Fred True, state sealer reported in Finney County was under the direction of Harold Dietz. deputy state sealer.

A scale is condemned if the error is more than two pounds per 1,000, either above or below correct weight, True said. The scale is retes'ted after the owner has it corrected. True said the percentage of approved scales in Finney County is well above the state average. In 1948, when testing of vehicle and livestock scales was started, about 35 per cent were condemned. At present a much larger percentage of the scales are accurate.

Two heavy-duty trucks are used by the weights and measures division in testing over the state. The truck operated by Dietz carries 20,500 pounds of test weights. All of the 2,600 vehicle and livestock scales in the state are tested annually. Events Calendar THTJBSDAY, FEB. 29 Women's Exercise 6:30 to 7 p.m.
