| EDIBLE SOY BEAN 
BANSE]I _ (90. days.), In recent years many 
varieties of edible Soy Beans have 
been imported from the Orient by the Department 
of Agriculture, and detailed study on their adap- 
tion and also market and growing conditions have 
been made. As a result of these tests, several prom- 
ising varieties have been obtained, and the one 
which seems the most suitable for the north is 
Bansei. Bansei has a plant that is erect and of 
medium height, very prolific, well adapted to a 
short growing season. The beans when ripe are 
glossy yellow, elliptical of mild and pleasing flavor. 
All Soy Beans of the edible variety are green when 
in the growing condition. They are highly resistant 
to discase and insect pests. Eating qualities are 
excellent when cooked to serve similar to Lima 
Beans. Roasted Soy Beans are very good and these 
are prepared by soaking the dried beans overnight, 
boil for one hour in salted water. Spread in shal- 
low pan and roast in moderate oven, 350 degrees 
Fahrenheit, until brown. Sprinkle with salt while 
_ prepaid.
