JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Sale of fertilizer not void for noncompliance with paragraph (2).

- Where a vendor of fertilizer in this state sells certain sacks of fertilizer which are not tagged or branded, the failure to comply with paragraph (2) of this section does not render the sale void and does not render a mortgage note given by the purchaser to the vendor for the purchase price of the fertilizer void and unenforceable.
