SOY BEANS IN INDIANA By George FoIIcUe, of Indiana, in Orange Judd Farmer, As a-result of my experiments with soy beans, I am convinced that they can be made a paying crop for the farmer living in the corn belt. I have counted as high as 214 pods on one plant and believe they will give an average yield of 40 bushels per acre on good soil under favorable climatic conditions and good culture. The department of agriculture claims that if the conditions are very favorable the yield may reach 100 bushels, but on the other hand drouth and poor soil may reduce the yield to 15 bushels. While the soy bean is possessed of excellent drouth resisting qualities it seems to be able to survive a period of excessive moisture better than the cow pea. The upright bushy habit of growth gives it a great advantage over the cow pea during wet weather, and makes it easier to handle at harvest time. The bean should be planted in late spring or early summer, after the ground hns become warm, although the young plant will stand a light frost. The early varieties should be used if a seed crop is desired. No other crop is so easily grown or can be used to such good advantage in compounding rations as the soy bean. Excepting the peanut no other raw vegetable product known contains such a high percentage of protein and fat m such a highly digestible form. For feeding animals the beans should be ground and the meal used with some less concentrated feeding stuffs. An average American analysis shows that bean meal contains 34 per cent of protein, 17 of fat and 22.8 of carbohydrates. The percentage of digestibility is high. In 100 pounds ef soy bean seed there are 10.8 pounds water and 66.8 pounds digestible material, consisting of 29.6 pounds fat, 2.6 pounds of fibre, 17.6 pounds carbohydrates and one pound of ash, with a nutritive ratio of about 1 to 1.3. They are almost as rich in crude protein as the best cottonseed meal, with a higher percentage of fat. They contain three times as much crude protein and nearly 3 J times as much fat as oats, nearly 3 J times as much protein and about three times ias much fat as corn, and almost twice as much protein and over 12 times as much fat as peas. All of this shows them to be one of the mast concentrated of feeding stuffs. The soy bean is one of the most premising of the annual. leguminous for, age crops, and as before Indicated, may prove of special value in connection with Indian corn, the latter supplying the roughness, the soy bean producing the digestible crude protein necessary to make a complete and well balanced ration. The soy bean is sold, under several names German coffee berry, domestic coffee berry and soja bean.

STATE SOLDIERS' HOME

Annual Report ot the Institution at Lafayette. The changes in the board of trustees of the Indiana State Soldiers' Home was the first subject discussed in the annual report of that institution presented to Governor Durbin. Colonel Foster and Captain Mnrphy retired and Capt. Alexander N. Scctt, of Ladoga, and Capt Louis B. Fulweiler, of Peru, were appointed to succeed them. ColvJohn Levering died and was succeeded by W. S. Haggard. The report is a complete one, showing the receipts and expenditures, names of members, pension account, etc. The surgeon's report showed that there were, during the year, 998 sick visits and 5,680 consultations at sick calls, 9,600 prescriptions filled, 148 surgical operations; 6,036 surgical dressings and treatments. In the deaths there were twenty-seven men and eleven women. The mortality approximated 7 per cent. At the end of the fiscal year, Oct. 31, there were 694 members of the home, with seventy-five on the waiting list. The membership was divided into 409 men and 285 women. The average age of the men was sixtyfive years and the women sixty years. Of the women eighty-three were wid ows of soldiers and 195 wives of sold iers, while seven were deserted wives. The oldest member of the home was was eighty-seven and the youngest (of civil-war veterans) fifty-five years. There are several young soldiers of the Spanish-American war at the home. The report says that the total re ceipts were $86,281.42. The state does not bear the total expense of the institution, as the state fixes only a monthly per capita tax equal to $12.50 for each member, officer and employe of the home. The total received from the auditor of state for the maintenance of the home was $80,928.33, including $2,100 for salaries for the commandant and adjutant. The average per day was $539.52. The other receipts, including cash on hand, amount derived from pension fund, etc., amounted to $4,944.69. This amount went into the maintenance fund of the home and helped to that extent to meet the expenses. The other receipts amounted to $358.40. This amount has been paid to the state treasurer and goes to the state. The cost for the maintenance of the home for the year ending Oct, 31 was $86,231.42, less $941.01, amount turned over to the state and cash balance received from pensions, leaving a balance of $85,290.40. The state was reimbursed by $7,955.18 received from the United States government and $230.95 received from the earnings of the home, a total of $28,186.13. Deducting from the total amount paid oy the state, $80,928.33, the amount refunded, $28,186.13, the remainder, which is $52,742.20, is the exact cost to the state for the salaries of the commandant and adjutant, and the maintenance for the year. The per capita cost for maintenance was $158. 08. The actual per capita cost to the state was $97.75. The report calls attention to the fact that all repairs, new machinery, expense for burials, all fuel, etc., must come from the maintenance fund. The home paid during the year fur repairs and improvements $8,238.27. The report says that there are only two states out of twenty-six that have j a lower per capita expense than In diana, and in those two states the wives and widows of veterans are not received. Ministers Unite. Tell of Magic Results Brought About in Burning, Itching, Bleeding Skin Troubles by Dr. A. W. Chase's Ointment. Dr. Chase's Ointment draws more praise from ministers, physicians and lawyers than any other medicine in the world. It is endorsed by erery profession. Extracts from their Letters. Rev. W. N. Edwards, Baptist minister, X09 Trinity Plaee, Buffalo, N. Y writes : " For over fifteen years the itching piles hare been a source of constant annoyance to to me and frequently, too, the suffering has become intense. At times there was bleed ing and the itching and burning was beyond endurance. The results I have denved from Dr. Chase's Ointment have been magical and the benefits lasting. I feel it a duty to fellow sufferers to recommend it. Rer. J. N. Van Natter, Methodist minister, Albion, Wis., writes : " My wife was terribly a:7icted with protrading piles and contemplated a surgical operation when her notice was drawn to Dr. Chase's Ointment, and less than one box effected a cure." " I then used it for an unsightly and troublesome skin affection, which baffled medical skill for twenty-fire years. Dr. Chase's Ointment thoroughly cured it. For piles and skin disease it is worth its weight in gold." Rev. Chas. Fish, Methodist minister, xga Dunn avenue, Toronto, Ont., writes : " Ten years ago eczema began on my ears and spread over my head and hands. During that time I was a great sufferer. I tried many remedies and some of the best physicians specialists on skin diseasestreated me. The first box of Dr. Chase's Ointment gave much relief and f.ve boxea completely cured me. I think my cure a marvel, and gladly recommend Dr. Chase's Ointment." Just as good for every form of skia trotible, no matter how long standing. 50 cents a box all dealers or Dr. A. W.

