dwell Concludes Series Discussions On Soybeans By Guy A. Cardwell is the fifth and last ar ticle in the series continuing information from the Salute To the “Wonder Bean” article in iConsumer’s Guide, April 20th, How good a job is done by soybeans in improving the soil depends on the inoculaton ol the plants, how much of the crop i4 returned to the soil, and the effect of the roots on the mechanical condition of the soil. 9 To do the best work as a soil builder soybeans must be plow ed under. When the AAA clas sified crops for the 1936 soil conservation program, it pul soybeans under the “soil-build ing” class, for which special payments are to be made, on I ly ^hen they are turned undei ■ for green manure. When th* beans are harvested for grain so that the seeds can be used for human feed or for indus trial purposes, or for hay—foi animal feed—then soybeans are classed as a “soil-depleting” crop, with two exceptions. In the South, where farmers more frequently plant soybeans be tween rows of other crops to graze them off, soybeans are a “soil-depleting” crop only if they are harvested for crush ing^. In other cases in the Soutn and in some East-Central States they can be counted “soil-conserving” or “soil-build ing”, depending upon the hand lingcof the crop. Production of soybeans has been leaping ahead on the farms of this country. Fifteen years ago it is doubtful if 50,000 far mers had ever grown as much as an acre in a separate crop. In 1935 more than 600,000 far mers were in the business of producting this bean. Less than 500,000 acres were grown in the United States prior to 1917. Lafftwear close to 5 1-2 million acngt were planted; encourag ed*fn part by the drought and in part by AAA. Soybeans on about half of these acres were harvested for beans or used for gmping; on the other half they were used for hay or silage, or were turned under for soil impovement. Production of the beans in 1925 was only 5 million bushels. The 1935 crop was more than 40 million bu shels. Increases in production are coining along at such a pace that science has had a new job laid at its doors—the job of helping industry and consum ers to keep pace with the out put of soybeans. Last month the United States Department ' o|l Agriculturue and 12 North : Central States opened a cooper ative soybean industrial re search laboratory at Urbana, 111., to find new industrial uses and improve present known usee, to test for the best vari eties for industrial uses. At present some 35 soybean mills and a number of cottonseed oil mills are crushing soybeans for oil and oil meal; 20 concerns are manufacturing soybean feed products; 15 mills are making soybean flour, and more than 50 factories are turning out various industrial products. I Recipes for curious consum ers who are unfamiliar with this product have been publish ed by the Bureau of Home Ec onomics of the Department of Agriculture in a mimeographed bulletin, “Soybeans and Soy bean Products for Table Use,” which will be sent free to any one addressing that Bureau. Another good source of general information is “Soybean Util ization”, Farmers’ Bulletin No. 1617, which can be bought for five cents from the Superinten dent of Documents, Washing ton, D. C.

McGOWAN, County Accountant Return* To* Farm Movement Shown Countryward Migration Com' posed Largely of Unemploy ed Families Almost 2 million of the per sons on farms on January 1, 1935 lived in cities, towns, vil lages, or other nonfarm resi dences five years earlier, ac cording to a U. S. summary of the 1935 Federal Farm Census. The full extent of this move ment to farms, the beginning of which was shown in the Census of 1930 is not disclosed by these figures, as the farm census re port was limited to only those persons living on farms on Jan uary 1, 1935 who lived in non farm residences five years ear lier. Between 1930 and 1935, many others may have moved to farms and had returned to ci ties, towns, villages, or other nonfarm residences before the farm census enumeration on January 1, 1935. inis movement oi i,99t>,Z03 persons to farms during the preceeding five years was a ma jor factor in making the farm population of January 1, 1935 the largest ever recorded by a census. So extensive was the movement to farms that 1 out of every 16 persons living on farms January 1, 1935 had liv ed in cities, towns, or other nonfarm residences 5 years earlier. Most of this flow of persons back to the farms represents the countryward migration ol the unemployed and others un able to obtain work in factor ies, mines, lumber mills, etc., to escape idleness, reduce expen ses, and to raise food for fam ily use. The average of 3 per sons per farm reporting this movement, and the increase of over a half million farms since 1930, suggest that this has been largely a movement oi whole families rather than the migration of single individuals. These families have returned to farms once abandoned, to new farms and to unoccupied farms operated by their relatives and friends. i Not all of these newcomers have been employed nor have all remained unemployed. In many areas, thousands have en gaged in part-time farming and have supplemented their urban, or industrial income with rural living. Improved roads, reduced transportation charges, and cheaper living in the country than in the city have brought thousands of fam ilies back to the land to live and have been factors in hold ing them there. Most of this migration of families has been to small farms. There, these families have sought to produce at least part of the food, particularly vegetables, eggs, and milk need ed for their own use. These families have probably aug mented very little the total pro duction of farm products for sale. This movement has been largely a migration of white persons to farms. The decline j of almost 200,000 in the nation’s 'colored farm population indi cates that the net flow of color led persons has been from1 j farms to nonfarm residences rather than from cities and 1 towns to farms. On the basis of changes in the tenure of farm operations in the areas to which the farm ward movement has been great est, a majority of the families i have returned to farms which I they own rather than to farms which they rent. This has been an important factor in (bringing about an increase of over 300,000 in the number of farms operated by owners. j Husband away—but a man’s shirts on her clothes-line.
