APPROPRIATION AND EXPENDITURES.
Your attention is called to the considerable difference
between the sums carried in the "Pure Food and Drugs
Law" (Section 10 and 11, $25,500.00); and $19,700.00-
the sum estimated as necessary in the budget prepared
by this Division; accepted by the Appropriation Com-
mittee, and fixed by the Legislature, for the support of
the Chemical Division, in the execution of the Pure Food,
Fertilizer, Stock Feed and Cotton Seed Meal Laws, per
annum, from July 1st, 1913, to June 30th, 1915--a differ-
ence of $5,800.00 per annum in excess of the budget.
This $19,700.00, together with $2,500.00, appropriated
for the expenses for Citrus Fiuit Inspection, fixes the
total appropriation for the Chemical Division, per annum,
July 1, 1913, to June 30, 1914, at............. $22,500.00

SUMMARY OF
ANALYTICAL REPORT, 1913.
The following analyses were made during the year:
Official samples fertilizers ....................... 58
Special samples fertilizers (sent in by citizens).... 272
Official samples feed stuff ....................... 217
Special samples feed stuff (sent in by citizens).... 26
Official food and drug samples ................... 151
Special food and drug samples (sent in by citizens) 56
Official samples citrus fruit ..................... 5
Special samples citrus fruit (sent in by citizens).. 188
W ater samples ................................. 26
Miscellaneous samples (sent in by citizens)........ 100
Total number analyses ...................... 1099
It will be noted that the "Special Sample" of fertilizer,
feeds, foods and drugs, sent in by citizens of the State,
has materially increased, showing an increased demand
on the part of the citizen for specific information on these
subjects, of such vital importance-economical and other-
wise.
The Florida Law is peculiar in this respect, permitting
the submission of such samples by the citizen, only re-
quiring that the sample shall be properly drawn, duly
authenticated, and properly transmitted, in order to pre-
vent the submission of spurious or fake samples, as pro-
vided by Section 12, of the Pure Food and Drugs Law.

Special samples feed stuff ........................ 26
Total analyses Feed Department ................ .244
The average composition of the official samples was as
follows:
Starch and

guarantee 0.20% (twenty points-, as follows:
In Protein ................. 137 samples, or... 53.91%
In Starch and Sugar........115 samples, or.... 57.78%
In Fats ................... 90 samples, or....44.55%
There was a deficiency of 0.20% (twenty points), as
follows:
In Protein ................. 13 samples, or.... 6.91%
In Starch and Sugar........ 70 samples, or.... 35.17%

FOODS AND DRUGS.
A. M. Henry, B. S., Analyst to June 10.
S. Heimburger, M. S., B. S.
Official food and drugs samples .................. 151
Special food and drugs samples .................... 60
Official citrus fruit samples ....................... 5
Special citrus fruit samples ...................... 188
W ater samples ................. ................ 26
Total food and drugs samples....................430
Official Food Samples-Legal ..............117 or 75%
Official Food Samples-Illegal............. 34 or 22%
Official Food Samples-Passed............. 5 or 3%
The 34 illegal samples were principally misbranded,
failing to state net weight or measure.
Adulterated and misbranded........................ 3
M isbranded ...................................... 34
Immature citrus fruit samples reported.............. 4
Those samples found adulterated or misbranded have
been reported to the proper officer. In all cases the dealers
and manufacturers have corrected the labels by placing
the proper labels on the goods or by withdrawing the
offending materials from the market.
Few prosecutions have been found necessary to enforce
the provisions of the law.
Only such materials as are of public interest are
analyzed by the State Laboratory, such as are directed by
the Pure Food, the Fertilizer, and Stock Feed Law.
There are no fees or charges of any kind made by the
State Laboratory.
The State Laboratory is not permitted to compete with
commercial laboratories.
No commercial work of any kind is accepted.
The State Laboratory does not analyse samples for
individual account wherein the public is not interested.
Such samples should be sent to a commercial laboratory.
FERTILIZERS.
It will be noted that the average of the officially drawn
samples of fertilizer show a slightly less guaranteed per-
centage in Ammonia as compared to the season of 1912,
the average guarantee for 1912 being 4.05%, for 1913,
3.85%.
A decrease is also shown in Available Phosphoric Acid.
The 1912 average guarantee was 6.18%, that for 1913
was 5.76%.
In Potash, the average guarantee increased. In 1912,
it was 6.80%, while for 1913, it was 7.49%.
The excesses-.20% above guarantee-have materially
increased, while deficiencies-.20% below guarantee-
have proportionately decreased, showing a more careful
manipulation of the raw materials, better grinding and
mixing, and particularly more efficient chemical and
technical control of factories, most, if not all, have
modern grinding and mixing apparatus and employ com-
petent chemists to check raw materials and manufactured
goods.
The average guaranteed "state value" of the "official
sample" has decreased as compared to the season of 1912,
$1..97 per ton.
The official analysis shows a decrease of $1.96 per ton
as compared to 1912.
The average excess value of all the official samples above
"guarantee" is $1.76 per ton.
Practically 6% in excess of guaranteed. value.'
Ammoniates.
It will be noted that the market prices of all organic
Ammoniates have materially increased, while nitrates and
ammoniated salts are quoted at practically the same
figures as for 1912.
