The vane, which may be a helical vane, may be provided with a lower surface angled downwardly and outwardly in a radial direction, or may be provided with one or more steps having a relatively steep sloped wall facing in a direction leading away from the direction of rotation of the agitator and a relatively shallow sloped wall facing in a direction leading toward the direction of rotation of the agitator, or both shapes.
