IHE Peanut IEApG og the NTTEu sfAhs--
Although, a. a rule, some branches OF the
retail trade in peanuts are not considered
very exalted. the business in is aggregate l.
quite important. The peanut is not IL nut
in the ordinary sense Of the term. Ii l. q
tuber. growing in the ground Ike potatoes,
the tops somewhat resembling clover, and
considered good feed for cattle. A the
South the natives call the peanuts 'goobers.
When first introduced into this country from
Africa, peanuts were grown mostly in Virgil
MIA and North Carolina hut of late years
they have been grown more and more ex-
extensively in Tennessee, until now that
State produces nearly three-fiths OF the total
amount grown in the two States first named
The crop of the past year in Tennessee Is
placed at l75,0 600 bushels. Virginia is
credited with producing 22j 900 bushels.
while North Carolina returns only oo.UOO
bushels,-a total Of 10000 bushels. The
/ average planted in Virginia, North Carolina
| ami Tennessee the present year is very large,
hut the widespread and long-continucd
| drought Of the past INNER. cannot but So
riou>ly affect the yield. Notwithstanding
/ this. however. it is estimated that Virginia
will Weld this year $50, 600 bushels. Ten
nessce 80 eco. and North Carolina 100000
bashels-a total of 30, 600 bushels in all
The imports of African peanuts since the
first of January, 1874. amount to l25,OGt
bushels, making the total supply for th'
present year 5S5 900 bushels. 1t Is fair It
assume from these statistics, that If the rati.
of increase in production continues, we shall
