Harye.tIn. Soy Beans.

One of the great objections to soy
beans has been the lack of an easy
means of harvesting. The bean pods
grow so close to the ground that no
sort of grain harvester can be EN-
pIoyed in harvesting them without
losing some BEANS If hogs or sheep
can be put on 10 CLEAN the field a
self-rake may be used very s-tisfac-
torily. A mower will shatter the beans
and crush them into the earth, and
does not give satisfaction The stems
being hard, any knife cutter should
run slightly below the surface of the
ground to cut them satisfactorily.
When more than ten or fifteen acres
are to be handled it will pay to use a
bean harvester. After the beans are
cut they can be raked with a hay
rake and should be put in small
shocks until dry, when they can be
thrashed or stacked. Thrashing is
done with an ordinary separator, using
al blank concayes, and running as
slowly as the machine viii permit and

Every once in a while we notice re-
ports of what certain men have done
on so-called abandoned farms Often
the returns from the land are quite
phenomenal. The explanation is that
some man with both brains and money
has taken hold and put into practice
business methods Had these been
put into operation from the first there
would have been no abandoned farms
Men that have investigated the condi-
mons in localities where such lands
have been thrown out of cultivation
have found that the lands had become

without putting back the manure
necessary to keep up the fertility.

Horticultural Observations.

factory is being constructed in
California for the making of what is
to be called concentrated fruit" 1t
is said that over-ripe apples ana small
ripe apples are to be used and made
marketable in that way. If it proves
a success it will help at least to settle
the question Of disposal of unmarked
able fruit.
An English horticulturist, speaking
on what to do with inferior apples and
how to dispose Of them without injur-
ing the market. says that the best way
is not to grow them The answer is
one of those sayings that attempts to
answer a question without answering
it. We do not intend to grow inferior
apples, but I'VE do grow them in spite
of ourselves, and the problem arises
of how to dispose of them without
loss Feeding to cattle is one way sug-
gested, as apples have the same feed
ing value as turnips. This is good
way to get rid of them if getting rid
of them is the principal object.
A man in South Haven, Michigan.
has brought suit for 5000 against an
other man for damage done to his
peaches by bees belonging to the man
sued The first man CLAIMS that his
neighbor keeps 60 hives of bees and
that they come into his peach orchard
and bite through his peaches, thus
rendering them unmarketable- It is
the old question OF whether or not bees
can fnjure peaches. The question has
generally been answered in the mega
tive.

MISS CAST CREDITED WITH A WORLDS
ROAD RECORD FOR TWO THOUSAND
MILES-TO START TO-DAY FOR
FIVE HUNDRED MILES MORE

Shortly after o'clock last night Miss Margaret
Cast finished her ride OF 1000 miles on bicycle
down at Valley Stream, Long Island She has been
paced throughout in this useless and brutal con-
test by friends and members Of the Century Road
Club Of America. all Of whom assert that she has
covered the distance she is credited with II so
Miss Cast has broken all road records for that
distance, made by either man or woman Miss
Cast finished her ride 80 last night the time
consumed in making the 1000 miles being DO hours
and So minutes William H Brown, OF BROOKLYN
who held the worlds record for the distance until
last night made the 1000 miles last autumn in 225
hours and 6I2 minutes. According to these figures
Miss Cast has broken the record by just hours
and 1 minute
The scene at the conclusion Of the ride at Valley
Stream last night was lively one The friends OF
the plucky little woman had made preparations TO
celebrate the performance. When Miss Cast rode
into Valley Stream she welcomed by several
hundred people who Cheered her for many minutes
Then immense bonfires started fireworks siz-
zed through the air. and the tired but thoroughly
happy woman was LED into the little hotel and put
10 bed An hour later 1t said that she was
sleeping soundly. Before going to sleep Miss CAST
said that If she woke up this morning feeling as
well as she did last night she would start out at
o'clock TO ride another 500 miles

The performance, If genuine, is the most remark
able in the history of long distance riding in this
or any other country. Three-f ourths of the long
distance was pedalled either in the rain or over
roads deep In mud. The weather conditions were
even more unfavorable than those encountered by
Brown When he made the record last year. The
ola records made by Mrs Brush Miss Lindsay and
other women riders pale into insignfcance when
compared with the performance just finished by
Miss Cast There are people who think that
several other ambitious women will Immediately
start In to try 10 establish a better record. IL

in that part Of Long Island will rise up in their
might and request the police 10 interfere They do
not pegrudge the notoriety achieved by Miss Cast
