solution is to add flag  "--force-device-scale-factor" in "/usr/bin/chromium-browser"
I added the following line
CHROMIUM_FLAGS="$CHROMIUM_FLAGS --force-device-scale-factor=1"
after the CHROMIUM_FLAGS definition in the script "/usr/bin/chromium-browser"

Title:
  Chromium UI is very large

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm using the chromium-browser build from
  https://launchpad.net/~cmiller/+archive/chromium-browser-dev-daily so
  that I can test touchscreen functionality. The entire app looks like
  it's been scaled up by a factor of at least 2x, so all UI
  elements/fonts/images are very large.

  To reproduce:
  1) Launch chromium

  Expected resuilts:
  Chromium uses system widget + font sizes

  Actual results:
  Chromium renders all UI elements at least 2x larger than normal.

  
  Browser version is: Version 35.0.1870.2 Ubuntu 14.04 aura (254650)

  This behavior happens regardless of whether I have the "UI scale"
  slider in the displays control panel set to 1 or some other value like
  1.25. Deleting the cache + preferences from ~/.cache/chromium and
  ~/.config/chromium does not fix the problem.
