SOY BEAN TAKING
 MAJOR CROP STAND
Farming This Product Is Increas-
 ing Daily Out West

Washington, Aug. IS (By the Asso- ciated Press)-The soy bean is rap idly taking a place as major crop in the farming systems of the corn belt, replacing oats to considerable extent and taking part of the corn acreage, says the department of agri- culture. Although primarily used for forage, pasture and ensilage, the growing of seed during the last few years has become very profitable industry. The production of seed has now increased to the point where the supply greatly exceeds the demand for planting.
 Seed Developed.
 County soy bean associations, grow CTS, county agents and extension of- ficials, notably in Illinois and Indiana. have concerned themselves in the de- velopment of a commercial outlet for the seeds, 1t is noted. Several mills in those states have become interest ed in the possibilities of that bean as source of oil and meal. Two mills in Illinois have planned to use about 750,00o bushels this season, 1t has been reported to the department, while other mills are planning on a smaller scale.
 Bean Increases.
 The department inspectors have found considerable acreage put to growing the soy bean in the northern and corn belt states, showing a con- siderable increase. The possibilities Of using the bean for oil and meal are ascribed by officials as the req son for the increase. Such com mercial outlet affords the grower an- other cash crop as corn and wheat, it is said.
 The various ways in which the soy bean and its product are utilized in the United States indicate a ready for the commercial production of soy bean seed, the department cir cuar declares. Soy bean oil is large ly used in the manufacture of soaps and paints, and it is also used in the of lard and butter sub- stitutes, rubber substitutes, linoleum and printing ink, and as a salad oil. The cake or meal is a superior cat tie feed and of high value for hu- man consumption.

POPE DECIDES WHO
 SHALL SERVE HAGUE
Appoints Monsignor 0rsenigo as
 Papal Internuncio There

Rome, Aug. 1S.-"Priests and sol diers receive orders and must obey them" were the words of the pope in deciding the question who should be- come papal internuncio at the Hague You will be the right man in the right place" Monsignor Orsenigo bowed, and the matter was closed.
 The monsignor had hesitated for conscientious reasons, not considering himself fitted to deal with the re- responsibilities of the position. But the pontiff thought otherwise, and thus disposed of problem which for some time had caused speculations in vatican circles.
 Great Charity Worker.
 Monsignor Orsenigo's life, for the past 25 years has been devoted to works of charity To be torn rom the paths he had chosen for himself made him hold back; he was per- plexed by the possible difficulties In view of the Russian conference re- gently held at the Hague.
 Usually the representatives abroad of the Holy See are chosen from among the young priests who have at tended the Academy of Noble Eccles- iastics in Rome, which has so aptly been called the nursery of cardin- als." They are generally first sent out as secretaries, and are later pro- noted until they reach the rank Of papal nuncio. The pope had met Monsignor Orsenigo in Milan, where he had collaborated with him in church paper called "St. Charles Sor- romeo" Plus XI noticed then his great culture; his fluent knowledge or most modern languages, and the hls- torical insight shown in some books which Monsignor Orsenigo had pub lished. These qualities the pope re- membered when the question arose of who to send to the Hague, and the decision was quickly made.

one corner on the top shelf that needs filling"
 But Jimmy Rabbit wasn't in hur- ry He happened to remember that he hal heard of others who had worked for Uncle Sammy Coon.
 Let me think a moment" he said. T believe there was a Frog that helped you at one time. I'd like to talk with him"
 Very well." said Uncle Sammy. Talk with him--if you can find him"
 And there was a Mouse that worked here, too" Jimmy Rabbit went on "1'd want to hear what he says"
 Talk with 'em both--if you can find 'em." Uncle Sammy Coon cried i'm patiently. I'm sure they won't say word against me or my eating house.
 Where's your larder?" Jimmy asked him next
 Uncle Sammy jerked a paw over lis shoulder.
 Right at the back of the room!" he said: and he glanced around as he spoke. T declare" he muttered, I've left the door of the larder open"
 He turned to close it. AS he hob bled away Jimmy Rabbit hoped through the doorway and peered past Uncle Sammy Coon. And what he saw on the top shelf of the larder made him jump back again.
 yl,o he had come back to the doorway, you'd better work here today, any how. A bushel Of green peas! Yum Yum" And the old scamp smacked his lips
 ''No!" said Jimmy firmly. T looked into your larder just now and I don't care to fill that top shelf for you, along with the Mouse and the Frog that you've got there.'
 What" cried Uncle Sammy, pre- tending to be greatly surprised. Did those rascals climb into my larder? Is that where they've gone? Come right in and we'll toss them out and send them about their business"
 Toss them out yourself said Jimmy Rabbit That wouldn't be my Work. My "OrR WoulC De 10 III the larder, not to empty it."
 Quite right You're quite right.' Uncle Sammy agreed. Just you stay where you are for a minute and I'll toss them out Of the back window" And again he hobbed away.
 Peeping through the doorway, Jim my Rabbit saw him open the larder door and climb upon the top shelf. 1 Then Jimmy took two jumps across the floor, which brought him to the ] back of the eating house. 1r jif- | fly he slammed the door of the larder l and turned the wooden button upon it.
 Uncle Sammy Coon was prisoner. | He gave muffled cry of rage and | began to scratch upon the inside of the door
 Let me out" he bawled
 First give me my bushel of green peas" Jimmy called to him. Then Off he scampered. And he never stopped laughing all the rest of that lay. He couldi't even take his daily nap. because every time he tried to go to slecr he wakened himself with his own ( uckling. Copyright 1922 by Metropolitan
