SELLING BY WEIGHT.-Mr. L. l.. Qulnn,
vegetable grower for over twenty years, writes
wisely about the advantage Of selling fruits ana
vegetables by weight. We quote the follo"-
ing:
There arc bat few persons who have been IN
the habit of buying family provisions ID smsil
quantities who have not at times been surpris-
cd in the difference in quantity OF different nail
bushels of apples. potatoc, carrot or turnlps'
With vegetables, like carrots, boet', aud large
sized sweet notatoes, it i, almost impossible TO
measure with accuracy. ltmay with harness
br sunposed that the huckser is likely, under
the circumstances, to favor himself instead OF
the buyer. The same is noticeable with CAP,
hace. In lot OF 100 heads OF cabbage, say at
ten cents per head, there arc hardly two ct toe
iot hat are of the same weight. They will
vary from four ounces to two POUNDS, as the
case may be.
Still. there is no way of being any more &C
curatc under the present system OF gucss-Work'
Shrew.ness on the part OF buyer may some
times get the best of the bargain, but there is
no certainty whatever of getting an equlValens
for the money. 1t would,bs better tor ootn

ten pounds, and the price is, say one ~oene, 3, q
pound, the point is decided at once, ana tne
buyer is then satisfied that he gets falr com,
pensation Tor his money. 1t would: be much
less trouble to the huckstcr and ten times
more satisfactory to the buyer, TO have WelgnT
ed 10, 20, or 80 pounds OF parships, carrots OF
onious, than to have then measured. In one
