Taking cotton for instance we find that, although the present crop in the States can hardly exceed by a few hundred thousand

They were placed there without the untherity of the Opium Farmer and for the purpose of deceiving the public and inducing them to believe that the opium which the defendant was selling was opium that had come through the Opium Farmer. If he applied that false description to the opion he was guilty of an offence against the Merchandise Marks Act.
