SOY BEANS and cow PEAS


Every farmer who feeds live stock
should become acquainted with the SOY
bean and the COW pea, as often one or the
Nigh be used to good advantage. Both
are leguminous plants rich in protein and
make excellent crops for experimenting
carbonaceous feeding stuffs, such as corn.
Being annual plants of rapid growth, they
nt easily into a variety of rotations and
may often be used as emergency crops
where few other things would fit in.
Cses-Both crops are excellent soil i'm
provcrs, having especially beneficial effects
upon the physical condition OF soils that
are inclined to be heavy, making them
loose and mellow. Like other legumes,
when inoculated with their particular
nitrogen gathering bacteria, they draw
upon the free nitrogen of the atmosphere
Tor their own requirements and also store
up considerable quantities III their roots,
and when these decay this stored up nitro
gen becomes available to succeeding crops.
They are therefore excellent to precede
such crops as corn, which requires large
quantities of nitrogen for its proper devcl-
oprnent. Being such strong and rapid
growers and having such beneficial effects
upon the soil, they may often be used to
good advantage as cover crops sown i'll
July after small grain crops are harvested.
With sufficient moisture to start them
properly they may be used in this way as
idLt as tHe ITsI OF August ana may DC
depended upon to gather "A lot of nitrogen
and make "A good growth of material for
blowing under, as green manure, in the
autumn or following spring.
For stock feeding purposes. the SOY bean
and COW pea may be used In Il variety Of
ways. Most varieties of COW peas and the
ranker growing soy beans, such as the
Medium Green and Medium Early YeL-
'ow,' make excellent crops for feeding
green, or making into hay. For these
purposes, however. the COW pea is gcner-
ally TO be preferred on account of it's fiEer
stems and, usually, larger growth. When
sown before the first of June on good soil,
be expected. When well cured, COW pea
hay is of excellent quality and possesses
a food value fully one-half higher than red
clover hay. AS a grain crop 1t seems that,
for northern and central Indiana, at least,
the soy bean will generally be the more
profitable, both because of the higher food
value of the beans and because of the
greater tendency to produce seed. On fair
corn ground, from twenty to thirty bush
els OF grain per acre should be produced.
The beans are rich in protein and fat or
oil and are excellent for mixing in the
ration with corn, especially in hog feeding.

nutrients In 100 pounds of soy bean and
COW pea grain and hay in comparison with

A bulletin from the dairy department
OF Canada gives an account OF some
experiments made to determine the
factors that produce a butter with more
or less moisture.
While we cannot ind the space for
the record of the experiments. we give
the statement regarding quality from
the moisture standpoint.
The bulletin says in part: Preserva-
tives do not dissolve In butterfat; me-
chanically mixed with pure butter fat
they could not act In keeping the but
ter. II is these saline materials in
solution (brfne) that preserve 1t. The
keeping qualities OF butter, therefore.
are In a certain sense dependent upon
the water content. There is also n re-
~lationship between body or texture
presented to show the exact proportion
or water that should be present for the
best results. but of this fact there is
ample evidence thai an excessive
amount OF water. no matter how we'll
Incorporated, tends to destroy this de-
sirable property. n this Is especially
true when obtained by means of a high
churning or washing temperature.
Quality" In butter includes flavor,
BODY or texture, appearance and SIM
iiar attributes; 1t Is a comprehensive
term and may be said to result from
several causes. beginning with the ma
ture OF the feed the COW receives and
ending with the various details of fer
mentation of the cream and manufac-
ture OF the butter. In controlling the
water content we have at least one
means of controlling the quality of but
ter, and this. apart from keeping quail
lily, a distinct property from quality
as usually understood. and one which
undoubtedly is injuriously affected by
a nigh water content. For quality as
judged Immediately after the butter is
made. much depends upon the thorough
incorporation OF the water and the tenn
peratures at which 1t is Incorporated.
but 1t Is very doubtful II there is not
IN all cases a distinct falling off IA per
cent. no matter how skillfully the but
ter is made.
Though water is a necessary and
legitimate constituent of butter, there
Is no recognized normal water content.

Indian Famine FIGURES.

