1682 LAWS OF MARYLAND [Ch. 6
association who owns land worked by the
grower. Both the grower or landowner,
however, can own tobacco and sell it,
consequently, this definition is revised to
refer to the tobacco owner.
Subsection (c) presently appears as Art. 48,
§62(c) of the Code.
The only other changes made are in style.
SEC. 7-406. MARKING AND LABELING OF TOBACCO DELIVERED
FOR SALE.
(A) MARKING AND LABELING REQUIRED.
THE TRUE NAME AND ADDRESS OF THE OWNER OR THE
SELLER OF EVERY BASKET, SAMPLE, OR OTHER CONTAINER OF
TOBACCO DELIVERED FOR SALE AT ANY LEAF TOBACCO MARKET
IN THE STATE SHALL BE MARKED, STENCILED, OR ATTACHED
TO IT. ANY TOBACCO GROWN OUTSIDE THE STATE SHALL HAVE
ATTACHED TO THE CONTAINER OR SAMPLE THE NAME OF THE
STATE IN WHICH IT WAS GROWN, AND EVERY ATTACHED SALES
[[TICKER]] TICKET, SAMPLE, OR BASKET TICKET SHALL HAVE
STAMPED ON IT THE WORDS "GROWN OUTSIDE OF MARYLAND".
(B) PROPRIETOR TO RETAIN UNMARKED TOBACCO.
THE OWNER OR MANAGER OF ANY LEAF TOBACCO MARKET
SHALL RETAIN EVERY BASKET OR OTHER CONTAINER OF
TOBACCO NOT MARKET, STENCILED OR LABELED UNTIL THE
NAME OF THE OWNER OR SELLER AND THE OTHER REQUIRED
INFORMATION HAS BEEN ASCERTAINED AND PLACED ON IT.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 48, §67 of the Code. The present
reference to "any loose leaf or hogshead"
tobacco market is proposed for deletion and
"leaf" tobacco market is substituted in light
of the definition set forth in §7-101(e).
In subsection (b) , the present reference to
"proprietor" is proposed for deletion and a
reference to "owner" is added. "Proprietor"
and "owner" are synonymous and the latter is
used to maintain consistency with the
terminology used throughout this Article.
The last sentence is proposed for deletion
because it appears as new language in §7—407.
The only other changes made are in style.