The synthetic nitrates and ammoniates-"Cyanamid,"
Nitrate of Lime, etc., are now being offered in competi-
with natural nitrates, and ammoniates, and will doubt-
less in the future have considerable influence on the prices
of fixed nitrogen for fertilizing and technical purposes.
Special Samples of Fertilizers.
There was an increase in "special samples" sent in by
purchasers, under Section 9, of the Fertilizer Law, from
186 in 1912, to 274 in 1913; being practically 35 per
cent increase in the "special sample," showing an in-
creased demand by the consumer for an exact knowledge
of the commercial and agricultural value of goods pur-
chased afforded him by the Florida Law; a feature pecu-
liar to the Florida Law, permitting the purchaser to send
in a properly drawn and duly authenticated sample of
goods purchased (feeds and fertilizers) and without cost,
to obtain an analysis of the same.
It is needless to say that the "special sample," when
properly and legally drawn, as the Law directs, affords
the consumer immediate information as to the "state
value" of fertilizers or feeds purchased, giving him the
same protection demanded by the manufacturer, who
"purchases his raw materials on guarantee, and pays for
them on analysis."
THE NEW MINERAL FERTILIZER.
Early in July of this year, the attention of this division
was called to this material. A grower of the State sent
tags and literature lauding the value of this so-called
"New Mineral Fertilizer," asking information as to its
fertilizing value.
Being aware of the history of this material and the
effort to impose it upon the credulity of the farmers of
the country for years past, under various names or
brands, by a campaign of pseudo-scientific misinforma-
tion, notably by the 'Professor of Polaric Nutrition of the
Divine Science University," etc., that "Bread from
Stones," "Stone Meal," "Mineral Fertilizer," has been
fully tested and condemned as worthless as a fertilizer by
competent agriculturalists, scientific and practical, In-
spectors were at once directed to procure samples of the
goods, specimens of tags, circulars and literature.
The only plant foods specified on the tags are Phos-
phoric Acid 0.23% and Potassium Oxide 2.09%, the re-
mainder of the analysis simply showing small percentages
of soda, lime, magnesia, Iron Oxide, with 72.37% of Silica
(sand) and Alumina (clay), there being no free sulfur in
the rock.
On July 12th, a sample was analyzed, by the official
methods of the "Association of Official Agricultural
Chemists"-the only recognized methods used by agri-
cultural chemists, and agricultural experiment stations,
which analysis showed:
Total Phosphoric Acid................. 0.06%
Available Phosphoric Acid............... None.
Water Soluble Potash (K20) .........'... None.
This sample was obtained from Ft. Pierce; another
sample from Cocoanut Grove, bearing the same tag and
accompanied by the same literature, was analyzed August
31st. This analysis showed:
Total Phosphoric Acid................. 0.15%
Available Phosphoric Acid............... None.
Potash (K20) ........................ None.
That this matter should be fully investigated and no
injustice done, parts of these samples were sent to the
Florida Agricultural Experiment Station for analysis.
The report of this analysis, by Prof. S. E. Collison,
Chemist of the Florida Agricultural Experiment Station,
shows:
Total Phosphoric Acid................. 0.04%
Available Phosphoric Acid............... None.
Water Soluble Potash (K20) .......... 0.001%
The material being simply "micaceous shist," the
Potassium, Phosphorous, Soda, Calcium and Magnesia
being combined as Silicates in the rock, the sulfur as Sul-
phides, were insoluble in the strongest boiling acids.
The only two "plant foods" claimed by the tag, Phos-
phate and Potash, being absolutely unavailable silicates,
on further investigation it has been shown that this ma-
terial has been exploited on various occasions previously
under various names-"Stone Meal," "The New England
Mineral Fertilizer," "The New Mineral Fertilizer," and
has been declared worthless as a fertilizer and insecticide
by various agricultural experiment stations from Maine
to Florida, and by the Chemical Bureau, of the U. S.
Dept. of Agriculture, and exposed by various agricultural
journals, notably the "Rural New Yorker," and the
"Southern Ruralist"-both reputable and responsible
journals.
Circular letters were sent out by this division to the
Press and citizens of the State warning them of the utter
worthlessness of this so-called "New Mineral Fertilizer,"
the material being as insoluble as ordinary glass, which
contains from 3 to 20 per cent of Potassium (or soda) as
silicates, and is equally as soluble, or available, as this
silicate (Igneous sandstone-.
There are millions of acres of soil in Florida that con-
tain (on a dry basis) two to three per cent of nitrogen,
which can be readily made available. Other large areas
of soil, with from one half to three per cent of phos-
phates, enormous deposits of low grade phosphate of
lime and alumina, with one or more per cent available,
and seven or more per cent insoluble phosphates (the
waste of phosphate plants, in excellent mechanical con-
dition, that can be had for hauling) ; while vast deposits
of "soft phosphates," with 1.50 per cent or more available,
and 15 to 25 per cent insoluble phosphate, that can be
had for digging and hauling. With such materials;
abundant nitrogen, immense quantities of phosphates-
well distributed-having large actual plant foods readily
made available, it is neddless to say that it is folly to
purchase absolutely inert material of less fertilizing value
than good average Florida soil, which can be purchased
by the acre, from twenty-five to fifty dollars per acre, of
which six inches off the surface will afford 1,000 tons of
material superior to this "New Mineral Fertilizer" in
fertilizing value.
