Kind of Fowls To Keen.

Householders usually desire not
only eggs for the table and for cook
ing, but also an occasional chicken to
eat. For this reason one of the gen
eral-purpose breeds, such as the Ply
mouth Rock, Wyandotte, Rhode Is
land Red, or Orpington, is preferable
to the smaller egg breeds, such as
the Leghorns. Not only do the ma
ture fowls of these breeds, because
of their larger size, make better table
fowls than the LeghOrns, but the
young chickens for the same reason
make better friers and roasters,
whereas chickens of the egg breeds
are only suitable for the smaller
broilers.

Improves Varictles Of Soy Bcans.

Improves Varieties Of Soy Beans.
The increasing utilization of the
soy bean as food and in numerous
manufactured products has resulted
in an increased public interest I'm this
crop and a consequent larger acreage.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has extended its field
work with soy beans during the past
year, especially in connection with
the testing of improved varieties Sc
lected from numerous introductions
from Asia. Much hybridization in
volving the crossing Of the nonshat-
tering, smooth sort with standard
commercial sorts has been done.
Many of the most important vari-
cites now grown are the result of the
departments work. Several recent
ly distributed are the Haberlandt,
Virginia, Wilson-Five, Hahto, Biloxi,
Manchu and Picking. The testing of
varieties for food purposes has given
a boiling bean, Easy Cook, SUI
perior to any other tested, and the
Hahto, a variety especially valuable
for use as green vegetable. Breed
ing work is being continued with
varieties of high oil and protein con-
tent and high forage and seed yield.

mcat OF Agriculture as a part of its
effort to assist in improving focks
and making poultry raising more at

vantages of community interest in
better poultry are concentration Of
effort on one variety, opportunities
for collective marketing, economy in
buying and selling breeding stock,
and increased skill in poultry manage
ment. Already As poultry-breeding
associations have been formed. In
Virginia a Barred Plymouth Rock
association has developed a coopera-
tive selling plan OF n size that re-
quires a manager to handle the bust
ness. Organizations of this kind are
not only beneficial to the members,

Bull Associations Developc Rapidly.
The first bull association in the
United States was organized in 1908
by the Michigan Agricultural College.
1t was a cooperative venture similar
to those which have existed in Europe
for a long time. On July l, 1917,
there were in this country SO active
associations in II states, with total
membership of LBS, owning 1879
pure-bred bulls. These cooperative
organizations enable the owners OF
small herds to unite in the purchase
of one good bull, so that each may
own a share in a registered bull of
high quality. Though still in its in
fancy. the cooperative bull associa-
ton movement promises to become
eventually a very great factor in the
improvement of dairy cattle in the
United States.
