the country miller or grain dealer buys
wheat as delivered at fiat rate, or on
the basis of the average quality deliv.
cred, the price paid usually is suffi
GENTLY low to protect the buyer
against loss caused by Objectionable
foreign material delivered with the
general run of the grain.
Under the dockage system Of the
federal standards. however, the
amount of such foreign material sep
arated and considered as dockage is
deducted from the weight of the wheat
purchased and, in any event, does not
affect the grade of the wheat after it
has been cleaned. This results in a
higher grade, and the price paid is on
the basis of this grade.
After the dockage is removed from
the original sample and the test weight
per bushel has been determined, the
sample is then examined to ascertain
whether an analysis is to be made for
any other factors which determine the
grade.
Methods Of Handling Doekage.
Various satisfactory methods of
handling dockage may be employed in
normal times. Where wheat is cleaned
on the farm or at the country elevator
and only the screened wheat is deliv-
cred to the local buyer, there is less
possibility of difference of opinion re-
garding the grade of wheat delivered.
Such an arrangement tends to estab-
fish greater confidence in the grades
given by the local buyer. When nox-
ious weed seeds are present it is adj
visable to have the removed dockage
ground before feeding to prevent the
/. further spread of these weeds on the
farm. In many cases such material
has relatively high feed value and
often farmers will find it to their ad-
vantage to remove the dockage them
selves or have their local buyers do it
for them. The bulletin describes
other methods of handling dockage
and making allowance therefor.
Further information as to the cor
rect method of determining dockage In
wheat may be obtained by writing the
United States department of agricul-
ture, Washington, or by writing to or
visiting the nearest office of federal
grain supervision. Such offices are To-
Gated in the large grain markets. A
farmer or country grain dealer may
also mail sample to the nearest
grain inspector and receive for small
fee an official certificate showing the
grade and dockage on that particular
sample. This sample should be two
quarts in size. of which at least 11s
pints is inclosed In clean. alright
container. The remainder, if any, with
the container, should be placed in a
clean cloth sack. The address of the
nearest licensed grain inspector can be
secured by writing the department or
any supervision office.

LLOYD GEORGE.

IL Is not easy to find Premier Lloyd
Georges undcrstudy for the Washing
ton conference, now that events have
determined that Mr. George must stay
at home. OF the possible substitutes
mentioned Mr.. Balfour and Borar Law
are the best known In America. There
Is no thought In British government
circles OF sending to Washington one
of the leaders OF the opposition. The
chief British plenipotentiaries have 20
be in political sympathy with the
ministry OF the day. That rules out
such men as Lord Grey, Mr.. Asuuith
and Sir Robert Cecil.
The New Statesman this summer
suggested special reason for the
difficulty encountered in finding 9
statesman Of the flrat rank To- serve as
an understudy for the premier. The
New Statesman was advocating Lloyd
George himself as the chief delegate,
and IL said with brutal candor:
After all. Mr.. Lloyd George Is the
prime minister of Great Britain. lie
is being maintained In power by an
overwhelming majority OF Lords and
Commons: and presumably he is the
prime minister whoia xe deserve. tr
general grounds we regret, quite as
much as the Times does, that the
British empire should be represented
either in Washington or In Timbuctoo
by a man of Mr.. Lloyd Georges type
and character. For Englishmen are
not dodgers and cannot be adequately
represented by dodger.

remains that MIR. Lloyd George is the
British government: and whilst that
| is the case we can see no object i'm
asking anyone else--Lord Grey ol
Lord Robert Cecil Or Austen Chamber
lain--to represent us abroad In any
case, no one but fool or satellite
would accept the job; for Mr.. Lloyd
George does not support his under.
studies; and Lord Grey Cfor instancel
would have no kind OF assurance, il
he were TO go to Washington again
that his declarations or undertaking.
would be honored in Downing street
On the whcle therefore, that Mr.. Lloy
George himself should go would seen
10 be the most satisfactory plan; TO
as things stand, no one else can com
NIT the British government to any
thing.

stays at home, he will permit NJ
