Famine, Saturday, October 9,1962 WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Department of Agriculture is proposing to revise regulations to eliminate the requirement that diverter-type samplers be used for certain types of grain shipments. If adopted, the proposal would allow the use of any sampling method approved by USDA’s Federal Grain Inspection Service for bulk or sacked grain inspected for domestic barge shipments and export railcar and truck ship ments, and for sacked grain in spected for export cargo ship ments. The diverter-type sampler would only be required for export cargo shipment of bulk grain. “Under present regulations, beginning Jan. 1, 1983, a diverter type mechanical sampler must be used on these kinds of grain shipments; otherwise, a statement must be included on the inspection certificate indicating the samples may not be as representative as those obtained with a diverter-type sampler,” said Kenneth A. Gilies, administrator of USDA’s Federal Grain Inspection Service. ATTENTION DAIRYMEN NEW PRODUCT Are you having trouble with mastitis in your cows, and throwing out the milk?
