THIRTY-EIGHTH ANNUAL CONVENTION 309 



tester in the weigh room, providing there is sufficient room and 

 window light. The tester should always be placed on a good 

 solid foundation, and should never be set on a wooden bench, 

 as has been so common in the past. A good foundation can be 

 made of concrete, and it will cost very little, if any more, than 

 it will to build something that is very unsatisfactory. It is 

 safe to say that when the tester is placed on a good foundation 

 it will run much smoother, and do better work than it would if 

 set on some shaky wooden stand. It is also reasonable to be- 

 lieve that a tester standing on a good foundation will last much 

 longer than it otherwise would.
