Still every farmer kno} that it was the cow that helped him through hard times and that it will always do thi After each of the addresses given at the meeting, questions from the farmers in attendance were in or- der; “and there surely were plenty asked,” Mr. Schneider si Special ion was eXtended to ques- on problems with which each individual had to contend with, and following the me: any one who wished to talk th farm. d problems over with the dairy spec ist were invited to wait for a per- sonal conference.

The first thing to be considered in determining whether you are to clean to a no- dockage basis or whether you will leave one or two percent of dockage in the grain, depends entirely upon the character of the grain and the “| character of the dockage which c: bg removed. Close cleaning of grain usually results in a small shrinkage in the net weight, due to a loss of whole or large pieces of cracked ker- nels in the screenings, “It is in this particular connection that directors of farmers elevators should be well posted on the benefits and results of cleaning so that they can make arrangements with their managers to take advantage of every sible profit which may result from close and careful cleaning, although the manager may of necessity show a slight shrinkage in the net weight of wheat or flax at the end of the year, “The other question which natur- ally “arises in deciding what grain to clean is whether grain containing only'4 or 6 percent of dockage can be profitably cleaned. This question can only be answered with a full | knowledge of the type of cleaning machinery in the elevator and even jthen wonid differ with different lots ‘of wheat and: flax.

There are several good cleaners on the market, and since the manuf: turers are beginning to realize that sain cleaners should not be sold on a first cost basis alone, the qual- ity of the cleaners and ‘the c'! f !work they will do is being coi ly improved.” Professor L.
