Synopsis
Excerpt from Fertilizer Inspection
The law regulating the sale Of commercial fertilizers in this State calls for two bulletins each year. The first Of these contains the analyses Of the samples received from the manu facturer guaranteed to represent, within reasonable limits, the goods to be placed upon the market later. The second bulletin contains the analyses Of' the samples collected in the open market by a representative Of the Station.
The analyses Of the manufacturer's samples for this year were published in March. The present bulletin contains the analyses Of the samples collected by the representative Of the Director of the Station.
The figures which are given as the percentages Of valuable ingredients guaranteed by the manufacturers are the minimum percentages Of the guarantee. If, for instance, the guarantee is 2 to 3 per cent Of nitrogen, it is evident that the dealer cannot be held to have agreed to furnish more than two per cent and so this percentage is taken as actual guarantee. The figures under the head Of found are those showing the actual composition Of the samples.

The book also includes a description of the state's fertilizer law, which regulated the sale and use of commercial fertilizers. This law required manufacturers to provide detailed information about the composition of their products, and it also established penalties for violations. The law was designed to protect farmers from fraud and to ensure that they were getting the nutrients they needed for their crops.
