Stamp Necessary
On Package Seed
???
Raleigh?-Any wholesaler o 1 pack
ige seed making shipments to North
Carolina merchants are required by
aw to purchase and affix inspection
tamps, "and merchants informed to
he contrary are being misled," D.
i. Coltrane, assistant to the Commis
ioner of Agriculture, announced to
lay
Meanwhile, the seed inspection
orce of the State Department of
tgriculture is planning an intensive
ampeign against dealers in package
eed to which inspection stamps have
lot been attached.
"The 1941 Seed Act passed by the
JeneraTAssembly places the lespui
ibility of securing inspection stamps
or package seed on the wholesaler
ihipping seed into the State," Col
rane explained. "Stop sale orders
vill be issued immediately where
package seed are found without in
ipection stamps."
Four wholesalers of package seed
ire complying with the inspection
itamp provisions of the Seed Law.
'Other wholesalers," Coltrane em
phasized, "are assuming an indif
ferent attitude to the law and some
merchants are being misinformed as
lo the requirements under the in
ipection stamp provisions of the
ict."
The provision of the Seed Law, re
luiring that inspection stamps be
iffixed by wholesalers on package
seed shipped into the State, follows:
Marines Are Still A
Gallant Crew In War

"A $1 inspection stamp shall be
urchased from the Department of
.griculture for each 72 dozen pack
gee of vegetable or flower seeds, or
raction thereof. The said stamp shall
e secured by the producer, grower,
>bber or other person, firm or cor
oration shipping such seed into the
tate befoe shipment to agent or re
liler, and shall be furnished to said
gent or retailer for attachment to

Resident wholesale distributors of
ackage seed are also charged with
te responsibility of attaching in
jection stamps to each unit (72
ackage box or fraction thereof) of
?red for sale in the State.

Many sons of Nippon went to the 1i

The motto of the Marine, "Semper
