Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1917-08-29

In compliance with the provisions
of Section 4452. Of General Statutes
of 1913, as amended by Chapter 2S4,
Laws of 1917, the Board of Grain APP
peals at Minneapolis and the Board of
Grain Appeals at Duluth met in joint
session at Minneapolis this l4th day
of June, 1917. and established the fol
lowing grades of grain, which shall
be known as the Minnesota Grades
Owing to the fact that the federal
government has established grades for
corn and all classes OF wheat so that
all interstate shipments must be grad
ed according to these standards, we,
in order to avoid the confusion OF a
double standard and dual inspection,
deem it advisable to adopt these stand
ards. The said grain standards pub
lished in the Government Service and
Regulatory Announcements No. %, is
sued March 81, 1917, are hereby adopt
ed and made part of the Minnesota
Grades.
