AXD DISCOUNT N WHEAT
(fly 0 .K Ppence. Ma-ket Ag'-nt,
72 1 Court House, Putlauci)
In 1921 the statp legislature
amrjiidVJ the grain Inspection act,
and provided a schedule premiums
and discount for different varieties
and weights of wheat. This amend
ment has not been enforced.
The Northwest Grain Dealers' as
sociation, in session in Spokane,
Wash., June 18, 1923, adopted a
schedule of discounts, but it pays no
premiums on wheat that weighs
more than the basio (58 pounds) and
their discounts run too low when the
millUg value of the light wheat is
considered.
The values of wheat, under the
amended law, are bas,ed very closely
on the Howard laboratory tests of
Minneapolis recognized as the high
est authority in the country.
The following schedules, ordered
by the state market agent, C. E.
Spence, carry out the provisions of
the amended law of 1921, and will
be in effect on and after September
1, 1923. This table of prices, in re
lation to test weight of Soft Red
winter, Common White and White
Club wheat is worked out for each
pound and half of pound test weight
o.nd based on a price of 1 cent per
bushel for No. 2 wheat weighing 58
pounds per bushel, as provided in
the 1921 amendment to the Oregon
Grain Inspection act.
For premium No. 2 or better
wheat testing over 58 pounds per
bushel.

To determine the price per bushel
for any wheat included in the lisi,
find the figure in the price column
opposite the test weight figure cor
responding to your wheat. Multiply
it by the number of cents the price
for 58 pound wheat of that class.

T. B.-FREE DAIRY CATTLE
WIXS PREMICM FOR HOiS
Freedom from tuberculosis of
dairy cattle means a better price for
hogs, when the fact is properly guar
anteed. A premium of 10 cents per hun
dred pounds on live hogs received
from Clatsop and Tillamook counties
has been offered by Swift & Co.
That is because the counties have
been declared free of tuberculosis
as a result of several years of per
sistent work in testing and eradica
tion. Some 40 thousand dairy cattle ex
clusive of th,e Clatsop and Tillamook
herds were tested last year by the
United States department of agricul
ture, the office of state veterinarian,
the extension service and the various
counties. The local dairymen are as
sisted by the county agents in plan
ning the campaign.
Klamath and Jackson counties are
conducting vigorous campaigns, and
Multnomah planning to. Crook, Mor
rom, Umatilla, Wasco and Washiug
to ncounties are doing some testing.
Benton, Clackamas, Lane, Umatil
la, Linn. Polk and Columbia did
much work last year, the last three
having compulsory testing.
With work going on and planned
for the future, Oregon is making
progress toward elimination of this
disease. This would add not only
to the profits of dairy breeding and
production in the state but likewise
to Oregon's reputation as one of the
greatest though one of the youngest
dairy states of the union.
The prospect for $20 bonus on a
carlot of hogs is another incentive
to dairymen raising bogs to carry en I
