SOY BEANS,
!. A new FOOD
People This Year Who Have
Some of These Beans Are
Fortunate
SOyS COMPARED WITH MEAT
How To Prepare Them for the Table
To Get Most Out Of Them and To
Make Them Most Paiatable-Soy
Beans Cheap az Food.

(By Carl Vrooman, Assistant Secre.
tary, u. s. Department of Agriculture
Among the simple, nutritious, and in,
expensive foods which should be listed
on every housekeeper's program OF
home preparedness is the soy bean. AS
a forage crop in the United States
these beans are we'll known, but as yet
the soy bean, which is utilized widely
in Japan, China, and India for human
food, has not yet been used to any
great extent for that purpose.
When soy beans sells for 15c quart,
1Oc worth will supply over Ave ounces
of protein. When beef Of average com.
position sells for zoe pound, loo
worth will supply little over an ounce
of protein. Soy beans contain $3.50
protein, 1870 fat, and $3.50 carlo.
hydrates, as against 24s% protein, 19o
fat, and 500 carbohydrates in navy
beans.
Soy beans contain more fat than
starch. Next to peanuts, they contain
more fat than any other legumes. They
contain more protein than any other
vegetable. This not only makes them
a fatty food, but 1t makes 1t possible
TO cook them without the addition of
pork or other fat. Soy beans can be
used in almost exactly the same way
as the ordinary navy beans.
To prepare baked soy beans, soak
the beans over night In cold water;
in the morning add pinch Of soda and
boil the beans In the water in which
they were soaked. Pour off the water
and use it for making soup. Put the
beans in baking dish, add two level
teaspoonsful of salt. cover them with
water, cover the dish, and bake six to
eight hours, leaving the dish uncover
ed during the last hour. 1t is unneces-
sary to flavor them with molasses, as
their natural flavor is delicious.
Since the soy bean contains little
starch, the liquid in which they are
cooked is not thickened. and the beans
remain separate. II this is considered
Objectionable the liquid can be thick
ened with corn meal--one-third OF q
cup to a quart of beans.
The skins Of the soy beans can be
removed by boiling the beans for 10
minutes and allowing them to cool
over night in the same water and then
rubbing between the hands. Most per.
sons prefer the beans without the
skins. They have a more delicate
flavor and probably are more easily
digested when thus prepared.

PRODUCE. HIGH
GRADE CREAM
Tennessee Farmers Who Keep
Dairy Cows Can Thus
Increase Profits
CLEAN MILK CLEAN CREAM
Many Farmers Are Selling Cream and
Getting Regular Pay Checks In Re-
s.FH-Permanent Success Depends
Upon Production of Clean Cream.

Good, clean cream should be pro-
duced on every Tennessee farm where
dairy cows are kept, according to C. A.
Hutton, Dairy Specialist of the Di.
vision of Extension, University Of
Tennessee, Knoxville.
Just short while back" says Mr..
Hutton, "the Dairy Division of the U.
s. Department of Agriculture, seeing
the Importance of good cream to the
South, gave its recommendations,
based on years of experience The
points made by the government work.
ers should be well taken in TENNESSEE
"Clean milk is absolutely indispensa-
BILE to the production OF clean cream.
To produce clean milk the barn, barn.
yard, mixers, and milk utensils must
be clean, and the cows must be clean
and healthy.
THE cream separator and the milk
utensils should be thoroly washed
and scalded as soon as possible after
they are used, as particles of milk or
cream left in the separator or on uten-
sils act as starter and cause the
cream to sour more quickly.
Cream should be separated so as
to contain from 80 to IS per cent of
butterfat, as rich cream does not sour
so quickly as thin cream Rich cream
leaves more skimmilk on the farm for
feeding purposes, reduces transporta-
ton expenses, makes less bulk to ham
die on the farm and in the creamery,
and usually reaches the creamery in
better condition.
Cream sours very quickly at :em-
peratures above So F.; therefore 1t
should be kept at as low temperature
as possible. Cream should be cooled
Immediately after it has been separat-
ed, and should be kept cold until de.
livered to the creamery. Cold water
is an effective agent for this purpose.
Fresh cream should not be mixed with
cream from previous skimmings until
it has been thoroly cooled, as the
addition OF warm cream raises the tenn
perature of the older cream and
hastens souring.
Cream should be kept in a clean,
well-ventilated place in order that OBJ
lectionable odors may not be absorb
ed from the atmosphere
I'm order to keep the cream smooth
and uniform and prevent the forna-
ton of Jumps, 1t should be thoroly
stirred each time a new lot OF cream
is added to the older cream.
''In the summer, when cream is en-
route, the cans should be entirely GOV.
cred with wet sacks or blankets to pro-
tect the cream from the heat.
ITO insure the delivery of cream OF
good quality, 1t should be delivered
at least twice a week in winter and
three times a week in summer"
