Grinding Season
Is at Hand.

The advent of October brings
renewed activity in the sugar
factories and on the plantations
in general. After a suspension of
some ten months the ponderous
machinery will be set in motion
and millions of pounds of the
sweet stuff" will be turned out
for an eager market.
The cane fields will disappear,
cut by cut and the good planter
will take keen pleasure in figuring
his profits, which will be much
above the everage. After many
lean years a fat one is at hand
and we are glad to join our friends
who anticipate this fortunate turn
of affairs.
The grinding season will place
considerable money in circulation
and all should profit from the
planter and merchant down te
the editor.

TAGGING SCALES AND MEASURES
Representative of State Commissioner
Visiting Various County Towns.

The third visit to Brattleboro of dep
uty inspector from the office of Hugh
Henry. state commissioner of weights and
measures, was made Friday, Saturday and
Monday. c. F. Henry of Chester was IN
town and his investigations indicated that
practically all local scales come up to the
standard though there are few bearing
tell-tale red tag which indicates, they are
not correct. The owners OF such scales
will be given an opportunity 70 procure
new weighing equipment but the time unit
for complying with the orders rests with
| the inspector.
Mr. Henry said that in number Of cases
he found scales that required slight
amount of repairing to make them abso-
iufely accurate. While he makes no rec
| concentration relative to repairs or pur-
chase of new scales it was evident from
his conversation that he was not in SYM
nathv with the horde of statesmen who
doc the footsteps of the inspectors and
inyeiele merchants and others into buy
inc new scales whenever an inspector tags
the old ones. The majority OF scales eS-
amined by the inspector are either stand
ard or require but slight adjustment to
make them so. ~, ;ult,

and measures law are those using dry
