The Soybean Industry: A Selected List of References on the Economic Aspects of the Industry in the United States, 1900-1938

Excerpts from the Foreword: This bibliography contains references to material published on the economic aspects of the soybean industry in the United States, from 1900 through June 1938. References have been included to material dealing with the utilization of the soybean in industry, in agriculture, and in nutrition; with the cost of production, harvesting, storing, marketing, and grading; and with the oil, protein and moisture content of the bean. References on the botany, chemistry and culture of soybeans and on varieties have been omitted except where they have appeared incidentally with other material. Recipes, where food value is not a part of the content; articles on processing methods and refining of soybean oil and the factors affecting them have also been omitted. Works in foreign languages and works published abroad have not been included except where the material relates to the industry in the United States. A list of patents relating to soybean products and processes has been included. This list is as comprehensive as it was possible to make it from a search made in the U. S. Patent Office under Soybeans and related headings.
