It is the old-fashioned dry measure—peckes, Purchases On the first day of July, all New Jersey produce dealers will turn over to the jankman hold-overs from the day when they used to ship a small sack of candy for the children in with each sizeable purchase. Perhaps those soon-to-be-old-time owners might other use, but anyhow they are going, and they will make their exit by July 1. Joy reign among New Jersey dealers in scales. After July 1 all produce deicing gear by weight, and some have been used to antipollution a land-office business. "However, the dishonest dean, will get away with it just as well by weight as he does by measure. You know the old gag of butchers who like to eat their chop. Well, it can be done with let-tee or cabbage just as well." New Jersey dealers declare they are glad to see the old measures go by the boards. Many of them state the new rules means more money for them. The average grocer's attention is focused on helping you want to best your customers, dry weight is usually a loss to us. Take, for instance, a peck of potatoes. You hate to give housewife just the even measure full, but each time you toss on a few more to heap it up you lose money. In the course of a day it counts up.
