per cent of the spring wheat. In one
instance farmers wheat crop con-
tanned 14.3 per cent of rye. On this
account the farmer received eight
cents less per bushnell than the normal
price.
In considerable percentage of the
wheat samples examined, the presence
of rye was said to be due probably to
the fact that the seed used in sowing
the wheat contained rye. 1t is not in
frequent for rye to scatter during
harvest and to produce in this way a
volunteer crop. If wheat is sown on
land which was planted in rye the pre-
vious season. this volunteer crop of
rye is harvested with the wheat. Par.
tial winter killing of the wheat in.
creases the percentage of rye, because
the latter grain is not so susceptible
10 winter killing as the former.
Corn cookie, although less frequent
III wheat than rye, has a more injur-
Gus effect. The presence of even l per
cert of this weed seed in wheat is like
ly to lower the price to the farmer and
certainly lowers the baking quality of
the flour. Corn cookie is an exceed
ingly prolific annual weed, single
plant having been known to yield As
high as $500 seed. Furthermore, this
seed is of such shape and size that it
is difficult to separate it fro n the
wheat. The weed is widely distribut-
ed over the United States, and is es-
pecially abundant in sections produc-
ing soft red winter, spring and Durum
wheat. Every farmer should strive to
prevent its obtaining a foothold on his
farm.
AS has already been stated, the pre-
sence OF any of these impurities is
likely to reduce the price the farmer
receives for his wheat. Not only is
the price per bushel usually less, but
there may also be a "dockage" charge
Dockage is a trade term for the
amount deducted on account of the
presence of foreign material from the
gross wheat of the wheat. For exam
ne. if load of fifty bushels of wheat
Is found to contain two pounds of for
eign matter per bushel, 100 pounds is
deducted from the lot for "dockage."
The farmer is paid, not for fifty bu-
shells. but for fifty bushels less 100
pounds, or fortv-eight bushels and
twenty pounds Of wheat.

The Effect OF Impurities In Wheat

Recent experiments by the Depart
ment of Agriculture indicate that the
presence in wheat of more than 2 per
cent of what are known to millers as
"inseparable impurities" lessons the
value of the wheat for milling and
making purposes. The experiments
conducted by the Department are dis
cussed in detail in Bulletin No. 1913. Of

tests showed that rye occurs most fire.

Some Kinds Of Light

But an oil lamps just the same
If it does the best it can o. nights
To scatter wide its flame.
Just so We are some kinds of light
Some hope, some help, some cheer
1t makes it worth the while to fight
In the fine old struggle here.
We can't all be the biggest guns,
But little gun may find
There's lots of need where this life
runs
For the guns of every kind.
And many a battle has been turned
back
To victory from defeat
Because of some small batterv's
whack
When the army thought it beat.
Some kind of light, some kind of
cheer,
Some kind of help, some strength;
We've all part to follow here
That means lot at length:
We all can shine a little wav
With the light we have to give:
We all can turn the shadows CAV
With smile that helps men live.
Don't worry if you're not a CLEAN
Set high DER tower or town;
The world can make a candle beam
And march to grea, renown;
And the little ray you cast may be
Just the light some neighbor needs
To lead him on through life to see
His way to nobler deeds.
