Packages of Food Must Tell the
Truth as to Contents, Declares
The United States Government

Washington, May 29-The regula-
tons for the carrying out of the So
called "net-weight law which COM
pels manufacturers to make a clear
statement of the weight, volume, or
contents of their packages of food.
were signed May IL by the Seere-
taries of the Treasury, Agriculture.
and Commerce. These regulations
apply to foods shipped in interstate
commerce or sold in the District of
Colummbia or the Territories. The
regulations as signed become effective
at once, although the law passed
March 3, 1918, as an amendment to
the food and drugs act, defers the ex-
acting of penalties for violations until
September 8, 1914.
The regulations, in general, require
that the manufacturer of foods shall
plainly mark all packages bottles. or
other containers holding more than 2
ounces avoirdupois, or more than l
fluid ounce, to show the net weight or
volume of the contents. The meas
ure must be stated in avoirdupois
pounds and ounces. United States gal
Ions, quarts, pints, or fluid ounces,
United States standard bushels, half
bushels, pecks, quarts, pints. or half
pints The contents by like method
may be expressed in terms of metric
weight or measure. The volume or
liquids must be computed at IS de-
grees F.
The quantity stated on the con-
tainer must represent the actual
quantity of food exclusive of wrap
pings and container.
In general. solids must be stated in
terms of weight and liquids in terms
of volume, except that where there is
definite trade custom otherwise any
marking of the package in terms that
are generally understood to express
definite quantities will be permitted.
The quantity of viscous or semisolld
food OF of mixtures of solids and
liquids may be stated either by weight
or measure, but the statement must
clearly indicate whether the quantity
is expressed in terms of weight or
measure.
In the case of certain articles the
contents may be stated by numerical
count. provided such numerical count
gives accurate information as to the
quantity of food in the package. Tn
der this requirement II would not be
enough to state that a package OF
candy contained "a cream peppermints,
as candies vary in size, ana TINS
would not be a statement of the actuai
quantity of candy in the package.
The regulations also permit the
statement of minimum volume or
weight, as Minimum weight, IL
ounces; Minimum volume. gallon ;
Not less than ounces. In sucn
cases the amount stated must approx
mate the actual quantity. No Varla-
tons below the stated minimum
quantity will be permitted.

The statement of weight or measure
must be marked in terms of the larg-
est unit contained in the package, for
example, IL the package contains
pound and a fraction, the contents
must be expressed in terms of pounds
and fractions thereof, or pounds and
ounces, and not merely in ounces.
Toleranees.
In the packing and bottling of many
foods 1t would be impossible, or else
add unnecessarily to cost, for the
manufacturer to place an absolutely
accurate statement of the amount of
the food in every package, and for
this reason the regulations permit
tolerances or variations In packages
where the discrepancies are due ex-
elusively to unavoidable errors In
weighing, measuring. or counting
which occur in packing conducted In
compliance with good commercial
practice. This tolerance is allowed
in order to permit the use of weighing
and measuring machines which, like
human operators, can not weigh OF
measure with absolute accuracy every
package. The regulations, however
provide that run of such packages
must show as many cases OF over
weight and as much excess as 1t does
cases of underweight or undervol-
ume.
Similarly in the case of bottles,
which can not be blown with absolute
accuracy, tolerances are allowed, out
with the same proviso that the run OF
bottles must show as much excess IN
volume as deficiency in volume.
Oueer-shaped bottles must not show
greater discrepancies than standard
round or square bottles of the same
canacity This means that a manu-
facturer who uses some special bottle
of odd shape can not claim greater
variation because of the difficulty of
blowing or manufacturing such bot
tie or container.
Because goods shipped from one part
of the country to another lose IN
weight by natural evaporation due TO
differences of atmospheric conditions
or temperature, tolerances will be al
lowed for such changes. The proper
tolerances to be allowed will be de-
termined on the facts in each case,
and IT is probable that the department
will establish tolerances for evapora-
ton for various foods
Packages containing 2 ounces
avoirdupois or fluid ounce of food or
| less are considered small and are ex-
empted from marking in terms OF
weight. The reason for this is that
providing accurate small bottles and
accurately measuring their contents
in the case of a number of articles
sold in small packages for or 10
cents would be prohibitive In cost to
the manufacturers and would force
them to raise the price for the pack
age or to put less food in 1t for the
same price.
