harvested with combines and hauled
with trucks it is rushed to market in
half the time required under old har-
vest methods. In times of such mar
keting congestion, growers of high
quality wheat are finding it profit
able to hold back the better grain un-
til it can be kept separate in the ele-
vator bins and marketed when the
full amount of the premium can be
obtained by the producer.
Montana wheat has a splendid repu-
tation on the terminal markets be-
cause of many desirable characters
tics, according to the information OBJ
tanned by the Experiment station at
Bozeman. Since the World war,
premiums have been paid for wheat
with these characteristics, chiefly be-
cause the supply of good milling grain
has become more and more scarce.
Growers in many states have allowed
their fields to become over-run with
weeds Continuous cropping of wheat
has depleted the original fertility of
the soil and a multitude of new vari-
cites have been introduced. Montana,
Western Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas
are looked upon as sources of high
grade milling wheat and their envi-
able reputation is due to the fact that
they have maintained their quality
better than other states.
Millers Favor Montana Wheat
The characteristics in wheat which
make it desirable from the standpoint
Of the miller are seven in number.
Millers want wheat that is dry because
if it has over Ia per cent of moisture,
it is not considered safe for storage,
High protein wheat is desired, espec-
tally in years when such wheat is
scarce, because bakers demand flour
of uniform protein content. Test
weight Is an important factor because
the higher the test weight the more
flour can be made from bushel of
wheat. Wheat that is free from dock
age brings an extra premium because
cleaning adds to the cost of milling.
Millers want wheat that is free from
variety mixtures because uniform
lots are necessary for proper blending
in the mill. Wheat that is free from
smut is in demand because smutty
wheat makes an inferior flour Free
dom from cracked kernels is impor-
tant since the best grade of flour can
not be made from cracked grain. 1t
is not one of these factors taken by
itself but all of them in relation to
one another which makes Montana
wheat desirable from the millers'
standpoint.
Protein Averaging lbs
The present market situation in
dicates that test weight rather than
protein will be the important factor
in determining premiums and dis
counts during the present season, ac-
cording to recent reports received by
the Extension service. The average
protein content of the first shipments
to Minneapolis was about 1880 per
cent, which is sufficient to make the
standard flour used by many bakers.
Whether the same condition will
prevail throughout the marketing sea
son will be determined by subsequent
developments. Many of the farmers
present requested that the Extension
service send them monthly releases on
| the wheat situation.
