This is an error; we give you Avoirdupois weight, 16 ounces to the pound. Apothecaries weight is used only in pre scriptions or in the prepar ation of medicinal prepara tions. One pound Apoth ecary- consists of 12 ounces of 480 grains each, a total of 5760 grains to the pound. One pound Avoir dupois consists of sixteen ounces of 4372 grains each, a total of 7000 grains to the pound.
