Great is the difference between the old way
and new of packing. With the new and del
icate scales in use in nowadays, sheet OF
heavy paper makes perceptible difference in
weight and buyers are not asked to pay for
heavy straw wrappings. Much lighter paper
is used Among the later-day convenlences
are the little trays fashioned Of thin wooden
sheets. that are a happy improvement TOR
holding butter, lard. etc., for the customer
who "leaves the pail at home, and the
water proof paper pals in which you carry
home any liquid, from vinegar to molasses.
1t has been comparatively few years since
naner bags. even. came in use. The cost OF
wrappings to our large grocery dealers Is
very great, and is no small item in the
exnense account. Weighing them don't be-
gin to pay for them.
