II. NJ Davis, the deputy commission
er Of weights and measures, was called
to a store in Montpelier Monday after
noon relative to the amount of sugar
that was being sold and he found that
the package was over an ounce short in
weight, including the bag in the weigh
ing. As result of an advertisement
he found that some of the people sell
ing wood do not understand that a
fraction of cord must be sold and not
so many runs. For instance, the ad-
yertisement stated - and l4-inch
wood. The man told Mr.. Davis he
gave three runs for a cord This is
only about seveneighths of cord. Mr..
Davis urges persons selling wood to
check up and find out what the law
provides. The quotation made the wood
cost over Sl5 cord.
