Right of Appeal.

When grain shipped in interstate or
foreign commerce has been inspected
as required by the act, any interested
party may, either with of witohut rein
spection, appeal the question of its
grade to the Secretary of Agriculture.
The Secretary of Agriculture is au-
thorized to determine the true grade
of the grain, and his findings are made
prima facie evidence of that fact in
suits between the parties in Federal
courts. Reasonable fees may be
charged for hearing disputes and APP
peals. When appeals are sustained,
such fees are to be refunded. Every
person employed to inspect and grade
grain for shipment in interstate or
foreign commerce is prohibited from
certifying the grain according to the
official grain standards, unless he
holds an unsupported and unrevoked
license issued by the Secretary of
Agriculture.

Penalties.

Any licensed inspector who know
ingly inspects or grades improperly
grain shipped in interstate or foreign
commerce, or knowingly gives any
false certificate of grade, or accepts a
bride for neglect or improper per-
Torrance of duty, may also be pun
ished by fine or Imprisonment or both.
Similar punishment may be imposed
upon other persons who violate certain
portions of the act, particularly those
with reference to the inspection by
licensed inspector of grain shipped in
interstate or foreign commerce.
An appropriation of $3.50, 900 is made
for the enforcement of the act.
The necessary rules and regulations
will be prepared and published at
the earliest possible date, in order that
persons interested may have an op-
portunity to become familiar with
them before any of the standards be
come effective.
Objects Sought in the Act.
The benefits which the oct seeks to
confer are described in the language
used in the annual report of 1914 of
the secretary of Agriculture with par
Iticular reference to the establishment

from Turkish economists themselves.
according to the German Oriental Cor
respondence Bureau. The increase in
the duty on sugar to 30 to 40 per cent
ad yalorem, with the intention of
fostering sugar-beet cultivation, for
instance, is declared to have been a
mistake as the prevailing dryness of
the climate makes Turkish soil ILL
adopted to growing sugar beets, and
the result of the duty therefore will
be merely to increase the price of
sugar.
Similar criticism is made against
duties of 20 to go per cent ad valorem
On maize, barley, wheat and rice. The
critics say the soil and climate of
Turkey are better adopted for grow
ing far more valuable crops, and es-
pecially cotton, than for the grains
named. The result of the high duties,
they say, will be that cotton and other
valuable products will be neglected in
favor of products of less value and
even the latter will be of poor quality.
Industrial circles are also inclined
to criticize the duties on many man
ufaetured articles as too low. These
articles, they say, can be made in
Turkey as well and as cneaply as
elsewhere, but the infant industries
now existing need encouragement

ii standards for corn:

Grades for that grain-lf generally
adopted and uniformly applied
throughout the country, will simplify
the relations between producers,
dealers, and consumers. Under these
grades, fairly user, the grower or
shipped of superior quality of grain
will be in position to demand from
the buyer the fair value to which the
quality of his product entities him, On
the other hand, the producer Of a pro-
duct of inferior quality will receive a
lower return.
The beneficial influences upon agri-
culture of uniform system of grad
ing staple crop products will be very
great through the financial inventive
afforded the farmer to improve the
quality of his product by the careful
seleotlon of varieties, skillful culture
and adequate and effective methods of
harvesting, handling, and protecting it
while in his hands

VETERAN GOVERNOR HITS
HUSTINGS ON TOUR OF STATE

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. Ex-Governor
Nat E. Harris left Atlanta today on
speaking tour which will carry him
over the major portion of the state and
keep him going until election day on
September 18th. The governor will
travel by automobile a good deal of
the time and will make an average of
nearly three speeches a day. This
strenuous program, in the opinion of
his friends, will be a complete answer
to the reports of his feeble health
which some of his opponents attempted
to put in circulation at the outset of
the gubernatorial campaign.

Licensing Inspectors.

Any person who presents satisfac-
tory evidence of competency may be
licensed as an Inspector under the act.
In states which have or may hereafter
have state grain inspection depart
ments, the Secretary of Agriculture is
required to issue licenses to persons
authorized and employed to inspect
and grade grain under the laws of
such states. Licensed inspectors and
persons employed by the Secretary of
Agriculture for carrying out the pro-
visions of the act are prohibited from
having any interest in any grain ele-
yator or warehouse, or in the merch-
andising of grain, or from being en-
ployed by any person owning or
operating any grain elevator or ware
house. Licensed inspectors are re-
quired to keep records of a.! grain in
spected by them and to make detailed
reports to the Secretary of Agricul-
ture. The license of any inspector
found to be incompetent, or to have is
sued any false certificates OF grade, or
otherwise to have violated any provis-
ion of the act, may be suspended or
revoked by the Secretary of Agricud-
ture.

Law Enacted Which AHows An
Official Stand For Grain Now

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 22.-The
United States Grain Standards Act,
which gives the Secretary of Agricul-
trre authority to establish, as soon as
nay be, official grain standards appli-
cable to grain shipped in interstate or
fareign commerce, became law on
August II. 1916.
The Act authorizes the Secretary of
Agriculture to investigate the handling
ard grading of grain and to establish,
as soon as may be, standards for corn,
wheat, rye, oats, barley, flaxseed and
ether grains. Not less than 80 days
public notice must be given in advance
of the date on which any such standard
becomes effective.
Whenever such standards are estab-
ished for any grain, the Act forbids the
shipment or delivery for shipment, in
interstate or foreign commerce origin
ating in the United States, of any such
srain which is sold, offered for sale, or
consigned for sale by grade, unless it
IS inspected and graded by licensed
inspector, either at the place of ship
ment, at a point in transit, or at the
destination. In case no licensed in
srector is located either at the point Of
shipment or at the point Of destination.
