The laboratories of the
Pennsylvania Agriculture
Department's Bureau of
Plant Industry, m testing the
seed from the Ohio Com
pany, found evidence of
incomplete labeling con
cerning the presence of
noxious weed seeds at a
prohibited level as well as
false labeling in regard to
the presence of pure seed,
Shelhamer noted. He added
that his department’s fin
dings were the major basis
for the alleged violations in
the court case.
“The Federal Seed Act, a
truth-in-labeling law, is
designed to protect farmers
and other consumers when
they buy seed shipped
through interstate com
merce,- ’ Shelhamer
declared.
The Agriculture Secretary
said it was his intention to
see that the Bureau of Plant
Industry “would not only
continue its fine past record
in farmer-consumer
protection but would extend
every effort to improve upon
that record.”
