worry for the makers Of linseed oil. or
rather for the jobbers and dealers, has
been precipitated all innocently enough
by the zeal Of the pure food depart

by this department, there was given

dealer could. by Weighing his barrels
before and after emptying the same.
ascertain by weight just how many
gallons they had contained. Among
the substances thus listed was !inseeds

seven and a half pounds. But no soon

just about five ounces short OF this
amount. They say that this Is known
Of all dealers and to change now would
work great hardship. But the pure
food department knows naught Of this
custom, and merely gave the exact
weight. Perhaps q great many retail
dealers never knew that the gallons
they bought were not as large as the
gallons they sold. Anyway the jobbera
or manufacturers would have preferred
not to have the exact weight advertised
