HARVEST SOY BEANS FOR GRAIN
U. S Department of Agriculture Issues
Bulletin on Relatively New Agri-
cultural Industry.

Washington, D. c., Sept. For the
information of farmers who are begin
ming to grow soy beans for grain rather
than for hay and who are unfamiliar
with the handling of the plants under
the former conditions, the United States
department of agriculture will shortly
publish farmers bulletin, Harvesting
Soy Beans for Seed" The demand for
these seeds for use in the production of
oil, feed cake and other bean products is
rapidly increasing and the farmers of the
United States are preparing to meet this
demand
The character of growth, the uniform
maturing habits, and the heavy seed
yields of the soy beans, says the bulletin,
contribute to the ease of harvesting and
recommend the plants for seed produr-
ton. The many disadvantages which at
tend the harvesting of cowpeas for seed
are not common to the soy bean. When
grown for grain alone the SCATTERING of
pods of the soy bean is serious fault
and inexperienced growers are likely to
sustain a heavy loss of seed through
lack of knowledge and improper hand
ling of the soy bean plant. The shatter-
ing varies with the varieties of the bean

Last of Men at Fort Ethan

Better Feeling Among Them
as They Depart to Join
Their Comrades

Burlington, Sept. 4.-The last of the
First Vermont regiment, which was
scheduled to depart as soon as possible
after receiving orders, left Sunday night
for Westfeld, Mass, on special train.
There are already about 700 of the Ma.
tional Guard from Vermont stationed in
Westfield. Those who left Sunday night
were the band, the hospital corps, head
quarters company, about 500 enlisted
GERS of the regiment All day Saturday
aud Sunday preparations were being
made for departure, tents were taken
down, mess shacks dismantled, and rub
bish burned. Every company street was
looked over thoroughly, and a general
cleanup was in order. The men took
with them all of their equipment, includ-
ing the tents, so that to-day the camp
has the appearance of a deserted viii
lage.
Now that the men know that all of
the regiment is to leave and there is a
possibility that they may come together
again, there is not Is much discomfort
as there was at first At their departure
Sunday evening there were no demon
STATIONS of any kind other than the
usual fsrewells.
No information is available concern
ing the future of the First Vermont,
Dut the general opinion is that they will
soon be sent abroad.
Plans are being made for a reorganiza
ion of the Y. NJ G. A. staff at the post
oincident with the removal of the First |
Vermont regiment. The Y. NJ. G. A. sec
etaries are in favor of removing the
building which is at present on the state
eservation, closer to the 18th and 10Th |
avalry camps. But before this can be
one, arrangements have to be made with
he governor. Owing TO the uncertainty
f the cavalry regiments staying indef-
itely at Fort Ethan Allen, it is ques
ion whether it syoulf be advisable to
o this. Several new secretaries are ex-

proaches to prevent serious losses from
this cause.
| In general. the best time to harvest
except where special bean harvesters are
used, is when about three fourths of the
leaves have fallen and most of the pods
have turned color. If cut at an earlier
stage the plants are difficult to cure prop.
erly, and the yield will be lessened mate.
rally on account of the immature grain.
On the other hand, if the plants are al
lowed to become too ripe the pods will
shatter before being cut and much seed
will be lost, When special harvesters are
used to gather the seed the plants must
reach full maturity to obtain the best re.
suits.
Methods of Harvesting
Various methods of harvesting the
crop are in use in different sections
where the soy bean is grown largely for
seed production. The crop may be cut
with ordinary moving machines. self
rake reapers, self binders, or even with
scythes, corn knives or sickles. The beans
also may be harvested with special
bean harvester which gathers the grain
from the standing plants.
When the plants are cut before ma
turity they are cured in shocks and al
lowedto remain in the field until con
venient time for threshing. If thorough
" dry they may be housed and threshed
later.
Threshing may be done with an ordi- |
nary grain separator, but if this machine |
is used it must be altered somewhat to |
prevent the cracking of the beans. In
some cases a special set of thin concaves
is used for threshing beans and in other
some of the eoncaves are re-
moved Good Judgment on the part of |
he thresherman will enable him to ad
lust the ordinary separator so that the
beans may be threshed with little split
ing. Special pea and bean sepsrators
ire on the market and their use may be
advisable when large acreages of the
,eans are to be handled. II thoroughly
Irv. soy beans can be threshed with a
lail. If only small acreage is to be
hreshed ian acre or so--this metho|
practicable and economical In a few
ections a corn shredder has been used
o advantage in threshing beans If {.
roperly cured and dried out, the beans

hine
The straw obtained from threshing soy q,
cans for seed is valuable feed for all )
inds of stock. In many sections the r
traw is baled at the time of threshing d
nd sold to liverymen, dairymen and Y
took feeders. II
AS soy bean seed spoils rather easily t
not properly handled, care should be C
Sercised in curing and storing. After j
le beans are threshed they should be ri
atched carefully to avoid heating and il
Gliding. When thoroughly dry there is b
, such danger The best plan, perhaps, lo
to spread the seeds out on asfoor i'm O
ediately after threshing and shovel |
em over from time to time until they e.
e thoroughly dry. After this they y
ay be safely put into sacks or bins !

SEES its viability rather rapidly and it y
