The Rural World says in regard to
this legume, which is being raised
quite extensively, that it is "a crop that

his family, down to the poultry but

Having. as they do, large proportion
of albumiuoids or muscle making ele-
ments in their composition, they form
an excellent substitute for meat. Pur
suing the subject the Rural World
says:
but few farms are without some
land that is we'll adapted to this crop.
The soil best suited to it is a light,
sandy, well drained soil, not over rich,
at least in vegetable matter. Beans
will do f,irly well on land too poor for
many crops, and for this reason many
have thought that only poor land
should be used; but for paying crops
and for this reason many have thought
that only poor land should be used; but
for paying crops they demand fertile
land, though the fertility must be

are best.

When the farmers ofany community

that community will step in advance of

There is no immediate danger of the
United States becoming overcrowded,

ment has been the largest owner of

been sold and donated, and about l.
$50, 600. 900 acres remain unsold. As
