Book Description
The United States standard container act of 1928, which establishes standards for hampers, round stave baskets, and splint baskets, completes the standardization of baskets begun by the standard container act of 1916. Both laws place upon the United States Department of Agriculture the duty of making capacity tests of baskets to determine whether they comply with the law. Since many of the States either have laws on the subject or have conferred upon some State department the authority to promulgate regulations establishing standard containers, the method and apparatus used by the Federal department in making tests becomes of general interest.
