] GENERAL NEWS !:
Paw Freight on Dirt.
5m0a0noHeneRa0 o0Reaon0

5 r. w. Eva, state grain inspec-
tor, is out with a statement in
which he urges grain raisers to
be more thoro in cleaning their
grain, so as to save dockage and
the extra freight charges which
they pay on dirt and foreign
seeds. Mr., Eva says the new
method of inspecting all grain
In the office has proved more
satisfactory, both to shipper and
receiver. Grading is more uni
form, and dockage on the whole
no greater. There is too much
foul or foreign matter shipped,
however. On this point Mr..
Eva says.
The question Of freight on
dockage may seem to the ininiti-
ed d small matter but it is really
a matter of great Importance.
The grain growers of Minnesota
would be surprised if they knew
how many thousands of dollars
are paid to the transportation
companies annually for this one
item. The only remedy would
seem to be greater care upon the
part of the threshermen and
farmers in cleaning the grain
when threshing it.
The modern threshing machine
will, if properly handled, clean
the grain so we'll that only a
small percentage of foreign seeds
will be found in it. If the farm
er is careless, the thresher will
allow the screen to clog and run
the foreign seed into the grain.
He prehaps feels that he is en-
titled to pay for threshing it.,
and possibly he is, but if so it
would be much more profitable
to the farmer to pay the thresher
for removing it than for leaving
it in the grain. If he hawls it to
an elevator it is deducted from
his load, or if he ships 1t he pays
freight to terminal, where it is
taken out as dockage and he is
out the freight as we'll as the
foreign seeds.
1t would seem that those seeds
should be of some value to the
farmer as feed, but no such value
exists. It certainly would bebett-
er to remove them from the grain
and destroy them than to haul or
pay for hauling them to the
market and get nothing for them.
IL the farmers would insist upon
having the grain cleaned as well
