"The making of a nrtt-clasa properly tested thermometer thermome-ter la a difficult Job, demanding time and skilled workmanship of the highest high-est character. It Is dono entirely by hand, and each Instrument la kept under un-der observation In the shops for at least a month Yet people expect to buy something for 30 or 40 centa that will never vary from tho official figure, of the algnal office." |
