SIMPLE METHOD OF PUMPING
California Inventor Has Utilized Old
Principle With Results That Are
EminentIy Satisfactory.

1t Is said that a California inventor
has utilized the principle Of the old
river ferryboat in a plant for pump
ing water from a stream. The con-
trivance consists Of two parallel
sweeps, II feet in length, attached
to a reclprocating beam firmly
anchored to the ground The down
stream ends Of the sweeps connect
with 16 vertical paddles arranged In
two parallel rows in a suitable frame
work. The paddles are pivoted and
have an angular movement Of about
AZ degrees. The pressure of the
current against the paddle swings
the sweeps across the river, where
the angle of the paddles Is automat-
ically reversed. Thus the sweeps
move back and forth with the regu-
larity Of pendulum. Attached to
pumping unit on shore, the apparatus
delivers SO gallons of water a minute.

"SOYS" CAN BE GROWN
ON LIGHT SANDY SOILS
They Hold Up Well, Too, Under
Frost-Varieties Recomme nded.

Professor Andrew Boss, vice direc-
tor of the Minnesota Experiment
Station and a nationally known and
recognized authority on farm crops
and farm management, believes that
the soybean will in time become one
Of the leading forage crops OF the
central west. Each year shows
steady advancement in acreage and
in the interest taken in this annual
legume.
The soybean was known in the
United States as early as 1904, but
it received little attention until about
1900. Since then more than 200
strains and varieties have been in.
troduced through the United States
Department Of Agriculture and the

rich in protein, fat and oil. Soybean
seeds contain more than three times
as much protein as wheat bran which
is 11.9 protein.

CATTLE FEEDING OUTLOOK
FOR THE COMING WINTER
Peters Believes Prices VIII Be Well
Maintained the Next Eight Months.

Discussing cattle feeding prospects
for the coming winter in an address
broadcast from the radio station
WLAG, Minneapolis, Prof w. H.
Peters, chief Of the animal husban-
dry division, University Of Minnesota,
said in part:
1.-THE fattening of cattle for market
is always a more or less speculative
undertaking because one cannot de-
termine in advance what will be the
market value of feeds through the
feeding period or what will be the
selling price of the cattle when they
are ready for market. A careful
study of conditions in the fall Of the
year at the beginning of the usual
fattening period, however, will usual
ly afford a fairly safe guide to the
cattle feeder. This year the situa-
ton seems to be about as follows:
Thin cattle are selling at moderate
prices and the farmer who has thin
cattle to sell will not get very salts
factory prices for them. Any farmer
who has thin cattle on hand and the
feeds to fatten them with can pretty
nearly rest assured that 1t will pay
him better to market the cattle and
the feed together as fat cattle rather
than to market each separately by
selling the cattle thin and the feed
as feed.
1.-THE man who has his own home
grown cattle and part of the feed
necessary can count on buying what
additional feed is required and stand
q chance of coming out successfully.
with the rather low price of thin
cattle at the present time, the man
who has considerable home grown
feed, but no cattle, should be able to
buy suitable feeder cattle at rea-
sonable price and market his feed
then at profitable prices by feeding it
to the cattle.
"The principal uncertain factor
that will determine the practicability
of fattening cattle during the coming
winter is the price that the cattle will
sell for when wintered through the
winter and spring months. For sew
eral years the price for cattle has
been rather steady and the market
has been able to absorb all Of the
highly fattened fat cattle without diff
ficulty. There is no visible reason
to anticipate any noticeable reduction
or increase either in the price that
fat cattle will sell for next winter
and spring as compared to the prices
they brought last winter and spring.
II anything, the higher price Of corn
will cause a few less cattle to be put
on feed and It seems reasonable to
suppose that prices will be fully as
high during the coming eight months
period as they were during the cor
eight months period Of
1922-1923."