At the above price per acre, the cost per ton would be
2.5 to 5 cents. The actual value of this "New Mineral
Fertilizer," according to present market prices, of avail-
able phosphate, and water soluble potash being abso-
lutely nothing, as it contains no available plant food
whatever.
The principal stock in trade of this concern is the
credulity of its victims, and abuse of all scientists, agri-
cultural chemists, experiment stations, and manufactur-
ers of commercial fertilizers.
Threats of suits for slander and libel have been made,
none however, instituted.
After full investigation and on advice of the Attorney
General, the following order was prepared by the State
Chemist, and issued by the Agricultural Department:
Press Bulletin
State of Florida
Agricultural Department
Tallahassee, November 15, 1913.
NOTICE TO DEALERS, AGENTS AND CONSUMERS
OF COMMERCIAL FERTILIZERS, INSECTICIDES,
AND FUNGICIDES.
It having been shown by analysis by the Florida State
Laboratory, the Laboratory of the Florida Agricultural
Experiment Station, and the Bureau of Chemistry of the
United States Department of Agriculture, together with
those of a number of other State Agricultural Experi-
ment Stations, that the "New Mineral Fertilizer," made
by the New Mineral Fertilizer Company, of Boston,
Massachusetts, can not be classed as either a fertilizer,
insecticide or fungicide, and that the analysis quoted on
the tags and in the literature issued by the said com-
pany is misleading and calculated to deceive, the material
actually having no nitrogen (Ammonia), soluble Potash,
nor available Phosphoric Acid or Sulfur in its composi-
tion; and on being advised by the Attorney General of
the State of Florida that the sale of this material in the
State as a fertilizer, insecticide or fungicide, under the
laws of Florida, is illegal, notice is hereby given that the
"New Mineral Fertilizer," made by the New Mineral Fer-
tilizer Company, of Boston, Mass., can not be legally sold
in the State of Florida.
Threfore, all dealers, or agents are duly notified that
the sale, or offering for sale, of this "New Mineral Fer-
tilizer," as a fertilizer, insecticide, or fungicide, will sub-
ject them to the penalties of Chapter 4983, Laws of
Florida.

Commissioner of Agriculture.
R. E. ROSE,
State Chemist.
COMMERCIAL FEEDING STUFF.
There has been a slight decrease in the average value
of feed stuffs-0.52% in protein; 0.13% in fats; and an
increase of 2.02% in starch and sugar (nitrogen free ex-
tract) attributed to the larger number of sugar and
molasses feeds now used.
A larger percentage of excess-0.20% above guarantee
is found, with a corresponding decrease in deficiencies-
0.20% below guarantee.
The market price of mixed feed, as well as whole grain,
has materially increased-corn, from $30 to $35 per ton.
There were imported into the State 34,209 tons of
mixed feed (exclusive of corn, oats and hay, not subject
to inspection), which at $37.50 per ton, shows our people
expended the enormous sum of $1,282,837-for mixed
feeds, in addition to the large quantities of corn, oats and
hay imported.
In previous reports I have called attention to this
abnormal condition, and to the fact that all such feeds-
hay, corn and oats and mixed feed-could be produced
economically in Florida, of superior quality to that im-
ported.
Florida Forage crops are equal to, and in many in-
stances superior to that imported, while in her cotton
seed meal, beggar weed, cow peas and velvet beans, she
has superior protein feds. Japanese cane, rice, natal,
rhodes and native grasses, carbohydrates of superior
quality, can also be produced in large amount, at small
cost, for culture and harvest.
No state has a greater variety of pasture and forage
crops, of excellent quality, that can be, and are pro-
duced at minimum cost; this enormous annual sum paid
paid for imported feed stuff, of less value per ton, can
and should be produced at home, to say. nothing of the
cost of freight and profits to importers, saved by this
home production.
IMMATURE CITRUS FRUIT.
There were but few attachments, or seizures, under this
Law, during the season of 1913.
By far the larger number of our citrus growers and
shippers are law abiding and heartily in favor of the
Law.
A large number of such provided themselves with the
necessary apparatus by which to determine the maturity
of their fruit under the standard fixed by the Legislature,
and thus informed themselves as to the maturity of their
fruit before shipment.
The Citrus Fruit Inspectors, Messrs. J. B. Pylant,
Bartow; W. J. Edwards, Ocala; J. W. Knight, of Floral
City; and N. O. Penny, of Vero, all practical orange grow-
ers, competent, reliable and trustworthy men, of good
common sense, familiar with citrus fruit, performed their
rather delicate and onerous duties, to the satisfaction of
the department, and the vast majority of the growers.
Only in such cases, wherein a very palpable effort to
evade the Law was evident, were attachments made.
With but one exception the Inspectors' "field tests"
were upheld by analysis by the State Laboratory. In this
case, the Inspector's "field test" varied but 0.06% from
the analytical results under laboratory conditions, show-
ing the accuracy of the "field test," and skill of the In-
spector in its application.
In those cases where attachments were ordered, the
fruit unquestionably contained a much larger percentage
of acid than allowed by law, and was undoubtedly "imma-
ture and unfit for consumption."
Replevin of Immature Fruit.
The replevin of illegal, adulterated, misbranded and
deleterious food stuffs, attached by Inspectors and placed
in the custody of the Sheriff of the County, has in the
case of citrus fruit, made the attempt to enforce the law,
farcical.
