ists say, would, on the other
hand, place a premium on bet
ter farm practices, resulting in
the production of drier grains.
Not only does the farmer
producing relatively dry grain
lose now when the moisture
content is not considered, but
the producer of high-moisture
grain often suffers an even
greater loss by having his pro
duct spoil on the farm, in tran
sit, or in commercial storage. If
he ships for sale to a distant
market, he also suffers loss by
having to pay freight on value
less water. If such a farmer
ships five cars of grain of 20
per cent moisture content, he
is in reality shipping four cars
of dry matter and one car of
water. If he had by proper
treatment brought his product
down to a 12 per cent moisture
content, he would be saving
freight on two-fifths of a car
of water.
It is better to have the price
of gasoline go skyward now
than during the spring and
summer months; it will soon
be time for sleigh bells.
