1t IL proposed to slightly c1lange tho rule 10

This movement is understood to have beer
brought about By proposal to institute rul,
: providing that barrel OF pork shall weigh
: certain number OF pounds at one time, and
certain number at another. It ia well know1
to those in the trade that pork gains As mucl
i: az five pounds per month in cold weather, ant
loses little in warm weather, and pork is re-
fused or accepted after the close OF the pack
ing season according a. it comes up to, or {alls
short Of, the theoretical standard OF how muc1

Pork Packers, Aesociatlon has terribly awk
