THRESHlNG LOSS
COST MILLIONS

When to thrcsh whether in the
field from the shock or later from
the stack, is an important question
the decision of which often costs
the farmer hundreds of dollars.
There can be no hard and fast
rule. In some seasons stack thresh-
ing proves best. in some seasons
early fall shock threslling gives
the larger returns.
The loss by thrcshing grain into
the straw pile in threshing ranges
from one-haIf of l per cent to 10
per cent on even more, with an av-
crage of perhaps . per cent, This
means Il loss TO the farmers of Mini
nrso1a year y worth at the present
prices about Tl,21O.O0O.
The loss is nearly always greater
in shock 1hrrShing than i'm stack
thrcshing: because the grain is un-
evenly cured; thrrshing often be-
gins early i'm the morning and con-
timucS until late i'm the evening,
when heavy ,icws prevent clean
thrrshing: the machine is fed
more or less unrvcny because Of
the constant changing of teams ut
the feeder; between loads the
machin" runs partly empty and tho
motion of the machine is more or
less unSteady; great pressue is
cXcrted TO finish one job and move
to the next while the weather is
good; help is also hard to get, and
the farmer has little time TO watch
the work of he machine as closely
as he might.
Early threshing grain heats in
the bin. especially if thrcshcd when
il is Il little damp and the weather
continues rainy after thrcShing. 1t
should be stored in small bins, and
stirred frequently if signs Of
heating develops.
The percentage of termination
OF grain treshed early from the
shock and stored is very likely to
be- less than of grain that has come
through, the sweat in the stack and
been threshed later i'm the fall.
Then, too, the straw from early
threshed grain is usually not SO
good as if stacked and tIrrshel
later.
Some of the advantages vi shock
threshng are that ii saves the work
of stacking and if a person hap
pens to be among the first farmers
to tIl"sh. il gives an opportunity
to start the pillow earlier in the fall.
1 the grain is to be- sold, il often
happens hat the price is better
carly in thr fall than later.
II is suggested that whenever
grain is ready 10 stack. il the
thl"Shrr is NOT ready to pull into
tn" field. the farmers do moi wait
FOR the thr"sh"r. but put his teams
and men Immediately to stacking.
Then, if bad weather comes ON the
grain that is in the stack, ii prop
rrly stacked. will be safe and the
teams can start at the plowing.-L.

acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the blood
and they become sort of paralyzed
and loggy. When your kidneys get
sluggish and clog you must relieve
them like you relieve your bowelsi

sours, tongue is coated, and when
the weather is bad you have rheu-
matte twinges. The urine is cloudy,
full sof sediment, channels often get
sore, water scalds and you are oblig-
during the night.
Either consult a good. reliable ply

and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also
to neutralize acids in the urine so It
