TN GRADING all grain, eespe-
cially corn, the moisture con-
tent must be taken into cen
sideration. Sometimes even a
chemical analysis may be neces-
sary in close decisions.
The maximum Of moisture for
No. 1 wheat is 1876 per cent and
the most moisture allowed in any
wheat is 1916 per cent. Shelled
corn varies from IA to % per cent
before it is considered sample
grade.
The test is simply made by plac-
ing a weighed sample Of the grain
in q flask with oil and heat APP
piled to drive Off the moisture into
q gauge.
The board Of trade sampling
room in Chicago has tested thou
sands Of carr every season. Many
country elevators have small mois-
ture testers and it is recommended

that high school laboratories be-
also equipped so that farmers and
others in the country may learn
what moisture really means.
In the examination Of the sans
pies OF grain inspected, a standard
sample is used as a gauge and In
case Of doubtful grade, which Is
very near the line, a comparison 10
made with the standard, and q
final decision thus made.
# any party at interest, either
buyer or seller, should complain to
the state grain inspection depart
ment and fail to have his complaint
properly or %favorably considered by
them, it is the custom Of the board
Of trade to listen to his complaint,
and If it is in their Judgment rea-
sonable, the other parties at inter-
est shall be notified and the matter
taken up by the grain committee
with the state department, every
body being given an opportunity to
be heard. 49, ~'tn>~f1
