During the past few months Mr..
Evan, who operates a farm near Mount

his shoulder blades, then he fell from
the tongue of his wagon and was
trampled on by two horses. But he

has seldom been recorded.
That Mr.. Evan has reached the limit
in matters pertaining to unpleasant ex-
periences was indicated Yesterday
when he heard the sound OF "Quack,
quack, quack." close to the rear portion
of nj sanatomy. Turning around quick
ly while in the barnyard he found him
self in the grasp of an excited gander,
which had grabbed the tail Of his coat.
The Infatuated bird attacked its owner
without any apparent cause and began
to whack him vigorously with the ugly
butt or spurs on the inside of it's wings,
which had a spread of about six feet.
The gander used it's cap with
yigor, and when he managed to escape
Mr.. Evan was obliged to take to his
bed as a result of the injuries which
he received.

INSPECTOR SAYS PACKERS
CAUSE SHORT WEIGHTS.
Urges Federal Regulation to
Correct Evil.

Short weight as a factor in the high
cost of living has been pointed out by
John II. Sullivan city sealer of weights
and measures, in an interview with a
STAR reporter. Mr.. Sullivan advocates
federal regulation for packers and big
dealers, but is looking out for local
violations of the weight ordinances him
self. Short weight. he declares, is prac-
tised more widely than most people
think.
IF / were to go into the average
grocery and confiscate every package
that is under weight l would take more
than half the mans stock" he said.
1T is a w~ell-known fact that most of
the packages and cans of stuff that are
sent out by the big manufacturers do
not contain the full weight that they
are supposed to contain.
1--WE do not want to visit the sins of
the canning and packing establishments
on the little dealers. 1t is a matter for
Federal regulation, and this department
will aid in every way efforts to make
the packers Of canned goods and other
commodities label the weight of their
goods and live up TO it,"
The five inspectors Of the department
are out all the time visiting various
stores and testing the scales. The ordi-
nance compels every dealer to have his
scales sealed and the men seal them,
and If there is reason to doubt their
accuracy they are marked condemned.
Five days are given the dealers to have
them replaced. If this is not done legal
action Is resorted to.
I'm the case of peddlers and street
vendors the men found giving short
measures or weights are taken to a
police station. In the case of a dealer
the matter is referred to the city legal
department and suit is commenced. So
far this year there have been four con
victions. Each offender was fined $25.
In the years previous there were
twenty-five convictions.
only a few days ago we eonfscated
a lot Of bags of coal that were offered
for sale by a local dealer. They were
sold for 10 cents each and were marked
nineteen pounds. In reality the bags
only held a little more than seventeen
pounds. A ton of coal bought at that
rate costs $13. The wholesale dealers
sell these bags to the retailers at I
cents each"
1T is often not the fault of the
dealer" said Sullivan. FOR scales, when
they get old, have a way of picking
up and the only way to get around it
Is to throw them away. OF course, we
have the same old troubles with men
who hang keys and pieces of lead or
their scales, but that is an old story,
and indicates a condition that does not
Exist here to any great extent"
