A pocket of clean rice is 100 pounds. 452. Yield. — Ordinarily the yield of rice grain ranges from 20 to 40 bushels to the acre.

In exceptional cases more than ...100 bushels have been secured from one acre. PREPARATION AND USES OF RICE 453. Cleaned rice. — In order to secure cleaned rice the "paddy" or rough rice must be put through a com- plicated milling process. Modern rice mills comprise a vast network of complicated machinery. In going through these mills the rice is subjected to the following process in the order given: (1) Screening, which removes trash and foreign parti- cles. (2) Removal of the hull by "rapidly revolving 'milling stones' set about two-thirds of the length of a rice grain apart." (3) Separation of the light chaff and the whole and bro- ken kernels by passing the mixed product over horizontal screens and blowers.
