Soy Beans 
In Place of Manure 
Grow Soil-improving Plants; plow or 
dig them under 
The added organic material will retain 
plant-food and hold moisture. Do not allow 
even the smallest area to remain idle, but 
harrow or rake under General Garden Fertil- 
izer, 1 ton per acre or 50 pounds to each 1000 
square feet, and sow one or more of the under- 
noted crops, appropriate to the season. It is 
desirable to sow combinations of them; when 
mixed together the stated quantities may be 
reduced in proportion.

Varieties marked * are legumes, and are of 
additional value because of the nitrates which are 
added to the soil by colonies of bacteria in nodules 
on the roots of leguminous plants. Use these, and 
you need not buy nitrogenous fertilizers. Treat 
seeds marked * with Legume-Aid before sowing to 
insure a sufficiency of these bacteria. :

SOY BEANS 
The Crop of Many Uses 
Mammoth Yellow and Wilson are slow- 
growing, tall and bushy sorts which do not 
mature Beans tn northern latitudes, but are 
the best to use for green cattle and hog feed, 
for silage or excellent hay; also for plowing 
under for soil-improvement. 
For these purposes, sow 3 to 4 pecks per 
acre in close rows, or 6 to 8 pecks if drilled 
solid or broadcast. When grown with corn, 
allow 1 peck with 15 pounds of corn to the 
acre. 
Earlyana grows quickly enough to mature 
its Beans in the North. They are excellent for 
mixing with corn and other materials for high 
protein dairy and stock feed. From these 
Beans, the valuable Soy-bean oil is expressed; 
they also supply the foods, plastics, paints, 
varnishes and soaps with which we are becom- 
ing increasingly familiar. For the production 
of Beans, use 2 to 3 pecks per acre, drilled into 
20 to 30-inch rows. The culture of Soy Beans 
makes the land more productive for a suc- 
ceeding crop.
