WARNING BY The DAIRY AN
FOOD COMMISSION. #

Many, of the commercial and pri
vate wagon scales used for weighing
coal, grain and stock are more mac
curate than is commonly supposed.
This may be seen from the reports
OF the State Weight and Measure
Insp ectors. tE5 Z 3s&i
During The summer and fall the
inspectors have been busilys engag.
ed in checking up these scales. The
results Of this work show that most
Of the elevator scales are in good cor
dition, due, no doubt, to the fact
that & system of inspection for
these scales has Il been in opera.
ton for ten years. It is only within
the past year that the testing Of 9th
er wagon scales was comm enced In
IA systematic manner. 81
Some Of the Inaccuracies of these
scales are as follows: At Waterloo
one scale was off 100 lbs. on a 500
lb. load. At Clarinda scale was
off 600 lbs. on a $500 lb. load. At
Sioux Center the city scales were
off Sc lbs. on 500 lbs. At Rock
Rapids the city scales were short
As lbs on load.
Numerous other Inaccuracies could
be given, but these will serve to
show that scales will not remain &C
curate unless tested and from time
to time readjusted. In general
about 40 per cent of the scales test
ed by the Department are found to
be inaccurate due to poor care or
neglect. s.,$ ~ 3. ). K
Now that the fan coal buying
season is on, Chief Weight and
Measure Inspector E. w. Van Duyn
is devoting his attention to check
ing up deliveries of short weight
coal. Last week a dealer was fined
$4,000 and costs for selling coal short
525 lbs. on a load of 5000 lbs. and
$500 and costs for selling ITO lbs.
short on two ton load.
Dairy and Food Commissions
Barney wishes to warn all dealers
against buying and selling apples
and potatoes by measure as the law
makes it compulsory that all dry
commodities be bought and sold only
by weight. ;.g +. 3,

Praise.

Praise may pun up a shallow ma
ture, but It always brings something
of humanity to a deep one. Love
and commendation are sweet, but
just because they are worth SO much
the true and earnest spirit Is touched
with a sense of its own unWorthiness
as lit receives them, longing to be
better fitted for the trust reposed in
it. It is not the flash of scorn but
the light of love that reveals us =
ourselves and stirs us to our best
effort. z
