ATTACKS ON TRADING
STAMPS AND VOUCHERS
Retail Merchants Association
Plans to Take Steps to Bar
Them in the Near Future.

Discount vouchers and other forms OF
premiums issued in Washington by vari-
Gus firms were vigorously attacked during
a meeting of the Retail Merchants Asso-
citation at the Chamber of Commerce last
night. Although no definite action was
taken in regard to them, it is planned
to take steps to bar them in the near
future.
The regulations of the association pro-
vide that no member shall give adver-
tisements to publications other than
newspapers, magazines. directories, the
alter programs and a few other publ
cations without the permission Of spe-
cial committee. At the last meeting OF
the association this provision was made
optional with the members for ninety
days. At the expiration of that period
the rule was to be finally acted upon.
and If adopted penalty was to be at
tached for violations. An attempt was
made last night to have this rule go into
effect Immediately. but the matter was
laid over until the next meeting OF
the association after a long discussion.
Large Houses All Interested.
President Joseph Strasburger made a
report to the association upon its work.
He said, in part:
'.All of the large houses of the city
have now become members, and more
than this, they have expressed their deep
interest in the work of the organiza-
ton.
II am pleased to report that the trading
stamp people have been eliminated in the
District Of Columbia, and the Commits
sioners have assured us of prompt prose-
cution should there be any attempt to
revive the trading stamp business here.
We believe now that other trading evils
can be considered by the committee for
this purpose and eradicated after care
full consideration.

see signs Of improvement. and with the
third and fourth applications the sores
commenced TO dry up. His skin peeled

Weight and Measure VS.. Package

II our information is correct bill
has been introduced in the Vermont
legislature which stipulates that all
commodities shall be sold by weight,
measure or numerical count. This
provision hits the sale by package
business and naturally the big manu-
facturers of food products are being
heard from. Some years ago, we are
informed, some OF these manufactur-
ers used to mark on the package the
number OF pounds or the measure con
tanned therein. Since the establish
ment OF national pure food law
packages have been put on the mar
ket with no claim made as TO the
quantity. When the customer buys a
package of oat meal or other break
fast food he gets package, that is
all.
Many dealers still persist, however
in calling this a one-pound package
and that a two-pound package and
customers really think they are get
ting one or two pounds while in fact
they are receiving much less. PEG
pie are beginning TO understand that
they pay two or three times as much
per pound for products in packages
as In bulk If all the people under.
stand thus they then can purchase as
they choose and they get what they
think they are buying and no decep-
tion will be practiced.
The troublefhowever, is that people
generally will continue to think they
are getting actual weight or measure
wien they buy packages and dealers
will take no pains to enlighten them,
in fact. many dealers will continue to
give the idea that these packages act
TALLY contain products put up by
weight or measure is plainly marked
and the price made according TO the
amount actually contained In the
package. then no one Is deceived The
manufacturer gets his price for a
definite amount Of product and the
purchaser gets exactly what he pays
for. This seems like fair business
proposition ,
The manufacturer. however. thinks
otherwise. He wants to continue 10
sell goods in packages which say
nothing as to how much there Is
therein. Why? Simply because he
will make more. If people continue
to purchase his packages containine
three-quarters of pound and THINK
they are getting a pound, he VIII pen
eft by their ignorance. II is claim
ed that only two states In the nation
North Dakota and Nebraska. REQUIRE
that commodities be sold by Welgh'
or measure. The manufactures
claims that having different laws "
different states is hardship and tha'
the prices must be raised In states re
curing actual weight and measure
The price per package could be raised
bit and still the price per pound
lower than II now Is.
II the manufacturer wants unifor
nifty why not require that his prod
ucts shall be sold in all the states
by actual weight or measure. II ina
is the kind OF uniformity desired Yer
mont will be in the line of progress
by enacting the bill before the legisla

The Trout Laws

Every sportsman interested in i'm
proving the trout streams of the state
ought 10 do his part toward securing
he passage of the bill introduced by
Speaker Howe providing for the per.
nanent closing of small streams
whether or not they have been stock
ed. No other method will so help
the trout fishing in Vermont. Year
round protection Of the head-waters
and tributaries of our principal
streams will give the small fish OPP
portunity to grow unmolested until
they are of legal length and in a
short time result in the streams
stocking themselves. Mr.. Howes bill
also provides for the reduction of the
legal length Of trout that may be
caught from G to 51a inches and for
The distribution by the state Of finger
lings Instead Of fry. The latter pro-
vision is a particularly good one, the
distribution Of trout fry being mere
" a waste Of good money.-Brattle-
