COMMERCIAL FERTILIZERS.    
In this bulletin are published the names of all fertilizers I
that have been entered under the new law for sale in the State,
together witl1 the analysis of each, given in the affidavit of
the manufacturer as the lowest percentages which each fer-
tilizer will contain as put on the market. This information is
published now for the use of farmers in the fall season, but at  
the end of the year we will publish all the analyses that have
been made, side by side with the manufacturers' guaranteed _
analysis, and the estimated value per ton calculated fro1n r  
each, as required by law. The analyses of all fertilizers en— ‘ it
tered this year before the new law went into effect have been i `i
published in Bulletin 75. I
FERTILIZER LAW. M  
The present law regulating the sale of fertilizers has been il
' ‘ published in Bulletin jg, copies of which will be furnished on ` V.
application, but we desire again to call attention to some of its i
provisions which most concern purchasers of fertilizers.
I if FREE .-XNAIXSES FOR FAIUIERS. The law provides for i l
free analyses to be made at the Station for the benefit of pur- · i
chasers in order to see that the goods sold are up to the guar- °
` antee of their manufacturers. Any purchaser of a fertilizer,  
who is vw! mz agmf 0r a’m/wg may take a sample of the same,  
under proper regulations, and have it analyzed at tl1e Station
free, a11d such purchaser shall not be required to give tl1e
name of the fertilizer or of the person from whom it was
bought until after the analysis has been made and reported,
but after the purchaser has received the report of analysis he
must give the Director all information about the fertilizer that