I would respectfully call your attention to this evident
miscarriage of justice, and the necessity of having the
proper officer resist the replevin of such goods found to
be illegal, and under the law unfit for consumption.
In this connection, I am pleased to say, the position of
this Division of the Agricultural Department, is sustained
by the Attorney General, who, in an opinion dated Novem-
ber 18, says:
"In view of this rule and the great public im-
portance of the question, I would suggest thai
the proper course for your Department (the
Agricultural Department) to pursue would be
to assume the statute valid until declared invalid
by the highest court of the State."
In view of the fact that goods attached by Inspectors,
under Section 8, of Chapter 6541-the Pure Food and
Drugs Law-and after analysis by the State Chemist,
showing them to be illegal, immature and unwholesome,
as defined in Chapter 6236, and Chapter 6515, Laws of
Florida, have been replevined, without resistance, and
sold or shipped for consumption, I respectfully call your
attention to this very important matter, on which depends
the proper enforcement of the Pure Food Law of the
State and the protection of our citizens from adulterated,
2--Bul.
misbranded, immature, unwholesome or deleterious foods
and drugs.
Operation of the Citrus Fruit Law.
During the inspection period-September 1st to Novem-
ber 5th-few shipments of immature citrus fruit were
made. Prices obtained were satisfactory, and the market
good. However, at the close of the Inspection period,
large shipments were made of unripe, immature fruit,
resulting in a disastrous reduction of prices, which af-
fected not only the inferior, immature fruit, but also
mature and desirable fruit.
That a "color test" is unreliable and misleading. de-
pending on personal opinion, prejudice, or interest, is
apparent. That the dual standard-"color and acid
test"-allows the shipment of immature fruit, has been
established by the experience of the season.
That the standard of maturity recommended by the
Commission, and approved by the various citrus growers
organizations, should be applicable to all fruit, irrespec-
tive of color, and that the inspection period should ex-
tend from September 1st to December 1st of each year,
has been fully demonstrated by this season's experience,
as clearly demonstrated by the exhaustive study of the
question by tie State Experiment Station, various com-
mercial laboratories and the State Laboratory.
Cost of Citrus Fruit Inspection.
The total cost of the inspection, from September 1st
to November 5th (two and one sixth months), for In-
spectors, including traveling expenses, apparatus and sup-
plies, was $2,134.96, or an average for each Inspector of
$200.81 (including apparatus and analytical work) per
month, leaving a balance of $365.04 in the fund appro-
priated. Considering the large territory covered, the
active \vork demanded, and its importance to the state's
principal industry, it has been very economical.
Recoinmendation..
I would recommend, therefore, that the standard of
1.30% of maximum acid for all oranges, and 1.75% for
all grapefruit, irrespective of color; as recommended by
the Commission, and approved by the organized orange
growers of the State; be made the legal standard. That
at least eight competent Inspectors be employed, the in-
spection districts being decreased in size proportionately,
and that the inspection period be extended to December
31st of each year.
FLORIDA MUCK LANDS
In all parts of the State are found muck beds, in areas
of from a few acres to tracts of hundreds or thousands
of acres. These lands are the accumulated vegetable
deposits of ages, composed of more or less decayed aquatic
growth, particularly saw grass, rushes, ferns and similar
plants. A large number of these muck beds are suscepta-
ble of perfect drainage.
When properly drained to a depth of not less than three
feet from the surface-the deeper the better-allowing the
air to replace the water, they rapidly decompose and be-
come productive, as do similar soils in all states of the
Union.
Many of these beds, however, can not be properly
drained. -The surface water may be removed (partial
drainage), leaving the surface dry at times, though the
sub-soil-one or two feet below the dry surface-is still
saturated with sour, stagnant water. Such partial drain-
age has lead to much disappointment and generally total
failure of ordinary crops.
Without perfect drainage to a depth of at least three
feet, such soils will not produce paying crops. However,
these lands may be made valuable as a manure, by proper
treatment, oxidation, or rotting, with the addition of
phosphate and potash they can be composted, and thus
become a manure equal to, and often superior to the
same quantity of good stable manure, a most valuable
addition to the surrounding sandy soil, adding not only
the nitrogen in the muck (Ammonia), but also the added
phosphate and potash, together with a large amount of
"humus," so generally required by our ordinary sandy
soils, thus adding to its water holding powers, and pro-
viding a medium for the growth of various useful bacteria,
necessary in all fertile soils, without which plant foods
can not be prepared nor assimulated.
Good average muck contains two to three per cent of
nitrogen on a dry basis. However, green, raw muck holds
from 60 to 90 per cent of water as dug. Hence it requires
12,000 to 18,000 pounds of raw muck to make a ton of
dry material. As it rots (or oxidizes) it parts with a
large portion of this water.
Decay can be hastened and the nitrogen made more
available by the addition of 500 pounds of 16 per cent
Acid Phosphate and 100 pounds of 50 per cent Sulfate
of Potash, to each cord of muck. The addition of 500
or more pounds of stable manure will hasten decomposi-
tion and add to the mass an abundance of the necessary
nitrogenous bacteria. The heap should be kept moist-
not allowed to heat, dry and "fire fang," turning it wher-
ever necessary, to prevent excessive heat. Such a prop-
erly built compost heap will yield a manure equal or
superior to the best stable manure, adding in addition to
the plant foods, nitrogen, phosphate and potash, also
humus-a necessary medium for the growth of the "ni-
tro-germs," absolutely essential in all fertile productive
soils, the added potash and phosphates being necessary
not only to assist in "breaking up" the muck, but also
as a medium for the growth of the "nitro-germs" or bac-
teria.
