Experiments With Soy Beans for
Seed for Fodder and Silage

Orono, Me-, May 27.-At two differ
ent times the Maine Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station has grown the soy
beam The following summary of the
results obtained in the different trials
is taken from Bulletin 224 of the Sta
ton.
Soy beans can be grown in parts
of Maine where corn thrives.
Where early corn natures, the early
white soy bean will usually mature.
Where Sanford corn ears, the early
medium soy bean will form pods.
Soy bean can be grown with less
nitrogen than corn.
In order to grow the soy bean most
economically, the soil should be inocu-
lated with the organism that forms
root tubercles.
The soil should be prepared as for
corn or beans and should be free from
Jumps and clods.
Fertilizers carrying phosphoric acid
and potash are essential and on good
land no nitrogen is needed IL the soil
is inoculated for root tubercles.
Sown in drills IS inches apart, about
pecks of seed is needed per acre.
If drilled with grain drill or sown
broadcast more seed, perhaps bushel
per acre, will be needed.
Soy beans can be grown with corn,
mixing the seed at the rate of 10
quarts of corn and of soy beans.
Thus seeded the drills should be about
feet apart.

Summer Term at the
University of Maine

Orono. Me-, May 27.-(SpeciaD.-In
response to several inquiries concern
ing the Stature of the work in home
economics to be given during the sum-
mer term at the University of Maine,
the following statement is made by
Miss Randall, who is in charge of the
work:
Three courses In home economics are
offered in the summer term. These are
offered for those who have already
had some work in home economics, or
for home makers who wish to know
more of this subject, but who do not
have the time to take a longer course.
No. 2 corresponds to the second
semester's work in elementary cook
cry 1t includes laboratory practice
with breads, cakes, eggs, salads,
frozen desserts and canning.
No. is a course in dietetics, which
includes a study of the proper diet
for the healthy as well as for the sick
and convalescent. Serving in the sick
room is considered. with special en-
phasis placed upon the attractive
serving of food for the convaiescent.
No. is course in sewing which
will be arranged to meet the needs of
the students.

course it is to be remembered that
Congress has been in session during
all of the present administration and
thus far it has not been practical for
the President to be away from Wash
ington for any length of time.
Republicans have lost a stalwart fig-
ure In the Senate with the death OF
William o. Bradley of Kentucky He
was a staunch partisan but man OF
exceptional strength of character. His
term would have expired next March
and the campaign had already begun
for his successor. He had the unique
distinction of having been elected to
the Senate by the votes of Demo-
cratic legislature. There was such
hatred among the Democrats of ex-
Gov. Beckham, who had the primary
nomination, that a handful of them
would not support the nominee but
went to Bradley. thus ensuring his
election. He was always strong
with Kentucky Democrats, fact that
enabled him in 1887 to reduce a
Democratic majority of 1900 in the
previous campaign to 1900. He was
| the Republican candidate for governor
! that year and again in 1895 when he
carried the state by almost 5000 votes.
Bradley had stirring time as gov
ernor of Kentucky and was mentioned
in the public prints throughout the
country, perhaps, as much as the gov
ernor of any other state at the time
He held many offices and was highly
respected by his home people. There
will hardly be any other Republican
leader in Kentucky of ability and
prominence to fill his place. Parti-
sanship in Kentucky always runs high
and there is much spirit in the politi-
cal contests. Senator Bradley main
tanned himself easily before such a
constituency and was recognized by
Republicans the country over as the
leader of his party in the state;
There will be a. mighty contest for
his seat. Gov. James B. McCreary.
himself an Ex-senator, will probably
have the nomination of Democrat
| to serve ad interim, until there has
been a popular election. 1t might be
supposed that such a stalwart Demo-
cratic state as Kentucky would easily
elect Democratic senator under
Democratic administrator but the au-
thoritative word is that there is fair
prospect of some other Republican be-
ing elected in November. The old
Democratic party in Kentucky is get
ting into very bad shape. 1t is torn
with dissensions. Furthermore the
prohibition question is rising to plague
the Democrats there tremendously
and probably will enter into the con-
test for United States senator. Re-
pubiicans appear to have the best OF
the situation in that regard.
The situation in Kentucky. however,
is only an indication of what appears
to be taking place in many other
states. The Democracy, which was
so triumphant only two years ago. has
apparently been going to pieces rapid
iy. snarling and quarreling and losing
ell spirit for another winning con-
| test If Democrats cannot hold Ken
lucky next autumn, they certainly can
| not hold a half dozen northern states
and the country would seem to be due
| for a landslide the other way.

