First it is important to know how to use the scale for prices. The scale is the
E8 @, q, l" k/ l2 {same for grain, for all grains and stocks. The scale on the left side of the( s, }% h) O0 p- f* `
calculator runs from 0 to 144. If the price is above 144, you subtract 144! E5 I" x4 c, N( m
and then place the scale in the correct position.; k+ y" @( V4 s6 }2 R" A
EXAMPLE: When May Beans is selling above 288, this is 2 squares of 144

The scale on each side running from 0 up to 4320 is for Cotton, Eggs and1 s8 Q, Z( _0 I6 O8 e7 d- b/ k
