Must Mark Butter Packages

The following article from the
Sheridan Post will be of interest
to the ranchmen and dairymen in
this part of Wyoming. Inquiry
from the merchants here discloses
the fact that some of the butter
brot in here and sold for pound
packages, is under weight.
"In the state of Wyoming all
butter, both ranch and creamery,
must when sold, have printed on
the wrapper the net weight of the
package. This law went into eff
feet July LIST. If butter is sold
upon which the net weight is not
given the seller is liable to a fine
of not less than 1875 MOI more than
500, for the second offence the
penalty is doubled, and the seller
may also be sent to Jail for &C
days. The same penalty applies
where the label shows a greater
amount than the package contains
The law is as follows:
For the purpose of this act an
article shall be deemed adulterated
lin the case of food''''If in
package form the net quantity OF
the contents be not plainly ano
conspiciously marked on the out.
side Of the package in terms ot
weight or numerical court.
"One prominent grocer when in.
terviewed in regard to this matter
said that nearly all the ranch but
ter that is put on the market il
under weight. Most of the ranch
ers who make butter to sell, put i
up in packages which are sold fo'
a pound. when in fact they weigh
but Ia ounces, and frequently thu
package actually weighs but l:
ounces.
"This is not, as a rule, the faul
of the rHnchers. Molds are useC
in preparing the butter for mar
kets, and these molds are nearl,
always too small, The housewife
makes the butter and molds it in
to packages, takes it to town anc
sells it without a thot as to it
weight, She sold it by the pack
age rather than by the pound"
