3. A Pound of Butter Once, there was a farmer who regularly sold butter to a baker. One day, the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting the exact amount that he asked for.

I don’t have a proper measure, but I do have a scale.” The judge replied, “Then how do you weight the butter?” The farmer replied; “Your Honor, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him.
