DETECTO -GRAM STOPS LOSSES! 
You'd pick up a penny from the floor because 
you see it there. But what about the dollars 
that are lost daily through unseen over-weight? 
Overweight steals a good part of profit. Ordi¬ 
nary scales aren't sensitive enough to weigh 
seeds. By using a Detecto-Gram, overweight loss 
is eliminated, and at the same time customers are 
assured of full packages. 
Make your own test on the Detecto-Gram. Place 
a dollar bill on the platter, and you will be 
amazed how the indicator swings and shows the 
weight of this single dollar bill. The wide travel 
of the Detecto-Gram indicator shows even the 
slightest weight error. An air-controlled dashpot 
cushions the movement of the indicator so that it 
stops immediately at correct weight, saving the 
operator's time. 
Detecto-Gram is famous in the seed industry be¬ 
cause each weighing problem is treated indi¬ 
vidually. Write for complete information and 
prices on the Detecto-Gram that will answer your 
weighing need. Of course, without obligation.
