Print on Demand. This book reviews progress made from 1848 to 1856 by the United States Office of Weights and Measures. Reporting on the construction and distribution of standard weights and measures both domestically, with state-by-state accounts, and abroad, to foreign governments and institutions. The book also reviews the provision of balances for states by the Treasury Department under joint resolution of 1838. It discusses the gauges and hydrometers supplied to custom houses and the outreach efforts undertaken by the author. Throughout the book, the author makes observations on the history and practice of establishing uniform weights and measures.

This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. …
