to remain on the Pullman cars and tho
steamboats nnd ocean liners which
take them to the convention city.
Mr. Steger has obtained a hotel rate

HAVE ARMY ON SHORT NOTICE
Government Could Provide Ample Mil
Itary Protection In Any Emer
gency, Pershing Says.
An army largo enough to guard
every Important brldgo and railway
terminal, all Important Industries and
coal mines, us well ns governmental
buildings, could be placed In the field
on short notice by the United States
government, Gen. John J. Pershing de
clared In a statement recently Issued,
telling what could be done If this
country were Invaded.
Eighteen regular war strength In
fantry divisions of reserves, composed
of 000,000 men, an expanded National
Guard with 000,000 men and regular
priny units, augmented by volunteers
to approximately 175,000 men, could
to made quickly avallublo, the gen
eral sal'd.
"The natlonnl defense net of 1020,"
Tershlng's statement declnred, "pro
ecrlbed that 'the organized peace es
tablishment, Including the regular
nrmy, the National Guard and tho or
ganized reserves, shnll Include all of
those divisions and other military or
ganizations necessnry to form the
basis of a complete and Immediate
mobilization for the national defense
in the event of n national emergeucy
Vecla,red by congress.'
"Tho evident Intent," tho statement
continues, "Is that tho system of na
tional defenso shall bo definitely or
ganized, that the military units re
quired for service In any emergency
shall bo constituted li time of peace,
and that euch of them shall bo pre
pared to undertako its Initial mission
In time to meet the requirements of
the situation." .
HOMESICK FOR THE ARMY
Ah Han Kook, Korean With Honor
able Record In tho U. 8. A.,
Returnt to tha Service.
Itorn In Korea, taken to Hawaii
when a child, without any trnco of
relatives, an hon
orable record In
the United States
army behind him,
Ah ITun Kook, a
llttlo brown man,
called at tho
American Legion
headquarters In
Indianapolis t h a
other day and de
clared his Inten
tion of "going
back home" to thu
army.
"I was n dental ofilcer's assistant In
San Francisco," Kook, private first
class and specialist fourth class, medi
cal department, said, producing an
honorable discharge to prove It. "Tho
olllcer was Dr. II. C. Foylcr, now of
822 Gay street, Portsmouth, O. lie
asked me tn come to see him vhen I
got out of the army, lie Is In private
practice now. So when my enlistment
expired In San Francisco, I got on n
train and went to Portsmouth. Tho
ofllcer said he would like to have mo
work for him. He treated me very
good and I had a pleasant visit with
him, but I got homesick. The nrmy Is
the only home I know. I am a mem
ber of the American Legion, Sehoflehl
Uarracks, II. T., post No. 0, and I
heard a lot about Legion headquar
ters In Indianapolis, so I thought I
would like to see them."
Kook was shown nbout the ofllces
at Legion headquarters and the vari
ous phases of the work explained to
him. Then this little brown man, now
an American citizen, who first entered
military service In the National Guard
nt Hawaii In August, 1017, nnd con
tinued the service through the na
tional army and the regulars until
May 20, 1022, departed for Fort Ken
jamln Harrison, at Indianapolis, to re
enlist. "Sure, ho wns homesick for tho
nrmy," tho recruiting ofllcer nt tho
fort said later over the telephone.
"We welcome him back."
WOULD BE SECOND TO NONE
James Shelley, Phoenix, Sent to
West Point, Wishes to Be
First-Class Officer.
President Harding has appointed
nnother World war veteran to West
Point. James Shel
ley of Phoenix,
Ariz., told n
"white lie" and

He served nine
months overseas
with tho artillery.
He Is now n
"plebo" at the
academy w here
after four years'
hard work ho will
be graduated a second lleutennnt.
The stuff that Is Shelley's and
which mndc him enlist when under
age evidenced Itself when he an
swered tho telegram ot West Point
olllclnls who nsked: "What Is your
nmbltlon?" Shelley hnd to make his
answer In seven words, but It was to
the point. He said: "I wnnt to bo

FOR LEGION POST IN KOREA
Application for Charter Is Made to
the Legion's National Organi
zation Department.
An application has just been re
ceived for a charter fo an American
Legion post In Korea by the Legion's
natlonnl organization department In
Indlnnnpolls. There ore 15 persons
eligible foe membership In Korea nnd
tho application bears tho names of
those 15 persons. Tho locnl post will
have Its headquarters at Kwnngju,
Chosen. The post In Korea Is being
organized by M. L. Swlnchenrt, treas
urer of the South Presbyterian mis
sion In thnt country. In his letter
necompnnylng tho application for a
charter, Mr. Swlnehnrt said: "Please
have the application ncted upon as
quickly as posslblo as wo have good
reason fur wanting to get busy nnd
get tho post organized Into u going
concern."
It Is unfortunate thnt somo World
war veterans In tho United States,
where It Is harder to stay out of the
Legion than It Is to get Into It, don't
get some of this enthusiasm mani
fested by their crstwhllo comrades In
arms In fnr away Korea.

