Grain from Western Canadian farms arrives at terminal elevators with about two percent foreign matter. Refuse screenings include weed seeds dust and chaff, weighing 15 to 45 pounds per bushel. Since 1920 the Feeding Stuffs Act restricts use in feeding, but as fuel they are burned in power plants. Refuse screenings yield about 5,900 BTU per pound versus 13,500 BTU for Pocahontas coal, giving a 2.3 to 1 ratio and potential cost savings when firing steam plants.