Peat, or muck, used as bedding for live stock of all
kinds, liberally spread in the barn yard, will largely add
to the compost heap, on the size and quality of which
largely depends the success of the farm, orchard, or grove,
and particularly the truck patch and garden.
Farmer's and Trucker's Bulletins.
I would suggest to the truckers, orchardists and farm-
ers of the State, particularly those who have recently come
into the State and are not familiar with Florida soils
and conditions, and the use of commercial fertilizers, so
necessary and so profitably used in the State, that they
write to the Florida Agricultural Experiment Station, at
Gainesville, Florida, for the various valuable bulletins
on subjects particularly fitted to Florida conditions. Also
to write to the Secretary of Agriculture, Washington,
D. C., for a list of Farmer's Bulletins, many of which
are devoted to Florida conditions. These publications
can be had free of cost on application and contain in-
formation of great value to the trucker, the orange grower,
the stock man and the farmer.
Respectfully submitted.
R. E. ROSE,
State Chemist.
SPECIAL SAMPLES
Florida is the only State in the Union that provides for
the "special sample," drawn by the consumer or purchaser,
under proper rules and regulations fixed by law-to be
sent to the State Laboratory for analysis free of cost.
Any citizen in the State who has purchased fertilizers or
feeds for his own use may draw a sample of the same,
according to law, and have the same analysed by the State
Chemist free of cost. And in case of adulteration or de-
ficiency he can, on establishing the fact, receive double
the cost of price demanded for the goods.
The law requires the "special samples" to be drawn in
a manner to prevent the submission of spurious samples;
rules and regulations are published in every Bulletin for
drawing and transmitting "special samples."
This special sample has been a most potent factor in
enforcing the law and discouraging the sale of adulter-
ated or misbranded goods.
Special samples of foods and drugs may also be sent to
the State Laboratory for analysis free of cost, when the
sample is properly drawn according to law. The neces-
sary instructions and blanks required to properly draw
and transmit samples of 'food and drugs" will be sent to
any citizen requesting the same.
"THE SPECIAL SAMPLE FURNISHES THE CON-
SUMER WITH THE SAME PROTECTION DEMAND-
ED BY THE MANUFACTURER, WHO BUYS HIS MA-
TERIALS ONLY UPON GUARANTEE AND PAYS
FOR THEM ACCORDING TO ANALYSIS, AND IS
PAID FOR BY THE CONSUMER OUT OF THE
FUNDS DERIVED FROM THE INSPECTION FEE OF
TWENTY-FIVE CENTS PER TON PAID ON FERTIL-
IZERS AND FEEDS SOLD IN THE STATE."
REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE TAKING AND
FORWARDING OF FERTILIZER OR COMMER-
CIAL FEEDING STUFF SAMPLES TO THE
COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE.
SECTION 15 OF THE LAWS.
Special samples of Fertilizers or Commercial Feeding
Stuffs sent in by purchasers, under Section 9 of the laws,
shall be drawn in the presence of two disinterested wit-
nesses, from one or more packages, thoroughly mixed, and
a FAIR SAMPLE OF TIE SAME OF NOT LESS THAN EIGHT
OUNCES (ONE-HALF POUND) SHALL BE PLACED IN A CAN OR
BOTTLE, SEALED AND SENT BY A DISINTERESTED PARTY TO
THE COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE AT TALLAHASSEE. NOT
LESS THAN EIGHT OUNCES, IN A TIN CAN OR BOTTLE, WILL
BE ACCEPTED FOR ANALYSIS. This rule is adopted to secure
fair samples of sufficient size to make the necessary deter-
minations, and to allow the preservation of a duplicate
sample in case of protest or appeal. These duplicate sam-
ples will be preserved for two months from date of cer-
tificate of analysis.
The State Chemist is not the proper officer to receive
special samples from the purchaser. The propriety of the
method of drawing and sending the samples as fixed by
the law is obvious.
The drawing and sending of special samples in rare
cases is in compliance with law. Samples are frequently
sent in paper packages or paper boxes, badly packed, and
frequently in very small quantity (less than ounce) ; fre-
quently there are no marks, numbers or other means of
identification; the postmark in some instances being
absent.
I would call the attention of those who desire to avail
themselves of this privilege to Sections 9 and 10 of the
law, which are clear and explicit.
Hereafter strict compliance with above regulations will
be required. The sample must not be less than one half
Sound, in a can or bottle, sealed and addressed to the
Commissioner of Agriculture. The sender, name. and ad-
dress must also be on the package, this rule applying to
special samples of fertilizers or commercial feeding stuff.
A onepound baking powder tin can, properly cleaned,
filled with a fairly drawn, well mixed sample taken from
several sacks, is a proper sample. It should be sealed and
addressed .to the Commissioner of Agriculture at Talla-
hassee. The sender's .name and address should also be
placed on the package. If more than one sample is sent,
the samples should be numbered so as to identify them.
All this should be done in the presence of the witnesses
and the package mailed or expressed by one of the
witnesses.
