SOYBEAN GRADING STANDARDS REVISED A revision iu the standards in the grade of soybeans, to become effective September 1, 1949, has been announced by F. E. Robbins, asstKiate professor of crop production in the Purdue University School of Agriculture, who is also a licensed grain inspector. The new revision will effect grain elevator operators and Indiana farmers who will, harvest more than one and onehalf million aerwu of soybeans this year. Under the new standards, both dockage and foreign material in the soybeans will be combined under one specification and will me called “foreign material.” This ruling will eliminate dockage entirely. Prof Robbins will conduct eight grain grading schools throughout Indiana during August and September to explain the new standards to grain elevator operators and farm leaders. ROUGHAGE C IRCULAR FOR FARMERS, DAIRYMEN Farmers and dairymen who are alert to cutting feed cost? through feeding quality roughages my find such suggestions

in the new Purdue University circular, "Plan the Dairy Program Around Quality Roughiges.” The circular outlines a roughages program for feeding dairy cows that eliminates much feeding of grain. The authors show what can be done by making various roughages the staple ! diet of the dairy cows. Application of principles dis- ^ cussed in the circular should aid ! Indiana milk producers in setting up a roughage plan adapable to their different feeding requirements. The dairy roughage circular may be obtained from county agents or from the Purdue Ag:<cultural Experiment Station. Lnfayette, Indiana.
