Washlnjrton Wheat lias
t Per Cent of Smut.
Kittitas county wheat is reported
as free from smut as that of any
district ill Washington less than 1 per
cent of smuit was found . in fields
where the disease existed at all. Jn
many fields of eastern Washington,
according to the experts, the percent
age of smut runs as high as 50 percent
to the acre. The wide use of the
standard formaldehyde treatment ad
vocated by the department of agricul
ture is believed responsible. ,
already In the sack and considerable
headway has been made in the spring
grain and barley. Yields throughout
this section are holding up consider
ably better than pre-harvest estimates,
with few reports of under 30 bushels
in fall wheat and many better than 49.
Grain men estimate that fully 1.000,
000 bushels of wheat will be sold in

cent of this total already marketed at
prices around the 2 mark. Eighty
per cent of the winter wheat Is being
discounted for smut, the discount,

NEW WHEAT SCALE TO
TAKE EFFECT TUESDAY
-
After two days consideration by
wheat Director Barnes with the of.
fleers of the United States Grain cor
poration, of the problem raised In
respect to this year's wheat crop suf
fering from the effects of - adverse
weather conditions during the grow
ing and harvesting season, the Grain
corporation has reframed Its. scale of
discounts for the lower grades of
wheat on a basis calculated to giva the
producer the benefit of every doubt
as to the value of -light weight wheat
in order to protect as far as possible
those producers in wide sections that
have suffered unfavorable . crop- de
velopments with the production of an
unusual quality of low grade: wheat.
This scale Is effective September 2,
and alt dealers will be required to pay
producers not less than the' proper
country point reflection of the ter
minal guaranteed price " for'. No." 1
wheat and with the relation for other
grades as follows: .
No. 2 wheat. We under No. 1 No. 3
wheat, 3c under "No., 2 No. 4 wheat.
4c under No. 3. No. 6 wheat, 4c un
der No. 4. ,
For all wheat otherwise conforming
to the specifications of No. 5 or better
hut deficient in test weight, discount
No. 5 price 3c for each one pound de
ficiency oh test. Wheat grading below
No.-6 for reason other than deficien
cy test weight shall be bought on its
relative merits, smutty wheat to be
discounted from 2c for slightly smut
ty, to larger discounts, according to
degree of smut. Mixed wheat will he
taken at discounts ranging from 2c to
5c according to quality. In the Judg
ment of each vice president, mixed
wheat and rye grading mixed grain
will be discounted at follows:
Estimate the average value of the
wheat and rye separately at their pro.
per value and In their proper propor
tion figuring the rye at 60 pounds per
bushel, make allowance for dockage
or other Inseparable foreign material.