HERE are two values to every purchase

what it costs and what- it pays you. Cork costs 8 cents a pound, but if you are drowning half a mile from shore, its value would

be "not what you pay for cork, but what cork saves you." When a woman buys soaps she often confuses the two values. She sees only what she pays. She overlooks what she receives. Now a single cake of Ivory Soap pays back from ten to twenty times its cost in the saving it effects. Test it yourself I Vegetable Oil Soap. Ivory white. It floats 1

Odd Habiliments. Men in skirts, and short ones at that, hardly reaching to their knees, can be seen along the Pan Handle railroad improvements in Marion daily. These men skirtwearers are Greeks employed on the ran Handle grades and are a few who have just come from their native country and have not leanred to adopt the pants worn in this land. With the short skirts and queer vest-like garments they use for shirt and coat they make an odd picture. Slaughtering at the Poor Farm. The butchering season at the county infirmary closed this forenoon with a record of twenty-one hogs sacrificed to the necessities of human appetite. The work began last Tuesday and for four days the place has looked like a section of Armour's packing house. Superintendent Kruyer has laid away 800 pounds of lard and 550 pounds of elegant country sausage. QHlCÖfiOfl yzr üuuvyw gives out before the other

tired and aches terribly after a day's work or night's pleasure. A tired, weak back pulls a person right down and renders life miserable. The kidneys are often supposed to be the cause,

but usually the muscles and dons in the back have been strained. Omega Oil is the proper and only permanent reme dy. Rub it into the pores of the back, and a feeling of renewed strength and vigor will come immediately, and a few such treatments will fix you up all right again. Omega Oil takes out soreness and inflammation. It invigorates and freshens all the muscular tissues. It contains ingredients that you never used before. 7e2

Wanatah Bank Closed. The private hank of Julius Conitz at Wanatah has closed its doors. Mr. ! Conitz was unable to withstand the run on the bank. Sine the attempted robbery a few weeks ago the depositors have been very scarce. The assets are $91,000, of which $40,000 is in railroad bonds. The liabilities are $49,000, of which $20,000 is due Wanatah people. The failure was occasioned by Conitz being unr.ble to negotiate the railroad bonis, they being issued by a Michigan road in which he was interested. Thursday Mr. Conitz issued a statement to the depositors that he would pay all claims in full. The closing of the bank created a great deal of excitement in Wanatah.
