LIGHT WEIGHT HAY.-There has been much
complaint recently of the practise of selling
baled hay in this city that has not passed over
the scales of the corporation weighers, and
which falls far short of the weight for which
it is sold. The practise is swindle upon the
buyers, as well as violation of our municipal
laws. The excuse of such dealers as have
been questioned about it is that the corporation
purchase in Maryland and Pennsylvania by
weight, marked on each bale, they have Alright
TO sell in Washington by those weights. This
violation of law will be taken notice of by the
proper authorities, and the question will be
settled by the enforcement of the penalty.
