mcnt OF AgrlculturoD
With the widely increased popular
ity of the soy bean the harvest nf the
crop has gained markedly In impor-
tnnce In practically every section "t
the country. According to specialists
the fact that practical and satisfactory
bean harycSters are now on the mar
ket NJ comparatively reasonable prices
and are efficient for harvc ling the
crop either when grown under level
or ridgedrow methods of cultivation,
great increases the value uf this
crop not only rs forage Tor live
stock. hut also for human food pur-
poses.
The most common type Of special
been harvester is a two-whcelrd, box
like machine which Is drawn by two
horses. As the machine passes over
the row of plants four sets Of rapidly
revolving arms shattcr the beans from
the pods into the body Of the hnr.
veSter. While the machine moves
along the row the seed Is gradually
rnked 10 the rear Of the box by one of
the operators. Under favorable condi-
tlons two men with team can har-
vest-and harvesting means cutting
and thrnshing the crop In one opera
tion--one acre of beans In two hours
by this method where the yield Is
about 20 bushels to the acre. Although
there Is some loss Of beans II Is more
than compensated by the saving of
time and labor MS compared with har
vesting In other ways.
If the plants are not too coarse IN,
sclf-hindcr can also be used 10 good
advantage In the harvest Of the taller
growing varieties OF beans. This meth
od Is gaining favor rapidly In many
sections. MS the average grower owns
q grain binder, while, MS II rule, unless
he intends to produce soy beans rs d
regular rotation crop II will not pay
him individually 10 purchase n speclu
bean harvester. But where Scvrrn
farmers In the ucighbOrhood can 20
opcrativcly buy this equipment sucl
procedure Is commcndahle. For th'
best results. where the grain bindcj
Is used. the plants should le cut whil'
some Of the leaves are still rctnlnc,
as then the harvesting is easier an'
no loss results from shattcrlng.

Isfnctory results, Ms II hnrvrsts the
crop without exposing II 10 injury.
When cut with moving machine or

be raked In small piles or pl0ccd In
small shocks. These piles or shocks
should be- left for four or five days
In good drying weather or until the
grain is found to hc fnlrly dry In th"
