ABOUT COTTON SEED
Some complaints have been
received by State Food Admin
istrator, Hapip Williams in re
gard to damaged cotton seed
resulting from rains and early
frost. This has caused indis
criminate dockage from the
value offered for prime seed.
Therefore as a part of the
stabilization program recom
mended by the cotton seed
producers, and accepted by
the United States Food Admin
istration, the cotton seed in
dustry section has formulated j
a standard plan regarding the ;
dockage for damaged seed as
follows:
No deduction may be made
for foreign matter except
when such foreign matter is in
excess of 1 per cent of the to
tal weight.
Deduction in excess of one
percent may be made for ac
tual weight of such excess on
a basis of the delivered price
of the seed.
No deduction shall be made !
for damaged or immature seed /
except for damage or imma
turity in excess of ten per cent.
Any deduction for damaged
or immature seed in excess of!
ten per cent shall be at the
rate of not more than 25 per
cent per ton for each one per
cent of such damaged or im
mature seed.
These rules are for the pro
tection of ginners, dealers a^d
crushers of cotton seed alike.
If fairly applied, the producer
will still receive full value for
his product. By using care,
the dockage at the gin should
be the same as the dockage at
the oil mill on any certain lot
of seed.
