An apparatus for measuring the percentage of moisture content and weight of a sheet-like object has a pair of metal boxy sections for providing a cavity resonator with openings, defining a gap interposed therebetween. In measurement, the sheet-like object is inserted in the gap. The percentage of moisture content of the sheet-like object is measured by detecting the variable resonant voltage of a microwave signal introduced into the cavity resonator. Weighing of the sheet-like object is measured detecting the variable resonant frequency of the microwave signal introduced.
