Musty Hay Must Not be Sold or
Shipped

Under the National Food and Drug
Act. which was passed in 1906, It should
be known by all that it is unlawful to
ship or sell mouldv or musty or de
cave d hav. when it is to be used for
feeding purposes. Such hay is subject
to seizure and confiscation An inquiry
made at the Department Of Agriculture,
in Washington d. c., from Indiana,
in reference 10 the question, brought the
following reply:
Section Z, Of the National Food and
Drugs Acts, In the case of foods. gives
the various conditions under which any
food product, including hays, is to be
considered. The sixth paragraph of the
section just quoted, would, in our opin-
ian cover hays, which were musty,
mouldy or completely DESTROYED. The
fifth paragraph would especially apply
in the case of hays, to those cases where,
either through the action OF moulds or
the process of decomposition substances
had developed in the hays, which render
the same injurious TO the general
health.
