Book Description
Excerpt from Removing Smut From Pacific Northwest Wheat by Washing The effect Of the washing process upon the weight of merchantable wheat, figured from the Official receiving Weights and grades and the weight after washing, was determined as follows: The scale weight of the original smutty wheat which also contained some dockage as received at the elevator was pounds, against which there was an average assessed foul dockage Of per cent. Deducting pounds, the computed assessed dockage, leaves pounds Of dockage-free wheat, with smut dockage. Deducting the average smut dockage Of per cent, or pounds, assessed against the smutty wheat, leaves pounds, the computed weight Of merchantable wheat received at the elevator. After being washed the wheat was free of both assessable dock age and assessable smut dockage and weighed pounds, which was all merchantable wheat; hence the gain in weight of the merchantable wheat, due to washing, was pounds, which is a gain of per Cent Of the weight Of the original merchantable wheat as received at the elevator.
