USES FOR SOY BEANS
Soy beans seem to have a great
many uses. Among the differ­
ent uses listed by the depart­
ment of agriculture are the
grinding of meal and feeding,
which has the double purpose
of furnishing feed for cattle and
making a manure that has espe­
cially strong fertilizing value;
milk may be made from them,
as is done in Japan, and a
vegetable cheese made from the
milk ; they may also be made
Into a flour for the manufac­
ture of crackers, breads, etc.,
that are of value In cases Of dia-
betes, and a good oil may be
extracted from them.
AVOID FEEDING MOLDY GRAIN
Cause of Mortality Among Hens ot
Nebraska Farmer—Livers of Fowls
Found to Be Enlarged.
Feeding moldy grain to hens is not
a paying proposition, according to the
experience of an Eastern Nebraska
farmer, who recently asked the uni­
versity poultry department of the Ne­
braska agricultural college what was
causing his hens to die.
Upon visiting the farmer’s poultry
yard, a member of the poultry depart-
tuent found 75 hens had died during
the summer. The livers of dead hens
were found to be enlarged, fowls were
overfat, and the yard in which they
were kept was bare. The owner stated
that when he shut up his birds, they
did not die, but that when he turned
them. out, he would lose one or two
hens each day.
Moldy grain .was found to be the
source of his trouble. His wheat was
grown on low land that was submerged
during heavy rains at threshing time,
and the grain molded rapidly when put
into the bin. Also; as the corn crib had
no door, sun and rain could beat In
freely, and the corn looked dry and
bright on top, but was moldy under­
neath. Consequently his flock received
nothing but moldy grains, with the re­
sult that many died.
LOOK OVER FARM MACHINERY
Implements Should Be Given Thorough
Overhauling Before Spring Work
Has Commenced.
Farm machinery should receive a
thorough overhauling before spring
work begins. If implements are not
taken out of the shed or from under
the shade trees until they are needed
they may not be In running order. See
if there are any broken parts or worn
parts which need replacing. Repairs
cannot be had Inside of a few days or
sometimes weeks. With some crops, a
week of delay often means the differ­
ence between profit and loss.
Machinery which has stood in the
fence corner since last used will need
generous oiling to free It of rust. It
will be a good plan to run machines a
little to see if they are in shape and to
get them limbered up before time to
use them.
Plows should be scoured, harness
should be repaired, clevises, laprings,
