DIR. KNAPP TO THE RICE MEN.
How Inferior Grades Effect Prices of
Rice.-Rush to Market as a
PrOfit-Reducer.

The October Rice Journal publishes
the following 10y DIR. $. a. Knapp:
A few days since in conversation
with prominent miller, the impor-
lance of a thorough understanding by
the farmers, of the best way to raise
and prepare rice for the market and
how to market it was fully impressed
on me. 1t is of primary Importance
for rice farmer to know how to raise
good quality of rice; but if he wants
to get the most money out of his crop
he should study milling and American
markets. 1.-The common opinion among
farmers. ~ said the miller, ''is that the
buyer is using his knowledge of the
markets, to take undue advantage OF
the farmers. This IS not true. If a
farmer has choice rice, millers want
it md can afford to pay close to the
top of the market. 1t is the inferior
grades of rice, which we do not want,
that are so disappointing to the farm
er in price. On these grades we as
frequently lose as make"
l asked him to name some of the
sources of loss in inferior rice.
''It is impossible for buyer to de-
ter1nine exactly the per cent of weed
seeds, chaff, dirt, and inferior grains
in foul rice. These may amount to
five per cent or to fifteen. Some rice
is so chaIky, large mum Der of kerr
nels cruIble under the milling pro-
cess. The per cent is pure guess work.
Other rices do not crumble, but show
when finished chally sides or fail to
take a high polish. When on the mar
ket they lack finish. This reduces the
price. In other rice there is consider
able difference in the size of the grains.
This reduces the milling value"
There is value in these statements.