Famine history in India is not call

Of people died together in the streets;
country roads were like a vast, unpre-

soWn early in the season. AS n general
rule. the best time to SOW is after corn
planting Is finished and the soil has be-
come thoroughly warm. The seed should
be deeply covered. 1t should be sown in
drills and the crops cultivated like corn
until the soy bean blooms and the COW pea
begins to vine. For grain production drill
ing and cu1tivating are always best, but
for hay production fair results may he Sc
cured from broadcast seeding on ground
free of weeds. Tho rows should be 81
inches apart for the soy bean and "a inches
apart for the COW pea. and both seeded
AT the rate of 70 to y pounds of seed per
acre for the medium sized varieties. Seed
ing may be done with a wheat drill set
at two bushels per acre on the wheat
scale. - 80, me holes not needed

to seed production.
Som" soils need to he inoculated with
the proper bacteria for one or both crops
before satisfactory results can be secured.
This need can only be determined by trial
and by examination of the roots for tho

CLUB FOR BETTER
FIRE PROTECTION

The general meeting of the Com.
mercial club LAST evening was well at
tended and several subjects OF import.
ance TO the city We're brought az tur
discussion.
Probably the most important matter
to come before the meeting was the
subject of better fire protection which
was introduced by E. D. Ferguson
Mr.. Ferguson presented a startling
array Of facts concerning the lack of
high pressure pipes in the Mob Hill
residence district and stated that it
would be almosG an impossibility 10
extinguish fire of any size there with
the present low pressure pipes. He
stared that the city could at aD ex-
pense Of six or seven thousand DOL ars.
replace these pipes with steel or high
pressure wooden pipe and reduce the
fire risk one half. he also recommend
ed the establishing of one or two bose
houses on ihe hill He slater that
with the only hose in town in the
house on Mission street, fire would
practically destroy a house almost
anywhere on the hill before a stream
of water could be turned on the
flames.
His speech was very favorahly re-
ceived and president Browne appoint
ed committee consisting OF Mr.. Fer
guson, Z. NJ. Schetlv and DR. Gamer

celning the needs of the water depart
ment and the cost of the proposed
changes and to make such recommend

SECOND PARTY OF
ENGINEERS IN FIELD
Will Begin at Once Upon Work of
Setting Grade Stakes on New
Branch Line Between We
natchee and Oroviiie

Prospects of beginning work on the
Great Northern branch line from We
natchee TO Oroville are looking very
bright. Another party OF l2 engi-
neeIs arrived III the city today in
charge Of Mr.. Tracy and will take the
boat for Pateros tomorrow morning \
large supply of groceries and camping
material was shipped up on the boat
this morning ana arrangements are
being made for Supplying the new
camp with meat.
One party of engineers has been at
work Oh the survey of the lire foI sew
ss Brewster. The new party u ill es.
tablisn headquarters at Patalos and it
is thought, will immediately begin the
woi Z of setting the grade stakes.
Another event winch woald go to
disapprove the statements made by
many, that the Great Northern is
merely surveying up the Columbia IN
order to keep its engineers out OF mis-
chief, is the arrival of party of Great
Northern officials consisting of c. E..
Stone, general passenger agent, Ben
Campbell, fourth vice president and
Louis Hill in Wenatchee and their
departure up the river over the prop
osed route of the new road. Tie party
will leave the boat at Brewster and
will go overland by means of an au-
tomobiie which they brought with
them to Oroyille.
After a short stay at Oroville they
will ret Urn 10 WeDatchee By the same
route token going up. The trip of
these officials Is not taken to acquire q
general knowledge of rbe couDtry as
each one of them has been all through
the Okanogan during the past year and
detailed knowledge of the country and
les resources W0uld Oe or no Earflcu-
lar benefit in general way. Hence i1 is
believed by every one familiar with
the trend of events during the past few
months in the QBanogan that the trip
is taken for the specific purpose of
securing data on the new line prepar-
atory to the beginning OF construct
ion at once.
A prominent real estate man of Seattle
who was in the city few days ago,
stated to World reporter that he
had definite assurances from high
official of tie Great No.tLern that
work would begin on the branch from
here to Oroville this Summer and
would be pushed through with all pos.
sible speed. He stated that two con-
struction gangs would be put to work
and the road woula be built north

SlIOO AN ACRE FOR
WENATCHEE ORCHARD
W. E. Stevens Place Of Six and One.
Half Acres Sells for $7.15O--
Highest Price Ever Paid for
Orchard in the Valley

The record price for Wenatchee val.
lev fruit lands, so far as known, was
established Sauurdag when Z. V. Mar
tin, acting as agent for ". ). Stevens,
sold 612 acres of orchard to G. NJ
Coleman of pasco for $3.50 or at the
rate of $l10O per acre. The land Is
situated northwest Of the city. l-2
mile from the White school house and
has no buildings upon it. This Is the
first piece of purely orchard land to
bring $1,000 or over per acre. a
number of tracrs with bearing orchart
aud buildings Oh them have sold for
$1,000 per acre, but wnen the cost Of
the imprOveuen Is deducted from
the selling price it falls considerably
below that of the Stevens place. The
trees on the tract are all good varieties
aud are said TO be in excellent con-
dition.
Previous to the sale t1 Mr.. Coleman
several men with adjoining tracts had
offered 81, 900 ali acre for this orchard .
MI. Coleman expects to make mis-
nome in Weuatohee and will move
his family here at an early date.
