SOY BEANS AS HUMAN FOOD
Ancient China's Product Can Be Served
in Numerous Desirable Ways.

While the soy bean has been crown in
the United States primarily as for
age crop, its availability as valuable
food for human beings is being gwen
increasing attention. Many schools Of
cookery and domestic science in this
country, as well as home economies ex-
perts and home demonstration agents Of
the United States department of ag-i-
culture, have shown that dried beans can
be used successfully in the same man-
ner as navy beans. The variety ard
| palatability of the ways in which the
beans can be served make them a desir-
able article of food.
When prepared like the ordinary field
or navy beans, the soy beans should
be soaked for 10 or II hours or more.
if necessary, and boiled slowly. The
boiled soy beans, like boiled navy or
field beans, may be seasoned and used
as the principal part of a meal as they
are or may be made into bean leaf, bean
croqucttes, or other dishes.
When soy beans are three-fourtlis or
more grown, the seed makes a palstable
and nutritious green vegetable.

has been next to impossible to pick cot

with proper management and the like.
a good deal of that cotton would have
been saved, and saved at profit.
