Description: For some years government and private agencies have been developing buying guides of various kinds. An attempt is made here to describe those which are of special interest to the ultimate consumer--that person who is buying things on the retail market for his own or his family's use.

The guides discussed in this publication are chiefly those established by federal and national agencies. No effort has been made to include all of the many State regulations and grading systems which apply only to products sold within the State concerned, although in a few instances State grades have been mentioned.
Notes: Contribution from Bureau of Home Economics.