The tags off the sacks should be retained by the sender
to compare with the certiQcate of analysis when received,
and not sent to this office. The date of the drawing and
sending the sample, and names of the witnesses, should
also be retained by the sender; not sent to this office.
SOIL ANALYSIS.
We frequently have samples of soil sent in for analysis
and a request to advise as to the best methods of fertiliz-
ing.
Excepting in extreme cases, such as Heavy Clays, Pure
Sand and Muck Lands, there is but little information to
be derived from a soil analysis that would be of benefit to
farmers. So much depends on tilth, drainage, culture and
other physical conditions that an analysis made under
laboratory conditions is of little value.
A chemical analysis of a soil may indicate a verve fer-
tile soil, rich in plant food, while the facts are the soils
are not productive.
This is instanced by the rich Sawgrass muck lands and
river bottoms of the State that are fertile chemically, but
not productive until properly drained; also, by the arid
lands of the west, rich in the elements of plant food, but
not productive until irrigated.
Other soils, with less plant food, but on account of
proper physical conditions, culture and tilth, are exceed-
ingly productive.
The average of thousands of analysis of Florida soils
made by the Agricultural Experiment Station and.the
State Laboratory is as follows:
Nitrogen (per cent.) ........................... 0.0413
Potash (per cent.) ............... ...............0.0091
Phosphoric Acid (per cent.)................. ...0.1635
This is a fair average of all of the Norfolk and Ports-
mouth soil series of the State, which comprise by far the
greater portion of the State.
In this connection we quote from the report of the
Indiana Agricultural Experiment Station, Purdue Uni-
versity, Lafayette, Ind., 1908, as follows:
"SOIL ANALYSIS OF LITTLE VALUE IN SHOWING FER-
TILIZER REQUIREMENTS.-The Chemical Department is
called upon to answer hundreds of letters of inquiry iin
relation to agricultural chemical problems from people
all over the State. In this connection it might be well
to say that there is a widespread idea that the chemist
can analyze a sample of soil and, without further knowl-
edge of the conditions, write out a prescription of a fer-
tilizer which will fill the needs of that particular soil.
"The Experiment Station does not analyze samples of
soil to determine the fertilizer requirements. There is
no chemical method known that will show reliably the
availability of the plant food elements present in the soil,
as this is a variable factor, influenced by the kind of crop,
the type of soil, the climate and biological conditions;
hence, we do not recommend this method of testing soil."
The method recommended by the Indiana Station is
the field fertilizer test or plot system, in which long,
narrow strips of the field to be tested are measured off
side by side. The crop is planted uniformly over each.
Different fertilizers are applied to the different plots,
every third or fourth one being left unfertilized. The
produce from these plots is harvested separately and
weighed. In this manner the farmer can tell what fer-
tilizer is best suited for his needs. As climatic conditions
may influence the yield with different fertilizers, it is best
to carry on such tests for more than one year before draw-
ing definite conclusions. There is positively no easier
or shorter method of testing the soil that we feel safe in
recommending.
Soil can be gr iil\ improved by an intelligent rotation
of crops, the conservation of stable manure, and the use
of some kind of commercial fertilizer. Farmers need have
no fear that the proper application of commercial fer-
tilizer will injure the land.
WATER ANALYSIS.
We frequently analyze water for public use-city, town
and neighborhood supplies; springs and artesian wells in
which the public is interested; when some economic ques-
tion, boiler, laundry or other industrial use is to be
decided.
TWE DO NOT ANALYZE WATER FOR INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNT
WHEREIN THE PUBLIC IS NOT INTERESTED. SUCH SAMPLES
SHOULD BE SENT TO A COMMERCIAL LABORATORY. THE STATE
LABORATORY DOES NOT COMPETE WTIT COMMERCIAL LABORA-
TORIES.
Also we do not make bacteriological examinations nor
examinations for disease germs. Such examinations and
analyses are made by the State Board of Health at Jack-
sonville.
We do not make a sanitary analysis, nor a complete
quantitative determination (separating each mineral and
stating the quantity thereof).
Such an analysis would be costly in time and labor,
and of no real value to the inquirer. We determine the
total dissolved solids in the sample, and report them as
parts per 1,000,000, naming the principal ingredients in
the order of their predominance.
We find Calcium Carbonate (lime), Sodium Chloride
(salt-, Magnesium Sulphate (epsom salts), Silica (sand),
and Iron, is the general order of their predominance,
though on the coast, where the total dissolved solids
amounts to 5,000 or more parts per 1,000,000, Sodium
Chloride (salt) is the predominant substance.
From a knowledge of the chemical analysis of a, water,
unaccompanied by any further information, no conclusion
as to the potability and healthfulness of the water can
be deduced.
Therefore, we require the following information to be
given in regard to the source of the water.
(1). The source of the water: spring lake river,
driven well, dug well, bored well, artesian well, or flow-
ing well; and also the depth of the water surface below
the top of the soil, and in cased wells the depth of the
casing.
(2). The locality of the source of the water: town,
city or village; or the section, township and range.
(3). The proposed use of the water; city supply,
domestic use, laundry, boiler, irrigation or other in-
dustrial use.
(4). No sample of water will be analyzed unless the
name and address of the sender is on the package for
identification.
