Tho peanut is a useful product

ly it is oaton in its roasted state, but
therein by no means los tho cxtont of

5oper cent. of a noarly colorloss, bland,
fixed oil, resembling olive oil and used
Tor similar purposes. Tho best is OBJ

quantity of inferior oil is procured by
heating tho seeds before pressing. It
is non-drying oil, changing but slow

Warfare Against Fence Jumpers.

W "a u <hSuhhbt FthOc bumpers.
A farmer who has had trouble with
jumping fenccs," as no forms 1t, saws
he stopped it by mailing hors oshoo on
each front foot OF tho COW or stoor.
But no should have been more explicit.
Jumping fences arc a great nuisance on
farm, and it seems to mo that we'll.
sot post and rail fence won't jump very
high. When tho earthquake happened
about two years ago all of my fences
runnin 6 cast and wcst jumped SO as to
throw the corners all AWAY aud leave
most OF the top rails on tho tops of tho
stakes. and many wOro thrown off
But this WAS not an ordinary kind of
jumping fouce. Those who arc troub .
led with tho common kind mig ht try
tho horseshoe plan.
What is the best fcnccf havo lone
sought to find this out aud have tried
tho old fashioned worm fonco, stakcd,
doublc-stalkcd and ridcred; tho post
and board fence, and tho post and rail
icrce, with morticcd posts and rails
fl ittcacd aud pointed at tho end. 1
have some miles of fcnco on my farm
and have constant trouble with the
fences, all but about half milo of solid
post and rail feuco, made of chestnut
posts and five rails to each panel. Tho
rails arc 10 foot long. This fcnce
stands firmly: the heaviest winds do
not move it; no cattlo or horses try to
jump it, it being five feet high; and
from former experience, dating back 80
years, l know such foncs will last as
long Us this, if properly made. 1t is
cheap Tho posts nrc split saplings
about 10 years old and eight inches
on tho split face. Tho holes aro
bored with boring machine and 2-inch
nusur, two holes being mado five inch
cs apart from outer cd ;os and tho wood
between them is cut out with a post
axe having biado two inches wide.
Two mon will hole 100 posts day and
will set up the 100 panels of fonco in
thrco days, costing thus seven ceuts a
panel for setting tho fence. And when
it is set it is set for years without nocd
for repair or almost daily watching and
putting up as with the common rail
foncc.
Tho best thing to do with Jumping
and broachy animals is to havo good
fences, so that whom they are young
tho animals will not learn to jump or
throw down tho fences. Bad fences
