entails an enormous economic waste.
This wastage may be practically elm
mated by the universal practice of
better cultural methods in growing
wheat, by cleaning wheat for seed and
market on the farm as part of the
threshing operation, or later by the
use of tanning mill or other grain
cleaning device, or at the country ele-
vatOr where power-driven cleaning
machines are available.
Clean land and pure seed will re-
suit in the production of more wheat
and less waste material, clean wheat
will bring better price on the mar
ket, the freight on the dockage will
be saved, and the screenings viii be
available for feed on the farm.

NELS MOE CHAMPION
OF WESTERN CANADA
WELL KNOWN WRESTLER FROM
ARCHER NOW CHAMPION OF
WESTERN CANADA.

Nels Moe is making fast strides to-
ward the wrestling championship of
Canada and he will soon be matched
with the champion to settle the title.
Mr.. Moe is we'll known in Plenty
wood and Sheridan county where he
has done considerable wrestling. But
Nels is a different wrestler now than
what he was then. He has been pain
ing experience rapidly, having had
match after match until it simmered
down to two men whom he had ct
thrown and recently he defeated these
two men, making him the chan ,1iOn
of western Canada and emitting linn
to a chance to wrest the title of
champion of Canada from the pres
ent holder.
Friday, January 5th, Moe wrestled
Tom johnson, the Winnipeg Police
man, and threw him twice in 26 min
utes.
The following Tuesday, January 9th
Nels wrestled Herucules johnson, the
strong man from the United States.
johnson is supposed to be one of the
strongest men in the country and he
did with ease throw Moe off several
times, but Moe was so much faster
and more clever that he threw him
twice in 26 minutes.
Mr.. Noes friends in this vicinity
will be glad to hear of his success and
hope that when he meets the Cana
dian champion that he will bring
home the bacon.

FOREIGN MATERIAL
In SPRING WHEAT

(From Farmers Bulletin No. 1887,
u. S. Dept of Agricultural
The foreign material found in
spring wheat includeg weed seeds,
pieces Of straw, chaff, and cereal
grains other than wheat. Weed seeds
form the larger and most objection
able part Of this material.
The foreign material that can be
separated readily by appropriate grain
cleaning devices is called dockage.
When wheat is offered for sale on the
market the amount of dockage in the
wheat is determined and if 1 or more
per cent is found deduction is made
on settlement.
The dockage assessed in Minnesota
by the Minnesota State Grain Inspec-
ton Department averaged % per cent
for the 1903 crop, and the average
increased to 40 per cent for the 1920
crop.
Montana, Minnesota, North Dakota
and South Dakota lead in the produc-
ton of hard spring wheats. On the
basis of the Minnesota inspections
these four states produced over 5,OOO,-
600 bushels of dockage in the 1920
crop. Applying that basis to the to-
tai spring wheat crop of this coun-
try. more than 9,5OO,OOO bushels of
dockage were produced that year.
To produce, thresh, and move g.
5000 bushels of dockage to market

William E. Sweet Of Colorado an
nounced Saturday.
Governor Blaine outlines several
subjects which he believes shouJd he
discussed, including maintenance Of
state control of interstate functions
against federal encroachment: publi-
city for tax returns and consideration
Of the question of production, distri-
button and price of coal"
Executives of the following states
would be included in the conference:
Arizona, Colorado, Montana, Wyom-

Iowa.
The letter from Governor Blaine
follows:

'Hon. William E. Sweet, governor
of Colorado, Denver, Colo.
"My dear Governor Sweet:

gressive members of the senate and

conference was non-political and nom

good will come out of the Washington
conference. / also feel that a confer

together with the fruit of Organiza-
ton in a form that can approach
sources of credit Unavailable to the
individual farmer, and approach them
with a security for liens of much
higher value than the individual farm
er can offer.
Value Remains Steadier.
The value of the crop is not greater
than when it is in the hands of the
individual farmers, but that value re-
mains steadier and is backed by the
valuation of succeeding crops when it
is being handled by cooperative or
CARNATIONS.
Some of the cO-Operatives are today
borrowing 4 IL per cent money for
their farmers, and the same machine
ry which thus makes safer distribu-
ton credits will eventually prove the
means of changing the production

the farmers need without strain up
on our banking interests.

a powerful solution, a solution deal
ing with the distribution of products
that are a life necessity to every man,
woman and child, and therefore, a
solution in which the consumer is as
vitality interested as the producer.
The succeeding articles Of this Sc
ries will deal with the effect OF this
marketing process from
the non-farmer's viewpoint.

There are II witnesses to be