We require two gallons of cainh sample of water, in a
new jug, stopped with a new cork, and sent by prepaid
express. We will not accept any sample of water for
analysis not in a new jug. Vessels previously used for
other purposes are never properly cleaned for sending
samples of water for analysis. Corks, once used for other
substances (molasses, vinegar, whiskey, kerosene, etc.),
are never properly cleaned. In sampling a well water, the
stagnant water in the pump must first be pumped off.
The jug must first be rinsed with the water to be sampled,
emptied, and then filed. A sample of spring, river or lake
water is best taken (after rinsing the jug), by allowing
the jug to fill after immersion some distance under the
surface near the center of the body of water.
NOTE.-We find the waters of the State-springs, wells,
driven wells and artesian wells-generally very pure and
wholesome, with but little mineral impurity and that
such as is not harmful. Except in cases of gross care-
lessness, in allowing surface water to contaminate the
well or spring, the waters of the State are pure and whole-
some. The deep wells of the State are noted for their
purity and healthfulness.
ANALYSIS OF FOODS AND DRUGS.
Samples of Foods and Drugs are drawn under special
regulations. Application should be made to the Com-
missioner of Agriculture or State Chemist for the neces-
sary blanks, instructions, etc., for drawing and trans-
mitting samples of foods and drugs, including drinks of
all kinds.
COPIES OF LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS,
ANI) STANI)ARII)S.
Citizens of the State interested in fertilizers, foods and
drugs, and stock feed, can obtain, free of charge, the
respective Laws, including Rules and Regulations and
Standards, by applying to the Commissioner of Agricul-
ture or State Chemist. Application for the Quarterly
Bulletin of the State Department of Agriculture should
also be made to the Commissioner of Agriculture or
State Chemist. The Bulletins of the Florida Agricultural
Experiment Station can be had by application to the
Director at Gainesville.
INSTRUCTIONS TO MANUFACTURERS AND
DEALERS.
Each package of Commercial Fertilizer, and each pack-
age of Commercial Feeding Stuff, must have, securely
attached thereto, a tag with the guaranteed analysis re-
quired by law and the stamp showing the payment of the
inspector's fee. This provision of the law, Section 3 of
both laws-will be rigidly enforced.
Manufacturers and dealers will be required to properly
tag and stamp each package of Commercial Fertilizer or
Commercial Feeding Stuff under penalty as fixed in Sec-
tion 6 of both laws. Tags shall be attached to the top
end of each bag, or head of each barrel.
INSTRUCTION TO PURCHASERS.
Purchasers are cautioned to purchase no Commercial
Fertilizers or Commercial Feeding Stuff that does not
bear on each packa-ge an analysis tag with the guarantee
required by law, and the stamp showing the payment of
the inspector's fee. Goods not having the guarantee tag
and stamp are irregular and fraudulent; the absence of
the guarantee and stamp being evidence that the manu-
facturer or dealer has not complied with the law. With-
out the guarantee tag and stamp showing what the goods
are guaranteed to contain, the purchaser has no recourse
against the manufacturer or dealer. Such goods are sold
illegally and fraudulently, and are generally of little
value. All reputable manufacturers and dealers now
comply strictly with the law and regulations by placing
the guarantee tag and stamp on each package.
INSTRUCTIONS TO SHERIFFS.
The attention of Sheriffs of the various counties is
called to Section 3 of both laws, defining their duties.
This Department expects each Sheriff to assist in main-
taining the law and protecting the citizens of the State
from the imposition of fraudulent, inferior or deficient
Commercial Fertilizers or Commercial Feeding Stuffs.
REGULATION 42-ANALYSISES MADE BY STATE
LABORATORY.
Only such materials as are of public interest are
analyzed by the State Laboratory, such as are directed by
the Pure Food, the Fertilizer, and Stock Feed Law.
There are no fees or charges of any kind made by the
State Laboratory.
The State Laboratory is not permitted to compete with
commercial laboratories.
No commercial work of any kind is accepted.
The State Laboratory does not analyse samples for
individual account wherein the public is not interested.
Such samples should be sent to a commercial laboratory.
REGULATION 43-ANALYSES IN CRIMINAL
CASES.
The State Laboratory does not make post mortem
examinations, nor furnish evidence in criminal cases,
(except as provided by the Pure Food, Fertilizer, and
Stock Feed Laws). Such analyses and examinations are
made by specialists employed by the grand jury and pro-
secuting attorney, the cost being taxed as other criminal
costs, by the court.

STATE VALUATIONS.
For Available and Insoluble Phosphoric Acid, Ammonia
and Potash, for the Season of 1914.
Available Phosphoric Acid............... 5c a pound
Insoluble Phosphoric Acid............... lc a pound
Ammonia (or its equivalent in nitrogen) ..171c a pound
Potash (as actual potash, (KO).......... 5jc a pound
If calculated by units-
Available Phosphoric Acid............1.1.00 per unit

Ammonia (or its equivalent in nitrogen).. 3.50 per unit
Potash ................................ 1.10 per unit
With a uniform allowance of $1.50 per ton for mixing
and bagging.
