A A large acreage ol soybeans this year and many farmers urowing them Cor the first time make a few suggestions on cutting and curing the crop very timely. Soybenns may be cut at any time between blossoming and the stage when the beans begin to swell in the pod. according to State College crop specialists.

The tonnage will increase somewhat up to the latter stage, but after it is reached, not only do the leaves begin to drop off, but it is almost impossible to get the beans in the pods, dry, consequently molding is very common. Furthermore the later the beans are left the poorer ordinarily will be the drying weather; the days are shorter and dews heavier. Wheat folliwing soybeans will be better if the beans are olf some time before the wheat must be sown, and a late bean harvest conflicts with other fall work. The leaves are the valuable part of soybean hay. These leaves become very brittle when dried.

If left too long in the swath most of the leaves may be thrashed off and lost. The best plan is to rake into windrows, preferably with a side delivery rake, as soon as the crop is well wilted by about one day sunshine. Some farmers leave beans in the windrow until dry, possibly turning them once or twice if necessary. Others put up in small cocks for the final drying. It often takes a week or more to get all the moisture out of the stems and make the crop safe to store.

Rain does not seem to injure soybeans nearly as much as much as other hay and even when disclored somewhat, they still make fair feed. It may be well to shake out heavy crops of beans with a tedder if it is done soon after cutting. A rather long stubble holds the beans off the ground and promotes better drying. The lower part of the stems left in long stubble has little feeding value. Some farmers report advantageously on removing the dividing board and other attachments when cutting beans which are not tangled.

This avoids the piling up of the beans in the swath and allows better and more even drying.

Deadly Bowie Knife The bowie knife is named for Col.

Since knues quite similar in design were in nse in Mexico it Is probable that the dea was pained from them. gat Fish for Iodine Lack ot iodine In the system of those living In Inland sections of the ccrratry" makes them more subject to gaiter than those who live near the gca. As seafood contains Iodine doctors are advising people In the moun- tnlnous and Inlnnd sections to eat more fish with the result that the demand for rnnnccl flsli nnd oysters is jrrrminK rapidly throughout the middle etntet. The Weekly Health Talk of the Pennsylvania State Department of Health has been prepared this week by Dr. H.

B. Wood, of the Communicable Disease Division. Dr. Wood says: other day a highly respectable citizen, walking down street with a friend, pointed to a man whom he derisively designated as a drug fiend. However, in his sense of superiority he was entirely oblivious to the fact that he himself was a drug addict.

This gave an opportunity politely to draw attention to his own shortcoming, though it must be confessed that he was amazed when charged with being a 'drug fiend His particular addiction was not morphine, heroin or cocaine, as was the other's, but an accepted drug used daily by millions of people throughout the world, namely, coffee. "Each cup of properly brewed coffee contains as much or more caffine as a doctor would prescribe for a patient needing it, and he would prescribe it only for a limited period. It does not take a very astute math- emetician to figure the amount of caifine which this particular gentleman was taking into his system daily when one is informed that he drank two cups of coffee at each meal, at least one cup in the middle of the afternoon and a final cup about 9 o'clock in the evening. "This superior person today is highly nervous, frequently quite irritable, complains of sleeplessness but remains a slave to the drug caff- ine nevertheless. "There are people to whom coffee acts as a mild and apparently harmless stimulant when taken in moderation.

But there are thousands of others, who while comprising the minority of coffee drinkers, are actually harmed by their habitually excessive use ot it. The fact that coffee is the one universal drug accepted by civilization the world over is alter all no valid excuse for any iiidnidual becoming addicted to it and thereby undermining his or her health. "The coffee problem, however, is a personal one Its use must be based upon the reactions which the i a oxpeiU-nces when drinking it. "Broadly stated however, coffee is not and used 10 excess it can do a harm What is rolt'ec' doing to Are you its slave? II so, you too arc a fiend and it is time to quit its use Don't let the hitlo bean shackle you too tightly. It is just possible? this one habit if eliminated will change you from an irritable, nervous, fifty percent efficient individual to a supremely healthy one Face the colfce problem squarely and deal with it honestly.

It may mean a longer and happier life." ilUli Summer Herd on Paint Careful government experiments ave determined that exterior paint ears most rapidly in summer. IMM Wasted Energy The instruction of the foolish is a waste of knowledge; soap cannot wash charcoal Better than Ever Following their traditional policy of constant improvement with no yearly models, Dodge Brothers, during the past eight months, have vastly bettered their motor cars in many vital respects. Indeed, there has never been an equal period in Dodge. Brothers history when so many refinements of a popular and fundamental nature have been made. The public is registering its appreciation of this progressive industrial service by purchasing every motor car Dodge Brothers can build--in spite of the fact that Dodge Brothers production, during these months, has broken all previous records by an impressive margin.

While this is a decrease of 215,000 tons, or 1.9 per cent, from i the revised estimates ot the preced- ing week's bituminous production, the Bureau of Mines points out that it is still higher than the output of any other week since February. Total production of bituminous in August, the Bureau of Mines reports is estimated, subject to revision, al 4 6 3 4 7 0 0 0 tons, an increase of 2,875,000 tons, or 6.6 per cent, over July production. Anthracite production during the week ended September 4 is estimated by the bureau at 1,951,000 net tons, a decline of 48,000 tons, or 2.4 per cent from the output of the preceding week. Total production during August, it is estimated, subject to revision, was 8,225,000 tons, as compared with 8,429,000 tons in July.

yo'ar Savings BEDFORD, FA. The Old Reliable NUMBER OF INDIANS FOUND INCREASING The Indian race is no longer a vanishing one, for the records of the Department of the Interior show approximately 350,000 of them in the United States, a four and one-half per cent increase during the past decade, Charles H. Burke, Commissioner of Indian affairs, said in an oral statement on September 10. "I know," he said, "of no dependent people in the world's history who have made more rapid progress during the last 50 years than the American Indian. I know of no Government during that time that has been more generous or more faithful to its trust than has our Government toward the American Indian.

"Congress has approved since for the support, education and zation of the Indians, $460,000,0050. As a result of this generosity by our Government, the Indians today are an economic, artistic and intellectual asset to our naional life. iWSPAPfc.RI.
