Interesting Facts
Revealed By Dave
Moore At Tarboro
Little Bean Has the Power
To Revolutionize
Farming
Writing in the Tarboro Southern
er a few days ago, Dave Moore,
manager of the Southern Cotton Oil
company, released some salient facts
about the soy bean, facts that prove
almost beyond a doubt that eastern
Carolina farmers have a crop that
can revolutionize the agricultural
industry. Mr. Moore's story follows:
MBTHQD OF PLANTING.
Soybeans should be planted about
corn planting time in a well prepar
ed seed bed, this gives the beans a
chance to get started before grass
and weeds.
Experiments have shown that the
ordinary grain drill is the best meth
od of planting either in rows or by
broadcast. In using the grain drill
for planting in rows every other
hole should be closed up, thus giv
ing a greater distance between rows
and allowing for cultivaUon, the
beans should then be cultivated two;
or four times.
SEEDS.
It is not uncommon for the better
varieties of beans to yield from 25
to 40 bushels of beans to he acre
We have never given the thought or
taken the time to select or improve j
our soybean seed as we have with
the seed of our^other crops. It is
very important that we pay especial
attention to the selection of our seed
as the planting of inferior seed can
only result in an inferior crop. PlanT
only those seed secured from a rep
utable source, that have been re
cleaned and that show a germina
tion test and that are adapted to
your community, only by planting
the best seed can we hope to get the
best production.
FERTILIZATION.
Ordinarily the soybean does not
require fertilization, however, ex
periments carried out by the depart
ment of agriculture show that upon
land that has been planted to other
crops which*are heavy users of acid
phosphate and potash for a number
of years that an application of from
100 to 200 pounds of acid phosphate
and from 25 to 60 pounds of murate
of potash per acre will materially
increase the yield of beans per acre.
HARVESTING.
There are several methods of har
vesting the mature beans, the one
from harvester is much cheaper
than the combine but does not save
t?ut about half of the beans and fui ;
this reason the combine is used
more extensively as it will save
about ninety per cent of the beans.
The combine can also be used to
harvest other grains while the one
row harvester can only be used to
harvest soybeans.
SOYBEAN MEAL.
Soybean cake or meal remaining
after processing the beans for oil is
a most valuable product and has the
widest usefulness. In European
countries and in North America soy
bean meal ls used almost entirely
for feeding purposes It is highly
concentrated and nutritious and is
lelished by all Kinds of livestock."
In oriental countries it is used very
extensively for fertilizing purposes,
but is also recognized as a valuable
feed for work animals and for fat
tening stock. The use of the meal
as a flour for human food is be
coming increasingly important in
Europe, in North America and in the
Orient.
SOYBEAN MEAL
rOR HUMAN FOOD.
The meal remaining after the oil
is taken from yellow seeded varie
ties of soybeans is bright yellow in
color when fresh and has a sweet,
nutty flavor. The use of this meal
as flour for human food has becorrtv
an important factor in several Eu
ropean countries during the past
few years and to some extent in
North America as a fond cf hee.
starch content.
SOYBEAN MEAL
FOR STOCK FEED.
Practical experience supplement
ed hy extensive experiments in the
United States and in several Euro
pean countries indicates the high j
feeding value of soybean meal for
all kinds of farm stock. To avoid di
gestive troubles that may result^
from the high content of protein, it
should be fed with the same precau
tions observed with other highly
concentrated feeds. The digestibility
of soybean meal compares very fa
vorably- with that of other oil meals
SOYBEAN MEAL
FOR SWINE.
At the Ohio station soybean meals
resulting from the different meth
ods of processing soybeans for oil,
showed wide variations in then
value for supplementing corn for
pigs The result indicated that meals
made by the expeller and hydraulic
processes are superior to solvent oil
meals and as expeller oil meal hav
ing a raw beanlike color, odor and
taste. In stating the value of miner
al supplements to corn and rape
pasture, the same station found thai
2 pounds each of ground limestone
and bone meal saved 3U 3 pounds of
corn, u.4 pound of soybeans, and
0.3 pound of salt per 100 pounds ot
grain Soybean meal as a supple
ment to corn produced more rapid
gains than tankage or ground or
cooked soybeans At the North Car
olina station soybean meal was eat
en readily by pigs and produced
satisfactory gains when used as a
supplement to corn. More profit and
better gains were secured, however,
when soybean meal and fish meal
were mixed together in equal quan
titles than when the soybean meal
was fed as the sole protein supple
ment
SOYBEAN MEAL
FOR POULTRY.
With the rapid expansion of the
soybean industry, poultrymen huve
at their disposal a new puultry feed
that could well be used to much
greater orient than
ent Poultrymen sn the Pacific
Coast states have used soybean meal
for several years and consider it a
most excellent feed for flesh and
egg production A number of feed-,
ir.g teats at various experiment sta
tions have shown its value as a
poultry feed, although proteins from
a vegetable source have been gen- j
erally considered inferior to pro
teins from an animal source. It has
been shown that the addition of a
mineral mixture increases the value
of the soybean meal as a protein
supplement for growth and egg pro
duction.
In extensive feeding tests for egg
production at the Indiana station,
soybean meal, when supplemented
by the proper mineral--mixture-,-has:
proved to be a satisfactory sou re
of concentrated protein and gave
practically the same n ?uh> as ani
mal proteins Other feeding tests
