SWEENEY MAKES
TOLERANCE LIST
Schedule Issued to Show How
Much Allowance May Be
Made by the Dealers

Sealers of weights and measures
ceived from James Sweeney, state
chief of standards. the schedule of
tolerances, or amoun of variations, to
be allowed on goods which are sold
in package form and are liable TO
shrinkage or evaporation. There are
about sixty commodities listed, each
with a tolerance, running all the way
from beer and butter to macaroni,
shr1mps. tomatoes and wine.
h ~toleranceS, as hey are known in
h trade, were made after a commit
tee of state officials and representa-
tfves of the grocery trad had worke
over them and rulings of the fedora
government n advice of United
States officials had been obtained. The
statement is made in the list that the
~tolerances named in the schedule are
based on weight and volume named in
each commodity and thai where any
of the commodities are sold in greater
or smaller quantities the v~ariances per-
mitted should be in accordance with
good commercial practice"
The milk tolerance is the same as in
New York. New Jersey and Massachu-
sets. being 4 drains above and 4 drains
below on a quart, with corresponding
tolerance on half-gallons, pints, half
piDts n gills. The capacity must be
blown in the bottle on all milk or
cream bottles.
The butter tolerance is fixed at lie
ounce on a pound; dried fruits, 1
ounce to a pound, and on preserves
of all kinds one-half an ounce to a
pound. Most of the commodities
named are daily dealt in by house
keepers.

Big Barn and Valuable
Contents Destroyed by Fire
Special to The Telegraph

Carlisle, Pa, Aug. IA large barn

about three miles from Carlisle, was
totally destroyed by fire about 7.30
o'clock this morning. The fire is sup

of wheat and sixty tons of hay were
destroyed along with all the farming
implements, of which there was a
large supply. Mr.. Starner was agent
for the Walter A. Wood Farming I'm
plement Manufacturing Company, of
Hoosac Falls, N. Y, and he had in the
barn about $500 worth of imple-
ments belonging to the company and
which were entirely destroyed. Sew
eral small outbuildings were also de-
stroyed. The dwelling house was in
great danger, but was saved by u
bucket brigade of neighbors. The loss
will probably reach $1,000, with about
one-third insurance.

Trout Season Ends;
Few Large Catches

With few large catches reported in
this section, the trout season for 1914
ended at midnight last night. Local
anglers claim there was too much rain.
1t is also claimed that the big fish were
caught early and that restocking the
streams shut off fishing in many places.
Most of the trout hunters put away
their flies and creels on July Is, but
here and there are anglers who are
giving their last casts, smoking their
pipes and rejecting on the seasons
luck. All told the season was fairly
good. 1t began a trifle slow on April
Is, but as it advanced matters mended
and many anglers made good scores.
Bass and pike are now engrossing
the attention of most of the disciples
of the far-famed Izaak. Numerous
good catches have been reported from
streams famous for these fish.

So the Late Arrival
Won't Be Mistaken For
a Robber in Own House

Persons who have their homes or
places of business equipped with bur-
glar alarms sometimes find it neces-
sary to enter after the apparatus has
been set for the night and are I'M
able to dc so without sounding the
alarm. A system which avoids this
undesirable feature and still gives Just
as reliable protection is described in
the Electrical World. The burglar
alarm equipment may be installed in
any recommended manner, but an
auxiliary circuit cutting out the alarm
bell has to be connected to an anxil-
larry Yale lock. When a person de-
sires to enter the door without sound
ing the alarm the Yale-lock key is in
serted and turned. The regular lock
may then be opened without causing
the alarm to be sounded. The advan-
tage of this system is that the alarm
protection is automatically restored
as soon as the Yale-lock key is with
drawn from the lock.

A generation OF mothers has found no soap
so well suited for cleansing and purifying the
skin and hair of infants and children as
Cuticura Soap. Its absolute purity and re-
freshing fragrance alone are enough to
recommend it above ordinary skin soaps,
but there are added to these qualities delicate
yet effective emollient properties, derived
from Cuticura Ointment. which render it
most valuable in overcoming a tendency to
distressing eruptions and promoting a nor
NAL condition of skin and hair health.

Georgia centers was had to-day be-
fore the Rivers and Harbors Com
mittee Of the House, on the Altama
ha, Oconee and Ocmulgee Rivers
composing what is generally known
as the Altamaha system.

tives from Dublin, Hawkinsvile and
Brunswicl,.
Congressman g. l.. Bartlett. of the
hearing. representatives Hardwicll,
Crisp. Walker, Hughes and Edwards
are all interested in the proposed i'm
provement.
The Altamaha system, as was
pointed out by Secretary Dunwoody,
of the Macon Chamber OF Commerce,
is made up as follows:
Altamaha, 144 miles; Oconee, 145
miles from the Altamaha to Milledge
vile. and Ocmulgee. 205 miles from
the Altamaha to Macon, making in all
494 miles Of navigable water all with
in the State of Georgia, affecting
more than 100000 persons and
commerce of more than 100000 900
In his argument Mr. Bartlett shows
how the freight rate to Macon on
all its freight had been reduced at
least rs per cent by the improvement
of the river to a three foot draft.
Mr. Hughes and other speakers
showed that similar reductions had
been made at Dublin, Hawkinsville
and other points affected by this sys
tenn of rivers.
1t was brought out by Mr. Long
that a new steamboat line would be
organized to operate a line OF barges
on this system and that water trans
portation would be put on to Macon.
II was also brought out that Macon.
Dublin, Hawkinsville and Brunswick
now own large wharf frontage to
accommodate the shipments by river.
II was shown that the section affected
by the proposed development has an
agricultural production of $4,000 000
each year.

When the new y. NJ. C. A. is opened
next June, A. A. Jameson. of New
York, the new secretary having
charge of the boys department will
at cnce begin teaching the young
idea" in manner calculated to build
and strengthen character without let
ting the boy know what is happening.
LAS soon as you let young boy
know that he is being singled out for
a course in eugenics or sex law or
anything of that kind, be becomes
shy or bull headed, according TO his
disposition and temperament" said
Mr.. Jameson. My plan is TO en-
courage the inherent goodness in the
boy nature; stimulate his love of fair
play by clean and wholesome attn
letic contests, and intersperse lee
tures-always TO the boys in groups
on hygiene and eugenics. The
groups will be divided according TO
age. and there will be nothing to
suggest to any boy that he is being
preached to- individually
The idea. Mr. Jameson says, is to
conserve the energies of the boy,
rather than to reclaim them after
useless waste, and to provide an en-
yironment that will keep the boy
from going wrong, rather than one
that viii attempt TO straighten him
out after an unfortunate course Of
living
