BOARD
Facts as to Adulteration of Seeds
Must Be Printed on
Labels.

Important changes in the rules regu-
lating the sale of agricultural seeds
under the new law were made yes
terday by the state Board OF Agri-
culture. Since the law went into eff
lect on September II, the Department
OF Agriculture has been working under
the rules adopted by a committee OF
the State board.
Under the terms OF the new law re-
curing the inspection OF seeds offered
for sale in this State, 1t was required
that certain standard be conformed
to. Those seeds which had not more
than the minimum of adulteration are
entitled to be labeled Standard" 1t
is found. however, that some dealers
have been working of other SEEDS
without putting the percentage of
adulteration on them. They have
adopted the practice OF printing at
the bottom of the label the statement
that the seeds are not guaranteed. and
that the purchaser must take his
chances as to the contents.
The State Board of Agriculture
would not stand for this condition. 1t
was therefore decreed yesterday that
nothing shall be printed on the labels
save such matter as is authorized ana
required by the regulations of the
board This means that the nature Of
must be plainly printed on all labels,
except as 70 standard" seeds
With this exception. the rules were
left in the main as adopted by the
committee.
After approving accounts and trans
acting some minor routine business,
the board adjourned

Moving Staken Over Public Rocks.

AT further meeting of the State
Commission of Fisheries yesterday the

Accomac is said to be much the same
as that at the mouth OF the James.

encroached with their boundary stakes
on public ground, while the planters
claim that the tonsers have been
making depredations on private beds.

order and no effort to pull up stakes.

value both to Virginia and to the con-
ference.
