SOY BEAN MAKES ITS WAY
NORTH TO COOLER CLINICS.

The soy bean, an Asiatic importa-
ton, popularity associated with the
South, is making its way north. and
according to reports received by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, is being well received.
Most of the varieties first brought
to this country were from parts of
Asia. whose climate corresponded
more nearly to the Southern States.
Within the last seven or eight years
the department has obtained about
800 introductions OF soy beans from
Manchuria, Korea. and Japan, some
OF which grew as far north as the
hfty-second parallel. The most prom
ising northern varieties are the Black
Eyebrow, the Mandarin. and the
Manchu, all native to latitude of a.
bout 46 degrees, on account of which
they are adapted to our most north
ern States. A large number of samples
OF Black Eyebrow soy bean were
sent to northern farmers last wear.
and out OF 55l reports returned more
than 400 were favorable. Reports
promise a great increase in acreage i'm
Northern States this year. Seedsmen
are laying in supplies of these more
northern varieties; but many farmers.

despair in his eyes that our smiles
were turned in an instant to horror
and pity. For a while he could not

of his reason. Then, suddenly spring.

knew so well how to employ.

were found and were identified by the
negro as Johnny Williams and Willie
Givens.
From the pasture Manning guided the
posse to the Campbell place near Alcovy
and there pointed out graves for the
men to dig. AS he stood by one of the
places. Manning told in the typical ne
gro conversation how big john" the
negro buried there, had been made to
dig his own grave.
The body of Big John was found just
as Manning had described and later a
body was exhumed which was identified
as Fletcher Smith by the negro.
In the meanwhile deputies dredging
the Alcovy river had discovered the
body of one negro. Manning identified
the corpse as that of Charlie Chisholm
and told how he and Mr.. Johnny had
overpowered him, tied a sack of rocks
to his feet and thrown him from the
bridge to drown.
Manning told the officers none of the
negroes had been killed after the first
three bodies were found in Yellow and
South rivers. Manning said that Will
liarns told him to keep his mouth shut"
and that if he didn't say anything the
federal officials would never find out
