If the Board shall decide that the article is not of a proper quality, it must be immediately replaced by the contractor; failing which, it will be procured by the department requiring it, and the expense charged to the contractor.
In cases where the article is of a perishable nature, or in which, from some other cause, injury would be sustained by waiting for a board of survey, the head of the department or officer in charge for whom the supplies are to be received, shall have power to reject any article of quality inferior to the approved sample, and to purchase others at the expense of the contractor.
