5. These bills of lading and expense bills must be cancelled so as to prevent their use a second time. 6. The agent at milling point must keep a ledger account with the mill, which should show the receipts of wheat or corn, and the shipments of each kind of milled product made thereunder. 7. Waybills for the product from milling points must show the original point of shipment of the wheat or corn from which it is milled and the number and date of the waybill upon which it is received at the mill. 8. When the conditions of these rules have been fully complied with the agent at the milling point is authorized to waybill shipments of milled products at the difference between the rate on the wheat or corn into the mill and at the rate on the milled product for a distance equal to the sum of the distance from point of origin of the grain (from which milled) to the milling point, plus the distance from the milling point to destination of the milled product, as provided for in local tariff of all railroads. For example, the agent at Rock Hill, S. C., has a shipment of flour in sacks milled from wheat received from a point 75 miles distant from Rock Hill, to be reshipped to a point 50 miles from Rock Hill. In this instance the total haul is 125 miles. The rate on the wheat into the mill is 12 cents, the rate on the flour in sacks (Class C) for a distance of 125 miles is 17 cents. Shipments should be waybilled from Rock Hill to. destination at the difference between the rate on the grain into the mill and the rate on flour in sacks for the combined distance, or 125 miles, which is 5 cents per hundred pounds. GRAIN-CLEANING IN TRANSIT. The rate on all movement of grains in South Carolina where grain in transit is stopped at intermediate points for cleaning and grading purposes shall be the present through rate from point of origin to destination, plus 20 per cent. for each and every intermediate stop where cleaning and grading is to be done. Shrinkage on all reshipments from cleaning points will be allowed. All shipments stopped at intermediate points for cleaning and grading shall not be in transit exceeding six months. The above rate is intended for an emergency rate. Grain delivered at local markets for cleaning purposes cannot be substituted for grain in transit which is held at that point for cleaning PART III.
