Test and Market Weight
of Wheat Are Different

Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
11 3. Oct S. The difference between the
test and the market weight of wheat is
one of the common misuiKlerstanotngs
in the grain business, says IV K. Hys
lop. head of farm crops at O. A. C.
"The teat weight is used only to de
termine quality, or grade," says Pro
fessor Hyslop. "A bushel Is 60 pounds
In Oregon, and If the grains are plump
and of good Quality a measured bushel
will weigh 0 or more pounds. If
shriveled the wheat in a measured
bushel may not weigh more than 56
pounds, or if badly pinched as low as
44 pounds.
But. this does not make the selling
weight which Is 60 pounds regardless
of how many pounds the wheat weighs
to the bushel. The selling weight re
mains the same for all wheat but the
test weight varies with the quality,
which determines its grade and price.
The test weight is prescribed by the
bureau of markets, federal department
of agriculture, and to be fair must be
made exactly as prescribed.
"Light weight wheat 64 or 56 Hounds
per bushel, is not so desirable for mill
ing as similar wheat having a test
weight of 60 pounds. The heavier
wheat usually Is more plump and yields
more flour.
"Mills occasionally pay more for
pinched wheat than plump, as it has a
higher gluten content and is needed to
strengthen the flour output. Hut the
tendency In many cases has been to
pay more for the soft starchy wheat
that could be blended with the pinched
wheat to weaken the gluten content."
proved Forty-fold and Bluestem, the
harvest of 1921 should show not les
than 15.000 acres of certified seed of
gocd strong vitality in Morrow county.
that the average bushel of wheat as
sold on the markets of Morrow county
stands a discount for mixture and oth
er deficiency due to mixture amounting
to approximately 5 cents per bushel.
Some dealers place it as -high as (.5
cents.
The fact that the majority of the
wheat la sold on sample does not alter
the fact that the purchaser considers
the value of the wheat from the grad
ing standpoint at the regular govern
ment grade apply In resales and export
trade.
The wheat crop of Morrow oounty
this year Is from 1,600.000 to 1,750.000
bushels and this loss is no small Item
for the county as a whole it amounts
to nearly three times the money avail
able for county road construction each
year. To the man who has 5000 bush
els to sell it means a loss of $250 dol
lars a very tidy sum these hard times
Kverybody knows that carefully se
lected seed of standard variety, test
and of good vitality will produce a
heavier yield than seed that has degen
erated through foul mixtures and im
proper aelectlons from year to year.
The amount of this difference Is difficult
to estimate because of the variety of
conditions but If It were only one bush
el per acre, what would that mean to
the average farmer? And from the
standpoint of the county as a whole It
would mean not less than 1200,000 per
year. ,
Last year there were In Morrow
county not to exceed 600 acres of grain
of standard variety test. This year the
Farm Bureau has examined andrertl
fled over 6000 acres and from Informa
tion available it Is believed that not
less than 7600 acres of good seed were
grown in the county. This increase is
largely due to the shipment of Turkey
and Hybrid last season.

NOTICE.
The county court of Morrow County
calls attention of the public to the fact
that at its September meeting, in com
pl'ance with the wishes of a represen
tative number of road districts within
the county, assembled in the court room
at that time and for that purpose, did
redistrict the County in order to make
the road districts smaller ' and more
suitable to the residents of the var
ious districts.
A number of the districts are pe
titioning the court to call a special
road meeting In the district in order
that the people of the district may talk
over the matter of the road situation
of the district and vote on a special
road tax for the Improvement of spec
ial places in the district that may es
pecially require It.
The present regular district money,
which Is a 24 mill tax, the same as it
was before the war, Is insufficient to
take care of the district needs and a
small special tax appears to be the best
solution of the problem. Blanks for
the petition may be had by applying to
the county roarimaster or the county
clerk. Such petition the law requires.
Shall be signed by three or more free
holders of the district and presented
to the county court not later than its
regular November meeting.

County Judge.
