Ssaler loft Takes Action
Against Local Grocsr.

Scaier OF Weights and Measures
Henry loft is entering into his busy
season just now. He has just complet-
ed his examination of the small scales
in this city and will now get on the
track Of liquid measures, peach has
kets, etc In his second examination of
scales in the city, Sealer loft found
263 scales correct and twelve needing
adjustment and~ repairs.
In his first examination out of 401
scales eighty-four needed adjustment
and FIVE were condemned. This exami-
nationIncluded the large scales as well
as the small. Sealer Toft has deferred
his second examination of the large
scales for the time being. The sealer
says he has had considerable trouble
with S. Mandel, grocer Of New
street, and that he was forced Yesterday
to confscate his balance weights, eight
in number, which were all short in
weight.
Liquid measure will next receive the
attention of the sealeT, there being a
few places which were not visited dur
ing his canvass of few months ago.
Peach baskets must be stamped with
the amount of their contents this year,
Sealer Toft states. In the past he has
found twelve and fourteen quart bas-
kets passing for sixteen quart baskets
and six quart baskets passing for eight
quart baskets.

FOR ISOLATION
HOSPITAL HERE
Health Officer Lund Says
Ono Is Needed.

DR.. J. L. Lund, health officer of this
city, made plea before the Board of
Health last night for the making of
provisions for an adequate isolation
hospital. He stated that in cases of
infectious or contagious diseases there
was no means of taking care of the
cases at the city hospital. For instance
he cited q case Of measles now at the
city hospital which practically blocked
the whole institution because of the
precautions which must necessarily sur
round it to prevent it spreading to
other patients. He asked if the patient
could be installed in the present iso-
lation hospital.
AS it was a special meeting of the
Board last night to take up the anti
mosquito campaign, no action was ia
ken on the proposition at that time.
DR.. Lund was asked If the hospital
would detail nurse to take care OF
measles patients if the board allowed
the hospital to place the person in the
isolation structure.
The physician thought that it was
hardly likely that it would do 30. Dr.
Lund said that the city was badly IN
need of permanent isolation hospit-
al to handle contagious cases and was
of the opinion that the authorities
should take the matter up. The propo-
sition was deferred until some future
meeting.

bills. Their business would be to keep
