For a great many years the farmers there have grown them for pasturage for hogs and cattle, and sometimes to cut for hay; hut only within the last few years have their great possibilities been recognized as a money crop of great importance. From the 1915 crop of Soy beans in North Carolina more than 230,000 bushels were crushed in the oil mills nf th:it Stafp Hurlnu Hiu present year it is estimated that some 500,000 bushels have been sold into various sections of the South and Southwest for planting purposes. 5o great has the demand been for Soy beans this season for planting that the price has steadily advanced from about $1.50 per bushel to more than F3.00. In addition to the bean being a (ligh oily-yielding seed, the meal, or residue after the oil has been expressed is a highly concentrated feed ind can be compared in this section :o cotton seed meal only.
