VELVET BEANS SOLVE FEED
PROBLEMS

The feed question: is being solved
in many parts of the south by abund
ant yields of velvet beans which were
sown on large acreage this year. Ow-
ing to the increase acreage in Georgia.
that state alone could take care of So,
900 to 100000 head of cattle from
states where forage is scarce, accord
ing to report recently received by
the Bureau of Crop Estimates. Large
quantities of last years velvet beans
also remain on hand and are being US
ed excessively in feed ing dairy cattle.
In tests conducted by the United
States Department of Agriculture on
the Government farms at Beltsville
Md, it was found that velvet beans
compared favorably with cottonseed
meal, producing profitable gains when
the beans are the sole concentrate of
the ration: that combination of corn
silage and velvet beans forms a salts
factory ration for fattening steers for
market; that it is more profitable to
feed soaked beans than it is to grind
them; and that more beans will be
eaten if soaked before fed than if they
are fed dry.

them and the ways of combating
them. The submarines, in addition to
sinking a number of steamers and at
lacking others. In some cases only a
few miles from the harbor of New
York, also destroyed considerable
number of fishing vessels off New Eng
land. Several fights with these U-boats
were reported and IL was believed that
at least one of them was sunk. What
was believed to be a gas attack on
the coast guard station and lighthouse
on Smiths island, South Carolina, in
which several men We're overcome, has
not yet been explained though the
theory that the poison gas came from
a submarine was discarded. Presum-
ably the fact that our naval vessels
are pretty busy on convoy duty accounts
for the comparative immunity of these
U-b0ats along the Atlantic coast
The steady decline of the German
submarine campaign is emphasized by
the official reports on sinkingS and
Shipbuilding for July. The allied and
neutral shipping sunk during the month
amounted to 100000 tons, compared
with 534, 500 tons sunk in July, 1917
During the month the allied nations
constructed a tonnage in excess Of
100000 to that destroyed by enemy OPP
erations.
