1752 LAWS OF MARYLAND [Ch. 6
[[ (2) SEED IN STORAGE IN, OR CONSIGNED TO, A
SEED CLEANING OR PROCESSING ESTABLISHMENT FOR CLEANING
OR PROCESSING BUT ANY LABELING OR OTHER REPRESENTATION
WHICH IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE UNCLEAN SEED IS
SUBJECT TO THIS SUBTITLE;]]
[[(3)]] (2) SEED SOLD BY ONE FARMER TO
ANOTHER, IF THE SEED HAS NOT BEEN ADVERTISED FOR SALE
OR HAS NOT BEEN DELIVERED THROUGH A CARRIER; AND
[[(4)]] (3) ANY CARRIER IN RESPECT TO ANY
SEED TRANSPORTED OR DELIVERED FOR TRANSPORTATION IN
THE ORDINARY COURSE OF ITS BUSINESS AS A CARRIER, IF
THE CARRIER IS NOT ENGAGED IN PRODUCING, PROCESSING,
OR MARKETING ANY AGRICULTURAL, VEGETABLE, HERB,
FLOWER, TREE, OR SHRUB SEED SUBJECT TO PROVISIONS OF
THIS SUBTITLE.
(B) SALES OF INCORRECTLY LABELED SEEDS
UNIDENTIFIABLE BY EXAMINATION.
NO PERSON IS SUBJECT TO THE PENALTIES OF THIS
SUBTITLE FOR HAVING SOLD, OFFERED OR EXPOSED FOR SALE,
OR TRANSPORTED IN THE STATE ANY AGRICULTURAL,
VEGETABLE, HERB, FLOWED, TREE, OR SHRUB SEED, WHICH IS
INCORRECTLY LABELED OR PRESENTED AS TO KIND, VARIETY,
OR ORIGIN AND WHICH CANNOT BE IDENTIFIED BY
EXAMINATION, UNLESS HE HAS FAILED TO OBTAIN AN INVOICE
OR GROWER'S DECLARATION GIVING KIND, OR KIND AND
VARIETY, AND ORIGIN, IF REQUIRED, AND TO TAKE ANY
OTHER PRECAUTION NECESSARY TO INSURE THE IDENTITY TO
BE THAT STATED.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 48, §156 of the Code. New language is
added in subsection (a) (1) to indicate that
seeds not intended for planting purposes must
be appropriately labeled. The references to
specific present sections are proposed for
deletion and a reference to the subtitle is
substituted because those sections are the
only substantive ones. The present provision
indicating that the provisions of this
subtitle are not applicable to "seed in
storage in or consigned to a seed cleaning or
processing establishment" is proposed for
repeal by amendment because it is considered
unnecessary. The only other changes made are
in style.
SEC. 9-212. SEIZURE FOR NONCOMPLIANCE; EXCEPTION.
