It is difficult or impossible to establish a uniform package good for

every year. Walnuts are not like other fruits; size is not a sure

indication of weight. The pound package used by Mr. Thos. Prince is

3-3/4 x 4-1/2 x 5-1/4 inches, which in 1907 when filled weighed 17

ounces, in 1908 it weighed 16 ounces, and in the dry year of 1909 it

weighed but 14 ounces.
