Rule 8. Unless otherwise agreed upon in testing the weight
of cheese, not less than five (5) boxes or more than ten
(10) per cent of the whole lot shall be a test, and said
test shall be considered good for three (3) business days,
including day test is made.
Rule 9. In testing weights, all over and short weights
shall be taken into the average on each particular
factory. Single Daisies shall be tested on half pounds,
Double Daisies and all other sizes on even pounds.
Rule 10. Where a lot of cheese is found to test irregular
in weights, either the buyer or seller may require the
entire lot to be reweighed. The charge for same shall be
three (3) cents per box.
Rule 11. Boxes of cheese which may be found largely at
variance from original weights shall not enter into the
average, but their weight shall be separately ascertained
and certified to by the weigher.
Rule 12. Where sales are made, and the buyer finds damaged
or sour cheese in excess of fifteen (15) per cent it shall
be optional with him to refuse or receive the remainder of
the lot purchased. But, in the event of his accepting the
remainder of the lot, the sour or damaged cheese shall
revert to the seller.
Rule 13. The Committee on Cheese shall appoint subject to
the approval of the Executive Committee, a Cheese
Inspector and also a Deputy Inspector, whose duties shall
be, when called upon by members of the Exchange, to
inspect the quality and condition of such lots of cheese
as may be required and to render a certificate of such
inspection. Where the cheese in the lots are reasonably
uniform in quality, the examination of 10 per cent of the
lot shall be considered sufficient, but this shall not
prevent the Inspector examining a larger percentage of the
lot, when he deems it necessary. The fee for inspection
shall be fifty (50) cents for lots consisting of fifty
(50) boxes or less. Lots exceeding fifty (50) boxes shall
be one cent per box, which shall be collected from the
member ordering the inspection.
Rule 14. The Cheese Inspector's certificate shall be made
to read as follows:
NEW YORK MERCANTILE EXCHANGE
_Cheese Inspector's Certificate_
Inspection No.__________
