Soy-bcan seed now is of considerable
value and It is essential that all farm
ers who have raised ii thrash and
store IL SO as to prevent deterioration
and loss.
The ordinary grain separator can
be adjusted to thrash any beans sue
CesSfully, but this machine, if equipped
TO thrash small grains, must be re-
adjusted when soy beans are to be
thrashed. as otherwise q large per-
CentaEe of cracked seed will result.
The chief cause of split beans is the
high speed of the cylinder, which
should be reduced ST least one-half,
although the speed Of the fans and
otner parts Of the separator may be
maintained at normal.
Satisfactory Machines.
Special pea and bean separators OF
different sizes are now on the market.
These types of machines do clean
hulling and split practically none of
the beans. Undoubtedly such separa-
tors are more satisfactory and econom-
ical where considerable acreage of
beans is grown. In sections where
there is an extensive seed production,
investment in such I. machine by
community would be profitable.
Soy beans, If thoroughly dry. can
easily be thrashed with a fail. If one

he received many protests. The own
er gave permission to the pedestrians
to put in a gate at each end Of the
path that would permit them to pass,
but prevent the escape of cattle. This
was done in the manner illustrated.
An opening was cut in the fence,
IL feet wide, a post placed on each

them, about IL feet from the fence

quite satisfactory-Wer w. Bau-

BY EARL c. REEVES.
International News Service.

LONDON, May 22.-An ardent
plea for the League of Nations, in
which he pointed out "the growing
of the British government" I"
both at home and abroad, was made
today by Lord Robert Cecil. M. p,
chairman of the executive commit
tee of the league.
Cannot Prevent War.
Lord Robert. who has been one
OF the strongest European supporters
OF the League Of Nstions since the
idea took form in the peace con-
ference. declared that the masses are
firmly behind the proposal for a
society OF nations. even though the
workers did not succeed in getting
everything they wanted into the cove
nsnt.
The statesman admitted that the
league Of nations could not prevent
war under present conditions, but he
said that the machinery should have
been utilized in an effort to prevent
the present hostilities between Rus
sia and Poland. He called upon the
British government to put the
strength of the empire behind the
league and thus lead the world"
Present Form Inefficient.
Lord Roberts statement, which was
made exclusively to the International
News Service, follows:
~ nm profoundly convinced that
the present league of nations IL quite
for the purpose for which
II was formed. namely, the preven-
tion Of war. But that does not mean
that it cannot be made effective. !
think 1t could be.
But IL must be worked out and en-
forced by people who believe in 1t.

sheyik Russia was most serious.

cry should not have been put to Its
