SOY BEAN BECOMES
:. ONE Of BIC CROP

WASHINGTON, D. C.-By the
Associated Press.)-The soy bean
is rapidly taking place as a major
crop in the farming systems OF the
corn belt, replacing oats to a con-
siderable extent and taking part CT
the corn acreage, says the depart
nent Of agriculture. Although pr1-
marily used for forage, pasture and
ensilage, the growing of seed DUR
ing the last few years has become q
very profitable industry. The pro-
duction Of seed has now increased
to the point where the supply great
ly exceeds the demand for planting.
County soy bean associations,
growers, county agents and extern
sion officials, notably in Illinois and
Indiana, have concerned themselves
in the development Of a commercial
outlet for the seeds, it is noted. Sew
eral mills in those states have be-
come interested in the possibilities
Of that bean as source of oil and
meal. Two mills in Illinois have
planned to use about 100000 BUSH
els this season, it has been report.
ed to the department, while other
mills are planning on a smaller
| scale.
The department inspectors have
found considerable acreage put to
growing the soy bean in the north
ern and corn belt states, showing
a considerable increase. The. posi-.
| bilities of using the bean for oil
and meal are ascribed by officials
as the reason for the increase.
Such a commercial outlet affords
the grower another cash crop as
corn and wheat, it is said.
The various ways in which the
soy bean and it's product are util
lied in the United States indicata
ready market for the commercial
production Of soy bean seed, tha
department circular declares. Sow
bean oil is largely used in the man,
ufacture Of soaps and paints, and
it is also used in the MANUFACTURES
of lard and butter substitutes, rub,
Der substitutes, linoleum and print
ing ink, and as a salad oil. The
cake or meal is a superior cattle
feed and of high value for human
cOnSllmptiOn.

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
BY DR.. ANDREW M SOULE ~~

The total area Of the counties in
question is approximately 7,099,32(
acres. It appears that less than 4J
per cent of the land is as yet under
cultivation. Certainly there is much
good land which can still be
brought under the plow with advan
tage, and which must ultimately be
intensively cultivated and made
highly productive in order to build
up and maintain this section on.

Second, on basis which will in.

Third, on basis which will in
sure this territory's supplying it's
just proportion of food and raw ma
terial to the people and the indus
tries Of the country viewed as a
whole.
One Of the most important matters
affecting the success and prosperity
of every community is the provision
of All adequate local food supply. To
determine just what these thirty
counties are doing along this line it
will first be necessary to ascertain
the amount of food consumed per
capita in the south and in the con-
tinental United States. The best
data available on this subject is
predicated on an investigation made
by the United State department OF
agriculture of the amount of food
consumed by the average white
adult person on the farms in North
Carolina, Georgia and Texas. This
represents an examination into the
dietary of ESQ families in the several
states mentioned. The amount, of
food annually consumed per adult
person was found to be as follows:

The application of these figures to
the food production of the counties
under consideration shows that we
are falling very much behind these
standards in certain particulars, and
that we will need to change our farm
prac tice materially If we expect to
provide our people with the amount
and variety of food which these fig
ures indicate as essential. Even if
we presume these standards to be
high, it is evident that over-produc-
ton in the matter Of most of our
food crops in the area under consid-
Grafton is more imaginary than real.
Presenting, for the sake of argu-
ment. that we set aside for the mo-
ment the further consideration of
these figures and examine into the
food standards worked out for the
United States as a whole, we find
that minimum of six bushels Of
wheat per capita, irrespective of
seed, is required to maintain cur

WILL EXPLAIN
NEW APPLIANCE
OF VICTOR X-RAY

April 10 to 1,5 Mr.. Glenn W.. Files
of the educational department Of the
Victor X4Ray, corporation of Chicago
will be in Bismarck and will give
demonstrations of the Potter-Bucky
Diaphragm, Victor Kearsley Sta'bilizer
and Victor Sphere Gap at the St. Alex
ius hospital. 4
Mr.. Files, who will conduct these
demonstrations has been close asso-
ciate of Edward G. Jerman, technical
director Of the, educational department,
and has unusual ability as a demon
stratOr.
A complete definition Of these three
demonstrations follow:
The Potter Bucky Diaphragm prin-
ciple, as developed in the Victor
Model, is the most radical improve
ment in the X-ray art in recent years.
Radiographs obtained with it are in
comparably superior in detail, and con
seuuently in diagnostic value.
I The Victor-Kearsley Stabilizer is an
apparatus which automatically main
tains constant the current passing
through Coolidge tube, thus not only
simplifying its operation, but inspir-
ing uniformity of results heretofore
not obtainable. It's function and
manipulation will be demonstrated and
explained.
The Victor Sphere Gap is an in
strument designed in response to a de.
mand for means Of accurately meas
uring high tension voltage (gap). In
order to base measurements obtained
with it on a uniform, nationally ac-
cepted standard. its specifications COM
ply with those of the American lnsti-
tute of lElectrica} Engineers.
The demonstrations will be given
in the X-ray laboratory of the St. Alex
ius hospital and will be free of charge.