A unit is twenty pounds, or 1 per cent., in a ton. We
find this to be the easiest and quickest method for calcu-
lating the value of fertilizer. To illustrate this, take
for example a fertilizer which analyzes as follows:
Available Phosphoric Acid... 6.22 per cent.x$1.00-$ 6.22
Insoluble Phosphoric Acid... 1.50 per cent.x .20- .30
Ammonia ......... ..........3.42 per cent.x 3.50- 11.97
Potash .....................7.23 per cent.x 1.10- 7.95
Mixing and Baging...........................- 1.50
Commercial value at sea ports..... ............. $27.94
Or a fertilizer analyzing as follows:
Available Phosphoric Acid......8 per cent.x$1.00-$ 8.00
Ammonia ...... ...............2 per cent.x 3.50- 7.00
Potash .......................2 per cent.x 1.10- 2.20
Mixing and Bagging.........................- 1.50
Commercial value at sea ports ..............$18.70
The State valuations are for cash for materials deliv-
ered at Florida seaports, and they can be bought in one-
ton lots at these prices at the date of issuing this Bulle-
tin. Where fertilizers are bought at interior points, the
additional freight to that point must be added.
The valuations and market prices in preceding illustra-
tions are based on market prices for one-ton lots.
STATE VALUES.
It is not intended by the "State valuation" to fix the
price or commercial value of a given brand. The "State
values" are the market prices for the various approved
chemicals and materials used in mixing or manufactur-
ing commercial fertilizers or commercial stock feed at
the date of issuing a Bulletin, or the opening of the
"season." They may, but seldom do, vary from the market
prices, and are made liberal to meet any slight advance
or decline.
They are compiled from price lists and commercial re-
ports by reputable dealers and journals.
The question is frequently asked: "What is 'Smith's
Fruit and Vine' worth per ton?" Such a question cannot
be answered categorically. By analysis, the ammonia,
available phosphoric acid and potash may be determined
and the inquirer informed what the cost of the necessary
material to compound to a ton of goods similar to "Smith's
Fruit and Vine" would be, using none but accepted and
well known materials of the best quality.
State values do not consider "trade secrets," loss on
bad bills, cost of advertisements and expenses of collec-
tions. The "State value" is simply that price at which
the various ingredients, necessary to use in compounding
37
a fertilizer, or feed, con be purchJased for cash in ton lots
at Florida seaports.
These price lists are published in this report, with the
"State values" for 1914 deducted therefrom.

FACTORS FOR CONVERSION.
To convert-
Ammonia into nitrogen, multiply by............ 0.824
Ammonia into protein, multiply by............ 5.15
Nitrogen into ammonia, multiply by............ 1.214
Nitrate of soda into nitrogen, multiply by...... 0.1647
Nitrogen into protein, multiply by.............. 6.25
Bone phosphate into phosphoric acid, multiply by 0.458
Phosphoric acid into bone phosphate, multiply by 2.184
Muriate of potash into actual potash, multiply by 0.632
Actual potash into muriate of potash, multiply by 1.583
Sulphate of potash into actual potash, multiply by 0.41
Actual potash into sulphate of potash, multiply by 1.85
Nitrate of potash into nitrogen, multiply by....... 0.139
Carbonate of potash into actual potash,-multiply by 0.681
Actual potash into carbonate of potash, multiply by 1.466
Chlorine, in "kainit," multiply potash (K20) by.. 2.33
For instance, you buy 95 per cent. of nitrate of soda
and want to know how niuch nitrogen is in it, multiply 95
per cent. by 0.1647, you will get 15.65 per cent. nitrogen;
you want to know how much ammonia this nitrogen is
equivalent to, then multiply 15.65 per cent. by 1.214 and
you get 18.99 per cent., the equivalent in ammonia.
Or, to convert 90 per cent. carbonate of potash into
actual potash (KO), multiply 90 by 0.681, equals 61.29
per cent, actual potash (K20).

FORMULAS.
There are frequent inquiries for formulas for various
crops, and there are hundreds of such formulas published;
and, while there are hundreds of "brands," the variations
in these grades are surprisingly little. Dozens of "brands"
put up by the same manufacturer are identical goods, the
only difference being in the name printed on the tag or
sack. A good general formula for field or garden might
be called a "vegetable formula," and would have the fol-
lowing: Ammonia, 31%; available phosphoric acid,
61%; and potash, 74%. The following formulas will
furnish the necessary plant food in about the above pro-
portion. I have purposely avoided the use of any fraction
of 100 pounds in these formulas to simplify them. Values
are taken from 'price lists furnished by the trade, January
1, 1912.
For cotton, corn, sweet potatoes and vegetables: Am-
monia, 34%; available phosphoric acid, 61%; potash.
71%.

COMMERCIAL STATE VALUES OF FEED STUFF
FOR 1914.
For the season of 1914 the following "State values" are
fixed as a guide to purchasers, quotation January 1.
These values are based on the current prices of corn,
which has been chosen as a standard in fixing the com-
mercial values; the price of corn, to a large extent, gov-
erning the price of other feeds, pork. beef, etc.:
COMMERCIAL VALUES OF FEED STUFFS FOR 1914.
Indian corn being the standard @$35.00 per ton.
($1.75 per sack of 100 lbs., 98c per bu. 56 tbs.)
To find the commercial State value, multiply the per-
centages by the price per unit.
A unit being 20 pounds (1%o) of a ton.
Protein, 4.8c. per pound ................. 96c. per unit
Starch and Sugar, 1.55c. per pound ...... 31c. per unit
Fats, 3.5c. per pound ................... 70c. per unit
