Book excerpt: Excerpt from State and National Laws: Concerning the Weights and Measures of the United States Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith for publication a revised compilation of the Weights and Measures Laws of the United States, the first edition of which, published in 1904, was begun for the use of the Bureau of Standards and not for the purpose of publication. On account, however, of the interest that these laws have for legislators, State and city sealers of weights and measures, and those industries whose operations cover several States, it was deemed advisable to publish the laws, particularly since the information collected could otherwise be found only in scattered volumes rarely accessible to a single individual. The usefulness of the first edition has been fully demonstrated by the large demand for it. Numerous changes made in the State laws relating to weights and measures during the past few years, and the large amount of new legislation on the subject, necessitate a complete revision of the first edition. The scope of the present edition has been broadened to include several phases of the subject of weights and measures not covered by the previous edition. The revision was made by William Parry under the direction of Louis A. Fischer, Chief of the Division of Weights and Measures.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laws Concerning the Weights and Measures of the United States In many Of the States the legal bushel Of certain commodities is specified in pounds. Special bushels have also been legally established in many States for particular products, such as the charcoal bushel, which in Connecticut is cubic inches, in Colorado cubic inches, in Kansas cubic inches, in Pennsylvania cubic inches, and in Minnesota cubic inches (or one-half basket). In Vermont one bushel and three - quarters Of a peck are deemed a bushel Of charcoal, lime, or ashes. In some places 5 pecks constitute a bushel of screened lump coal. A lime bushel in Minnesota is cubic inches. In Pennsylvania, however, it is equal to the Winchester bushel, although the coke bushel is cubic inches. In Idaho the bushel of fruit is cubic inches, and the coke bushel in Missouri is cubic inches. Some States require, furthermore, heaped measure, others struck measure, the heap sometimes being required to be as high as the article will admit, and elsewhere as high as may be without special effort or design, and in still other cases, as in Connecticut, the heaped bushel is definitely fixed as cubic inches. The ton of coal is in some States fixed at pounds and in others at pounds. The barrel varies from 29 gallons liquid measure, or 100 dry quarts, in New York to 42 gallons liquid measure in Texas. This diversity causes confusion in the commerce between the different States. That there is need for authoritative definition by weight is made evident by the fact that Congress has found it necessary to specify the number of pounds of certain commodities in a bushel These values were adopted by Congress solely for use in the customs service, and do not [supersede the State laws, from which they Often differ. In the Philippine Islands, Porto Rico, and Guam the metric system of weights and measures is in general use, and it is the sole legalized system for these islands. The use of the metric system has been legal in the United States since 1866, and although it is in extensive use among technical and scientific men it is not in general use in commercial transactions. Nevertheless the legal status Of the metric system is in some respects superior to that Of our customary system of weights and measures, since Congress has legalized the metric system as a whole and specifically stated the relation of the various units to one another. On the other hand the system of weights and measures in common use in the United States has never been specifically adopted by Congress nor are the relations of the various units to one another fixed except by custom. It is therefore not possible to give a list Of the legal weights and measures of this country, such as may be found in foreign countries where the standards and their multiples and subdivisions are fixed by law. Congress has never even adopted material standards for our customary system of weights and measures, but has left this matter to the discretion of the Treasury Department.
