The document provides conversion factors between various units of mass and weight including grains, drams, ounces, pounds, stones, quarters, and tons. It also includes a table showing the relationship between relative humidity (RH), temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit, and grains of water vapor per pound of dry air. Finally, it mentions that grains of water is commonly used in psychrometrics to measure humidity levels.
