Excerpt from An Electric Meter for Rapid Measurement of Moisture in Cottonseed The process of applying the U. S. Official standards for grading cottonseed is too elaborate, expensive and time-consuming to be practical in grading small lots of cottonseed. Therefore growers usually sell to ginners at average prices without regard to difference in quality of indi vidual lots. Such a marketing practice involves an element of risk to ginners as well as inequities to growers. In View of this situation, there is need for a system of grading that would be practical for application to sales by farmers.
