However, as already stated, with the recent development
 of the industry to recover fixed nitrogen from air,
sulphate of ammonia is commanding greater demand, and
the position of Bean Cake on the fertilizer market of Japan
seems over-shadowed with a gloom.

(2) Bran Caxe as Carre FEED

As cattle-feed, Bean Cake equals cotton-seed cake and
peanut cake in both digestibility and the protein amount,
surpassing all other kinds of oil residues as an excellent
rich cattle-feed. It causes no harmful reaction on the
domestic animals, as the case often is among various oil
residues. In consequence, in Manchuria and China, it has
been in use as superior cattle-feed from early times. As
already mentioned, most part of Manchurian Bean Cake
in Japan is employed as nitrogen manure, but the prospect
of its successful competition with sulphate of ammonia in
the future being not quite reassuring, it is thought the
more advisable to enlarge its utility as cattle-feed, as its
chemical ingredients highly commend it.

At present, the residue of Manchurian Beans that are

exported to Europe and America and have the oil contents
expressed or extracted are employed as cattle feed and not
as fertilizer as the case is in Japan.
Of the Bean residues put out in Manchuria, Bean
