r HAVE read with interest numerous
articles with regard to the practice of
. sacking grain and also handling it in
bulk. 1t may interest some who have
never seen the latter method employed,
to learn how it is done in the Central
States.
Leaving the farm in the Spring OF 80,
my father and l built an elevator In
Brimfield, ILL.,, and were in the business
ten years. AS l had owned and operated
a threshing machine, corn shelter and
clover huller previous to going into bust
ness, | can speak from experience; and it
seems to me that the following is the
easiest and quickest way.
The farmers in each neighborhood ex-
change work during threshing and corn
Smelling. All have tight wagon boxes,
holding from 80 to 100 bushels of oats.
Each machine is equipped with an ele-
vator which carries the grain high enough
to run into a scale box. 1t is weighed
by automatic scales, then run out in a
swinging spout. which Is long enough to
swing from the full wagon to an empty
one.
Each hauler shovels his own load and
drives direct to the elevator unless stor-
Ing 1t at home.
Some farmers have a portable granary,
which can be drawn by two horses wher-
ever the straw stack Is wanted. (No
straw is burned there and the grain is
shoveled and run into the elevator, which
avoids shoveling it back. With lumber as
cheap as it is in the Northwest this plan
could be used to advantage.)
When the load arrives at the elevator
the load and driver are weighed on plat
form scales, which are set inside of the
office with glass front, with figures on

The best time to apply lime" says NJ.
A. Bachtell, of the Ohio Agricultural Col
lege, SIS during the preparation of the
seed bed for corn. The thorough cultiva-
ton of this crop mixes the lime with the
upper soil. BY the time clover Is sown
on that soil the lime has changed it from
a sour to a sweet condition. The time
for applying lime, however, admits OF wide
variation. Usually a busy Spring compels
the farmer to spend his time in getting
ready for the seasons planting. If lining
is neglected 1t can be done at the time OF
the preparation of the seed bed for wheat.
Lime should not be applied to the sur
face and Immediately plowed under as
this tends to place it too far from the sur
face, where it is needed. Neither should
the canstic forms, hydrated lime and
quicklime, be applied in connection with
manure and fertilizers.
ut is better to pillow the manure under
and put the lime on top of the soil. In
case the manure is desired for top-dress-
ing, the lime should be worked into the
soil at least two weeks prior to applica-
tien of the manure. Likewise 1t is well to
apply the lime some time previous TO COM
mercial fertilizers.

Practice of Handling Grain in Bulk

both sides of beam in view OF the driver,
who can see whether the weights called
Off compare with those on the beam. He
drives up the incline into the elevator
upon two dump logs, with lever attached.
A trap door is then opened in the floor at
the rear end of the wagon. The lower
end-gate Is made with a hinge in the mid
die, SO 1t can be taken out without re-
moving the others. When removed and
the lever pulled, the rear end OF the wagon
Is dropped letting the grain run through
the trap door to the hopper, which Is at
tached to the elevator. When the wagon
is emptied 1t is thrown in crosswise, the
wagon weighed, and the driver given a
weight ticket.
We have weighed a load, dumped it,
weighed the wagon, been given a ticket
and elevated the load in one and one-half
minutes. Three minutes was the aver
age time. The grain loaded direct to the
cars have been filled in eight minutes. To
load, nail up a car, and run it into place
took about 80 minutes. No cleaning ma
chine was needed If the grain was cleaned
at the threshing machine and corn shell
Ter.
Three loads were handled there to one
here, in the same distance, direct to the
elevator. Here 1t took me all day to make
one trip, having to wait so long for my
turn. Considering the cost Of sacks,
thread and amount Of extra men, the
amount saved amounts to quite a sum.

Portland Stockyard Notes
Monday. April 26, 1915.

The market opened today with 40 cars
of cattle, eight of hogs and three Of sheep.
When the stock train came in yester-
day 40 loads of cattle looked like too
many for the trade, but up to the hour
this is written all classes are moving
readily at steady prices.
Top granted steers of fancy quality
are selling for IT'S with the bulk Of
sales on granted stuff at 1875 to $50.
One load brought 1865.
Hay-fed cattle are selling from rs to
SO cents under those finished on grain.
Cows and heifers are going at a dollar
a hundred under the prices obtained for
steers of like quality.
The hog market made another jump to-
day and tops brought s cents, with the
majority of sales at 1876. Heavy and
roughs are selling a dollar a hundred un-
der tops and pigs weighing from 100 to
1875 pounds rs cents under.
The sheep market is holding fairly
steady today, but every indication points
to a lower market here before many
weeks have passed.
Today Spring lambs are selling for
SIS, yearlings, 7.25 to $50; ewes, 5.25;
wethers, 6.75 to 7. These prices apply to
SHARED stock. Those with the wool on
sell a dollar higher on the hundred.
Ed Cole, of Haines, Or, the man who
for the past three years has shown the
grand champion load of steers at the
International, is a shipper today and re-
ports the range in his section as badly in
need of rain and that unless it m soon
the grass there will be very short this
season.
M. L. Goodwin, of Brogan, Or, had the
honor of selling the first load of hogs
to bring s cents a pound in 1915.
Van Syke Bros, of Milton, Or, sold a
load of cattle today for 1855, one of the
high marks of the session.
