The more dots, the stronger the snuff. This helped the workers who were filling the bottles before labels were attached, to know which strength to put in which bottle, as well as the consumer, who might have been illiterate and unable to read the label to determine the strength.
The W.E. Garrett and Sons Scotch Snuff is trademarked in 1870, being one of the first ten trademarks in US history, number 7, and the oldest trademark still in use in the US. After the death of Willam E. Garrett and William Garrett Jr., the remaining brother Walter sold the snuff mill to three of his employees for one dollar.
