Breeding to Improve the soybean is only beginning, but the chances aye bright, says W. J. Morse of the united States Department of Agri culture. New varieties are needed, even though the department and the states have already imported more than 10,000 lots of seed. Soybeans are particular in their local requirements, are more vari able than many plants, and are grown for a variety of purposes. A good forage variety for one area may not do at all well elsewhere. A good forage bean may not be a good milling bean, or be useful as a vegetable. Some growers want soybeans for forage; others for oil and meal processing; still others as vege tables. The result is that each local area in the soybean regions needs a soybean variety thet will do well in that particular place and for a definite purpose. Such an area may even need two or three varieties— one for forage, one for high oil or protein content for the mills, and a third for the table. The soybean is a self-fertilized plant. Artificial crossing is diffi cult and tedious, but it can be done. COOL SUMMER TRAVEL BUS ★ No d u st — no d rafts. Cool, clean air com pletely cL aszed ev e r y 3 m in u tée. HERM ISTON DRUG CO.
