TARE AND TRET.

Definitions.

1. Tare and Tret are practical rules for deducting certain allowances made by merchants and tradesmen in selling their goods by weight.

2. Gross Weight is the whole weight of any sort of goods, together with the box, barrel, bag, &c. that contains it.

3. Tare is an allowance made to the buyer for the weight of the box, barrel, bag, chest, wrappers, &c.

4. Tret is an allowance of 4lb. in 104lb. for waste, dust, &c.

5. Cloff, or draught, is an allowance of 2lb. for every 3cwt. made by the seller to the buyer, that the weight may hold good, when sold by retail.

6. Suttle is when part of the allowance is deducted from the gross.

7. Neat Weight is what remains after all allowances are deducted.

Proposition 1. When the tare is at so much in the whole gross weight, to find the neat weight.
