Excerpt from Factors to Be Considered in Locating, Planning, and Operating Country Elevators There has been a growing demand for information that will show how to determine the proper location, layout, and size of a country elevator and set forth the operating methods, equipment, and practices that would result in maximum efficiency. Such information is needed by people who desire to build new elevators as well as by operators who desire to make improvements in existing facilities. In order to provide the desired information, this survey of the facilities, equipment, and methods of operation of a representative number of country elevators in the State of Indiana was undertaken. Table 1 shows the capacity of the elevators chosen for detailed study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
