Transactions involving the sale Of
original containers sometimes cannot
be made on nct-weight basis with
out adding greatly to the cost of mar
ieting. Perishable commodities must
be handled with all possible dispatch,
and the time and labor required to
weigh each package would more than
offset the good which might result
fro ma knowledge Of the exact weight.
Furthermore, many sales are made
while the products are in transit to
market, and even if the weight at
time of packing were broken a con-
variation from this weight
might occur as a result of shrinkage
due to drying out or decay Then,
too shipping package must be filled
compactly without regard to weight
or the product may be damaged by
the movement within the container.
In general it may be said that tran
sactions involving the sale of packed
fruits or vegetables in the original
coNt"ircr should be made by the stan
,Hrd Hage, but when it is necessary
20 break such packages in order to dis
pose of the commodity in smaller
quantities, sales should be made by
weight or count.

SA LES BY MEASURE
VERSUS SALES BY WEIGHT

In view Of difficulties which are
necessarily encountered in attempting
to secure a uniform method Of filling
and packing standard containers, it
is generally recognized that weight
is the only really definite basis Of
sale, and for that reason the pound
or hundredwcight should be used
where this is practical. An exception
may be noted in regard to products
which arc carefully graded as to size
in which case the sales may be made
satisfactorily by numerical count
