SOUPS IN PLACE OF MEAT
Recipe for Dish Which Is PaIatable
and Nutritious.

(By Geneva Conway, Division of Elk
tension, University of Tennessee.)
If desired, soups may be made with
out stock. They are then composed
OF a vegetable PURGE and water, or a
combination Of a vegetable PURGE and
white sauce. A PURGE is simply a
cooked vegetable pressed through a
sieve.
The vegetable PURGE, with white
sauce, is more generally used and
termed cream soup; for this use
equal parts of white sauce and PURGE.
Cream of Tomato Soup.
One pint milk, tablespoonfuls but
ter, 2 tablespoonful -four, teaspoon
full salt, 1 pint tomato PURGE.
Take a quart can of tomatoes, sea-
son with salt and pepper and onion or
parsley, and cook until thoroughly
heated. Press through a sieve all but
the seeds. Return to the fire and cook
until reduced one-half in bulk. Add
cream, butter and -four, and also hot
milk. Return to the fire until thick
While white sauce and tomato PURGE
are both hot, gradually add the PURGE
to the sauce.
We add the PURGE slowly, as it is
acid and may curdle the milk If added
too rapidly. Serve as soon as made.
This type of soup is served at lunch
or supper because 1t Is a heavy dish
and very nutritious. 1t may take the
place Of meat at supper. Everything
in It contains food value and in a con-
centrated form. It also forms a means
of using left over vegetables and milk.
Peas, potatoes, celery, lettuce, corn,
onion, beans, ETC., may be used in
stead of tomatoes.
This soup affords a palatable dish
for children and convalescing pa

WHEN TO HARVEST
SOY BEAN CROP
y
Varieties Are Not All Alike and
So Each Requires Special
Attention
LONG GROWERS YIELD MOST
When Working Soy Beans into a Rota-
ton Study the Variety to Be Used
Beans Supply Excellent Forage for
Hogs. I

(By J. c. McAmis, Division of Exten-
sion, University Of Tennessee.)
In planning a suitable rotation In
Guiding soy beans, it is important to
know the approximate length of sea-
son of the particular variety used.
The following is quoted from Bulle-
tin No 80, of the Tennessee Station:
There is not only a great difference
in the time between planting and ma
turity required by the different varie-
ties when planted at the same date,
but also a marked variation in the
length Of season required by any one
variety when planted at widely sep
arated dates"
The variation in length of season Of
a given variety takes place almost en-
tirely previous to Towering. The
length of time between Towering and
maturing seed is practically the same
regardless Of the date Of seeding.
The important factor to bear in
mind in the calculation of the approxi-
mate date of harvesting or hogging off
is that all varieties shorten their
length of season the later they are
planted. However, later paintings are
usually accompanied by decrease in
yield. 1t is also generally true that the
short season varieties produce less
than do the longer season varieties.
Below is given the approximate
dates of harvesting hay and grain for
the standard varieties for Tennessee
when they are seeded at the most
favorable time:
ITO SAN-Harvesting: Hay, July
1880; seed, August 5-September 6. Ex-
ira early; well suited to rich land only.
Observation-Disclosures: Hay,
August 1880; seed, September 1-2O.
Early; best suited to rather rich land.
Mountaineering: Hay, Septem-
Der lis; seed, September 23-October
7. Stems fine; adapted to poor land;
tendency to vtning habit.
MAMMOTH YELLOW AND TOK-
YO-Harvesting Hay, September IT,
80; Seed, October 7-21. Adapted to all
soils.
For hog pasture purposes all varie-
ties may be used several days before
hay stage if necessary.

Large numbers of pure-bred live
stock are now being brought into this
state from other states. Most of these
animals are sires but many are mature
females. This introduction is apt to
continue for an indefinite period.
This state has now quite a number
of local breeders, some of whom rank
with the best in any state, but the
majority are still in the developing
stage or mere amateurs. These men
are, and will continue more to be,
contenders for this trade in pedigreed
live stock, not only in this state but
also in adjoining and more distant ter
ritory.
VIII they be able to successfully
compete with our present dominant
source of supply, l. e., the Middle
West?
What will be necessary in order that
they may expect to secure this bust
ness?
These are questions, the answers to
which should be receiving serious
thought by those already taking and
proposing to take steps in the regis
tered live stock industry.
We cannot hope to have the history
of this state materially different from
that of other states in this regard-in
fact, for the many who start, the few
remain and develop into real breeders.
The man who wants to become sue
