Each county sealer of weights and measures shall appoint, by writing under his hand and seal, one or more inspectors, who shall compare weights and measures whereever they are used or maintained for use within his county, or which are brought to the office of the county sealer for that purpose, with the copies of the standards in the possession of the county sealer. Such inspectors shall receive a salary fixed by the county sealer, to be paid by the county, which shall be instead of all fees or charges otherwise allowed by law. Such inspectors shall also be employed by the county sealer to assist in the prosecution of all violations of law relating to weights and measures.
