the mound he had a perfect day
at bat with a double and two
singles and scored two of his

contest matched Bauer of Wa
basso and Struckman, Wanda
hurler, in pitching duel which
was close all the way.
The game was played in pas
. ture as the Wanda diamond was
flooded during the storm Satur-
day. Wabasso drew first blood in
the opening inning but Wanda
played good ball particularly in
tight spots and the contest was
one of the best of the season.

too much for the league-leading

A Growing LndaSt3-y

From a modest beginning, tht
soybean processing industry has
grown until soybean production
in this country reached peak OF
over "A million bushels in 1885,
of which more than one-half was
processed. The current crop is
expected to exceed that record
year, on the basis of government
statistics.
A research council, composed
of a group of scientific men in
Guiding DR.. ]. w. Hayward, of
Minneapolis, chairman; Dr.. ]. e.
Hunter, Peoria, Ill.,; DR.. H. e.
Robinson, Chicago; DIR. K. j.
Seulke, Decatur, ILL.,; Lyman
Peck, Fort Wayne, In, and La
mar Kishler, st. Louis, recently
prepared review on the litera-
ture of soybeans which deals very
largely with their nutritional
properties as a feed for animals.
The council states that soybean
clinical has long been recognized
as valuable feed for livestock,
because of its high biological
value, its fat content, its impress
sive list of carbohydrate mater
ials" and other desirable constitu-
ents.
Citing the phenomenal growth
of soybean oilmeal production dur
ing the past decade, the council
also says sit is obvious that a
product must have merit to in
crease in volume thirty times
during years when all feedstuffs
we're cheap and plentiful"
Commercial feeds containing
soybean oilmeal as an ingredient
ere highly recommended by a
number of state experimental sta
tons which have conducted ex-
haustive tests in stock and poultry
feeding.

Seldom has committee of six

task than that now engaging the
attention of three high railroad
executives and three railroad Ia
Dor leaders, appointed by the
President to suggest construc-

rehabilitation of the hard pressed

It is we'll known that the rail

Requests for increases in rates
sufficient to relieve the situation
have been denied, and proposed
wage reduction has been abandon

now seems the only hope, If the
roads are to be enabled to main
tain their present high efficiency
in serving the public.
