Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
Section 1.
				Wheat or corn may be shipped from railway stations in South Carolina.
Section 2. To milling points located on the
				railroads in South Carolina and milled and the product reshipped to stations in
				South Carolina under the following rules, viz.:
Section 3. Shipments of wheat or corn to be
				milled in transit must be filled to the milling point at full tariff
				rates.
Section 4. Original bills of
				lading and expense bills for wheat or corn (the product of which is to be
				reshipped), must be surrendered to the railroad's agent at milling
				point.
Section 5. These bills of
				lading and expense bills must be cancelled so as to prevent their use a second
				time.
Section 6. The agent at
				milling point must keep a ledger account with the mill, which should show the
				receipts of wheat or corn, and the shipments of each kind of milled product
				made thereunder.
Section 7.
				Waybills for the product from milling points must show the original point of
				shipment of the wheat or corn from which it is milled and the number and date
				of the waybill upon which it is received at the mill.
Section 8. When the conditions of these rules
				have been fully complied with the agent at the milling point is authorized to
				waybill shipments of milled products at the difference between the rate on the
				wheat or corn into the mill and the rate on the milled product for a distance
				equal to the sum of the distance from point of origin of the grain (from which
				milled), to the milling point, plus the distance from the milling point to
				destination of the milled product, as provided for in local tariff of all
				railroads.
For example, the agent at Rock Hill, S. C., has a shipment of
				  flour in sacks milled from wheat received from a point 75 miles distant from
				  Rock Hill, to be reshipped to a point 50 miles from Rock Hill. In this instance
				  the total haul is 125 miles. The rate on the wheat into the mill is 19 cents,
				  the rate on the flour in sacks (Class C) for a distance of 125 miles is 27
				  cents. Shipments should be waybilled from Rock Hill to destination at the
				  difference between the rate on the grain into the mill and the rate on flour in
				  sacks for the combined distance, or 125 miles which is 8 cents per hundred
				  pounds.
