CAYUGA SOYBEAN 
A HOME-GROWN, HIGH-OIL, HIGH-PROTEIN CONCENTRATE 
The college of Agriculture at Ithaca, N. Y., in its effort to help farmers solve their protein 
problem, has developed the new Cayuga Soybean, which ripens in New York State. This bean 
contains about 35% protein and 17% fat and allows you to grow rather than purchase your high 
concentrated feeds which are so expensive. The beans yield well, running around 25 bushels to 
the acre and sometimes as high as 35-40. This may not seem like a very good yield until one con¬ 
siders the fact that 20 bushels of ground soybeans are equivalent in protein to 118 bushels of oats. 
Habit of Growth 
These beans can be sown like oats or planted in narrow rows about June 1st. If few stones 
are present, harrow the ground with a spike tooth harrow after the beans are about 2-3 inches 
high to kill the weeds. The Cayuga soybean is especially desirable because it has a very stiff 
straw, and beans do not shatter. It therefore can be cut any time after the leaves have dropped 
and stand in the shock until dry. The soybeans can then be threshed or ground, stalks and all, 
in the hammer mill. This latter method gives about a 20% ration. 
Rate of seeding—2 bu. per acre sown like oats or 1 bu. if put in 28 to 30 in rows 
Prices —$3.00 per bu.; \ bu. $1.60, bags free, f. o. b. Cortland, N. Y. 
It is necessary to innoculate. Price 25c per bu. size bottle. 
Soybeans For Hay 
Farmers who are short of hay because of drought or seeding failure have found that soybeans 
make a wonderful emergency hay crop. The soybeans are sown at the rate of 2\ bushels per acre 
after the 20th of May. They should be cut when the pods are about one-third full. The Manchu 
variety is recommended.
