The Commissioner of Agriculture shall appoint an inspector, a weigher and a
registrar for the grain warehouses of each city containing grain warehouses
and having a board of trade, and shall fix their duties, and the amount and kind
of bond to be given by them.
No person shall be appointed as such an inspector, weigher or registrar unless
he is a citizen of Kentucky, is at least twenty-five (25) years of age, has been
for at least one (1) year next preceding his appointment a resident of the city
for which he is chosen, and is not a member of the city board of trade, or
interested in any warehouse.
No such inspector, weigher or registrar shall have stored in, or offer for sale in,
any warehouse under his supervision any commodity owned by him or any
commodity in which he is interested, or be a purchaser at any sale made by the
warehouse of any commodity inspected, weighed or registered by him.
The Circuit Court may, upon complaint and proof of malfeasance or neglect,
remove any inspector, weigher or registrar and declare him ineligible for
reappointment.
The board of trade shall, at least once each year, establish standard grades of
the various kinds of grain to govern the inspector in his inspection.
The Commissioner shall fix the inspection fees to be paid by sellers of grain,
but any warehouseman, seller, buyer or person in interest may, on summary
complaint made to the Circuit Court obtain a reduction of any fee, if the court
finds it exorbitant.
