The Drying Question.
Tin? IiIr objection to the elevator
system has hppn tho ferr that rice
handled In Filch big bull; would ho
ci .nio nioist. ami musty, mid would
ferment. It Is believed by the Nodort
land people that no matter what con
dition Uio cereal is in when placed in
tho elevator, one passage through the
u'ryer will dry It. If not dry then,
however, it in heioved the falllns of
i he rico down the bis bin, a cup full
at, a time, will complete tue (trying
process. If tho cereal Is not dry
then, the bin in which it hub been
placed can be tapped from its funnel-
shaped bottom, conected with another
telescope chute and run through tii"
dryer a second time. This process
can lie kept tin indofirelely, rapidly,
and with but little Increased expense.
It is expected the elevator system
will cut down the cost of haudliuj;
rite about 111 cents per sack. The
hi.CKost savins In any one place will
be in I lie cost of Harks, H cents cadi.
'I here will also be saving, however, in
labor, in the tying and untying, load
iug mid unloadini; of sacks and tin
grading 'he cereal. it Is also ex
peeled much will be saved b kc'pin;
the rice drv. thereby cut tins out llti
loss from must and dampness.