SOY BEANS TAKE
PLACE OF OATS
Production of Seed During Past
Few Years in Corn Belt Has
Become Profitable.
SEEKING COMMERCIAL OUTLET
Possibilities of Utilizing Crop for Oil
and Meal Had Much to Do With
Increased Acreage Grower
Afforded Cash Crop.
(Prepared by the United States Department
ot Agriculture)
The soy bean Is rapidly taking n
place ns o major crop In tho farming
systems of the corn belt, replacing
onts to a considerable extent and tak
ing part of the corn acreage. Al
though primarily used for forage, pas
ture and ensilage, the growing of seed
during the Inst few years has been n
very profitable Industry. The produc
tion of seed hns now Increased to the
point where tho supply greatly exceeds
the demands for planting.
Seek Commercial Outlet.
County soy-bean associations, grow
era, county agents nnd extension olll
clals, notably In Illinois and Imllunn,
hnvc concerned themselves In the de
velopment of n commercial outlet of
tho seed. As n result, the production
of oil and me.nl from corn belt grown
soy beans seems to bo definitely as
sured for tho Reason of 1022. Several
mills in Indiana and Illinois have be
come Interested In the possibilities of
the soy benn ag source of oil and menl.
Two mills In Illinois have planned to
use about 750,000 bushels this season,
while other mills are planning on a
smaller scale.
Although definite figures are not
available on the ncreuge of soy beans
In the vnrlous states, reports to the
United States Itepnrtment of Agricul
ture Indicate wy largo Increases In
acreage for seed production nnd for
age purposes throughout the northern
nnd corn belt states. The possibilities
of utilizing domestic grown benns for
oil nnd meal no doubt had much to do

with tho large Increase In noreagc for
seed. Such n commercial outlet af
fords the grower another cash crop
as corn anil whent.
Ready Market Indicated.
The various ways In which the soy
bean and its prodncts are utilized In
tho United Stntes Indicate a ready
market for the commercial produc
tion of soy-benn seed. Soy-bean oil Is
largoly used In tho mnnufneturo of
soups and paints, and It Is alio used
In the manufacture of Inrd nnd butter
.substitutes, rubber substitutes, linol
eum, printing Ink, and as a salad nil.
Tho cake or meal Is n superior cattle
feed and of high vulue for human con
sumption. HOGGING OFF CORN AND PEAS
Mixture Makes Reasonably Good Bal
anced Ration and Animals
Thrive Well on It.
In hogging off corn nnd cowpens,
the pigs and hogs eat the benns only,
nnd not tho vines nnd foliage. This
legume seed Is relatively high In pro
tein, balancing tho stnrchy corn. The
mixture makes a reasonably good bal
anced ration; the hogs grow on It nnd
gain In both flesh und fat; and thero
Is more of the mixed feed thun with
corn alone.
FEED-FARMING IS IMPORTANT
Department of Agriculture Hps Estab

It Exclusively.
Owing to the Importance of feed
farming Industry, the United States
Department of Agriculture has estab
lished a project which deals with It
exclusively. It furnishes Information
to prospective breeders, as well as to
thoso already engaged In the Industry,
which helps them to overcome ob
stacles and avoid pitfalls.

BABY BEEF VERY PROFITABLE
Production Can Be Made on Land
Worth Not More Than $150 Per
Acre Always "Toppers."
Unby beef production can bo mndc
most profitable on lnnd worth not
more than .$150 nn acre, of which at
least 50 per cent Is easily cultivated,
says W, II. Peters, acting chief of the
nnlmnl husbandry division of the Uni-1
verslty of Minnesota. Uy baby beef
production, he says, is meant tho
growing, fattening nnd marketing of
beef calves at ages ranging from 12
to 24 months, 10 to 18 months being
the most economical at which to sell.
"Willi sufficient fat on them when
placed on tho murker, baby beeves
are nlwoys market toppers," Professor
Peters says. "Uaby beef production al
lows raising of more calves on tho

Standard-bred Is n term which Is