When sown in drills they should be
cultivated the same as common beans.
In case of narrow spaces between
drills, a hand wheel hoe does the work
rapidly and well.
|, 1t is doubtful il it would be profit
able to grow soy beans for seed in
Maine. The varieties that will ripen
seed in this climate make small vine
growth.
The crop is best adapted for feeding
green or for silage.
The crop can be harvested by hand
or machine For silage a grain reaper
and binder leaves it convenient for
handling and for the silage cutter.
A yield of tons of green crop Is
an average in average seasons on av-
erage soils
Eight tons of soy bean fodder car
ries about the same amount of pro-
tein as Il tons of corn in milk ready
for the silo, but it carries only a lit
tie more dry matter than 8 tons of
corn.
If grown with corn, it can be cut
with the corn, by hand or a corn har-
vester.
When grown by itself for silage, 1t
is best mixed with corn at time of
cutting into the silo. About parts
corn to parts beans is very good
proportion.
Less protein (the most expensive
part of commercial feeding stuffs)
need be fed with soy bean and corn
silage than with corn silage alone,

An Easy Way to Get
Fat and Be Strong

The trouble with most thin folks
who wish to gain weight is that they
insist on drugging their stomach or
stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing
on useless flesh creams" or following
some foolish physical culture stunt
while the real cause of thinness goes
untouched. You cannot get fat until
your digestive tract assimilates the
food you eat.
Thanks to a remarkable new sefen-
tific discovery, it is now possible to
combine into simple form the very ele-
ments needed by the digestive organs
to help them convert food into rich,
fat-laden blood. This master stroke
of modern chemistry is called Sargol
and has been termed the greatest
of flesh builders Sargol aims through
its re-generative, re-constructive pow
ers to coax the stomach and intestines
to literally soak up the fattening ele-
ments Of your food and pass them
into the blood, where they are carried
to every starved, broken-down cell
and tissue of your body. You can
readily picture the result when this
amazing transformation has taken
place and you notice how your cheeks
fill out, hollows about your neck,
shoulders and bust disappear and you
take ON from 10 to 20 pounds of solid,
healthy flesh. Sargol is absolutely
harmless, inexpensive, efficient. Bow
ditch Webster Co. and other leading
druggists of Augusta and vicinity
have it and will refund your money
If you are not satisfied, as per the
guarantee found in every package.
Caution Sargol has given
excellent results in overcoming ner-
vous dyspepsia and general stomach
troubles it should not be taken by
those who do not wish to gain ten
pounds or more.-AdY.

homes in this country. but this season
all such plans have been held in abey-
ance. Many members of the corps
either intend to stay in Washington

his wife had planned to pass the sum-

Washington, Sept. IS President
Wilson sees little prospect of peace in
Europe reflected in the official ex-
changes which American ambassadors
have been conducting with Great Bri-
tain, Germany, France and Russia.
This was learned tonay at the White
House. Until something more tan
eible and more definite in the way
of overtures comes from the belliger-
ents, the president feels that his hands
are virtually tied.
To undertake to elicit terms from
Great Britain, France and Russia, as
Germany suggested, would place the
president in a delicate position, in
view of what Sir Edward Grey has
told Ambassador Page The British
foreign secretary recently took the po-
sition that the war had been forced
on Great Britain; that the neutrality
Of Belgium had been disregarded and
that it would be necessary to crush
German militarisnl before. the allies
could feel safe against new attacks
and before treaty of peace could be
worth "scrap of paper"
The president, it is understood,
feels that in view of the neutral po-
sition of the American government it
would be unwise to press either side
to make overtures to the other. He
hopes, however, that as the war pro-
crosses, one side or the other will
make known it's terms in some form,
so that the American government may
act.

Germany is Resolute

New York, Sept 1s-Count Won
Bernstorff. the German ambassador to
the United states, discussed today the
possibility of peace in Europe and the
efforts of President Wilson to bring
it about
Talk Of peace was started by the
people of the United States" said the
ambassador. "Its continuance after
the answer sent by the German gov
ermnnet through Ambassador Gerard,
depends on the attitude of the allies.
GAS long as they talk of crushing
end dismembering Germany, there is
absolutely no possibility of peace. I
am quoting Premier Asquith and 9TH
er Englishmen. l have no idea that
Germany could be crushed or dismem-
bered.
mo lasting peace would be possible
if a square inch of German territory
was given up. That applies to the
colonies of Germany as well as the
German empire itseff. 1t is perfectly
clear that if any territory was taken
Germany would again arm to the
teeth"
Count Won Bernstorff was asked II
1t was possible that peace in Europe
might lead to general disarmament
"That," he replied, would depend
lon the sentiment with which peace
was entered into by the allies.
Count Won Bernstorff said that un
doubtedly the German emperor hat
been informed of the talk but not Min
lister Gerard and the imperial Ger
man chancellor, and that the answer
given had been first submitted to the
emperor. He added that it should bs
emphatically understood that from {
military viewpoint Germany was no
seeking peace at this time, any NOR
