393 - Lime; standard barrels.

 
    § 393. Lime; standard barrels. There is hereby established a large and
  a  small  barrel of lime, the large barrel to consist of two hundred and
  eighty pounds and the small barrel to consist of one hundred and  eighty
  pounds, net weight. It shall be unlawful for any person to sell or offer
  for  sale  lime,  unless  there shall be stencilled or otherwise clearly
  marked on one or both heads of the small barrel the  figures  "180  lbs.
  net"  and  of the large barrel the figures "280 lbs. net," and on either
  barrel in addition the name of the manufacturer of the  lime  and  where
  manufactured.  When lime is sold in containers of less capacity than the
  standard small barrel, it shall be sold  in  fractional  parts  of  said
  standard  small  barrel,  and  the  net weight of lime contained in such
  container shall by stencil  or  otherwise  be  clearly  marked  thereon,
  together  with the name of the manufacturer thereof, and the name of the
  brand, if any, under which it is sold. It shall  be  unlawful  to  pack,
  sell,  or  offer  for sale any barrels or other containers of lime which
  are not marked as provided in this act,  or  to  sell,  charge  for,  or
  purport  to  deliver  as a large or small barrel or a fractional part of
  said small barrel of lime, any less weight of lime than  is  established
  by  the  provisions  of  this  section.  Any person violating any of the
  provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
