438. Every person, association, copartnership, corporation, or agent
or servant thereof engaged in the business of receiving or buying milk or
cream on the basis of or in any way with reference to the amount of
butterfat contained therein, or tests made for official inspection or public
records as determined by the "Babcock Test" shall have the test or tests
made only by a licensed tester who shall be responsible for the same and
who shall, immediately after such tests are completed, prepare a list
containing the names or numbers of the producers whose milk or cream
was so tested and place opposite each such producer's name or number
the percentage of butterfat found to have been contained in the sample
of milk or cream reresenting the milk or cream delivered by each such
producer. Such lists so prepared shall be made with indelible pencil or
ink and shall be filed in the plant or place where such milk or cream is
bought or received, and each such list shall be duly signed by the person
making such tests and preparing such lists, and such person shall place
beneath his signature the number of the state license under which he is
testing. All such lists shall be kept as a record for at least one year
and shall be open to examination at all times by the University of Mary-
land College of Agriculture or its agents. At any time, upon request of
any producer, the purchaser or receiver of such milk or cream shall permit
such producer to examine such part of said record as contains information
concerning the samples of milk or cream representing the milk or cream
delivered by such producer. For the purpose of this sub-title a licensed
tester is any person who, having furnished satisfactory evidence of good
character and having passed a satisfactory examination in milk and
cream testing conducted by the University of Maryland College of Agri-
culture shall have received a license from the said University of Mary-
land College of Agriculture. Each applicant for examination for such
license shall pay a fee of one dollar and a half ($1. 50) to the University
of Maryland College of Agriculture or its agents. The University of
Maryland College of Agriculture upon receipt of the payment of a fee of
three dollars ($3. 00), shall issue a license to said applicant good for one
calendar year. This license shall be renewed annually without further
examination at the discretion of the University of Maryland College of
Agriculture upon the payment of a fee of three dollars. All moneys so
collected shall be used to meet the expenses of the University of Maryland
College of Agriculture for the enforcement of this sub-title. Each certified
tester shall post his or her license in plain view in the testing room in
which he is employed. The University of Maryland College of Agri-
culture shall revoke said license for failure to post it as above required
or for any other just cause.
