selves with the correct methods OF
grading. grain under Federal stan
dards for wheat, shelled corn and
oats, Federal Grain Supervisor, 4
B. Seeds will conduct grain grading
demonstrations in connection with
the Combined Agricultural Exhibits
of the United States Department OF
Agriculture at the State Fair. AT
this demonstration a fully equipped
grain inspection Office will be ar
ranged with exactly the same equip
ment and appliances that are used
by the licensed grain inspectors in
the large markets and offices OF
Federal grain Supervision. Samples
of wheat, shelled corn and oats will
be handled the same way as in &C:
tual inspection to show how the
grades are determined. A more linn
tied and less expensive set of equip
ment which has been suggested by
the U. S. Department Of Agriculture,
as convenient to apply Federal
grades at country points, will also
be shown.
In order to make the demonstra-
ton thoroughly practical, farmers
are invited to bring samples of their
grain to the demonstration booth in
order that factors that determine
the grades may be indicated or their
own grain.
Each day formal demonstrations
will be made in the "open school, -
exactly as would be in the Office of
any inspection department n the
!crge markets. Besides the grain
grading equipment, type trays show
ing classes, grades and varieties of
grain, publications Of the U. s. De-
rartment of Agricu tue relating to
grain and grain grading will be dis
tributed, and photographs will be on
display showing various phases Ct
Federal Grain Supervision Work.
The importance Of these demon
strations, says F. L. Harkey, Agent
in Marketing, has been emphasized
because the u. s. Grain Corporation
is requiring the proper application
Of the Federal grades by country
buyers in order to properly reflect
tn guaranteed price schedule to the
local points. Properly applied grades
insure a premium grade for pre-
MUM quality wheat. One object of
the demonstration is to enable local
wheat buyers to be fully informed
as to the grade requirements
