10 ABOLISH DRY MEASURE
tMuscatine Journal.]
According to an interview appear
ing in keokuk Newspaper. Deputy
Food Commissioner NJ. e. Flynn
well-known in MuScatine thru his
frequent official visits here, believes
that the next session Of the Iowa state
legislature will be productive Of the
passage of a law doing away with the
sale Of commodities by dry measure
and authorizing only sale by weight.
OF the desirability of such q law
Mr.. Flynn says:
The pasas. of such a Ia" IS
hardship to none. merchants in gen.
eral favor such law, and prosecu-
tons now resulting from shor'
weight are due in large measure
not to intentional cheating. but to
the falsfty of some measures. Patrons
too. would welcome such law, for
they are assured that they get the
equivalent of the money they expend.
The movement toward the adoption
Of a law legalizing only sale by weight
is general turnout the country. Many
states have such a faw ana its success
is already known. In many Iowa cit
les merchants have already adopted
the sale of commodities by weight only
This is done in response to their own
free will, there being nothing IN the
Iowa case at present that requires sales
by weight.
