cordially and with open arms. Where in
ice-bound New England you had only a
few short months tocultivate yourcrops,
you will find in the South eight and nine
months and in some portions OF it twelve
months in the year, that you can devote
to the business of producing. If you
made a living in New England by farm
ing, where it was possible to work for
only five or six months out of the twelve,
it certainly seems as ifyou could do more
than this in the South where the con-
ditions are all as favorable and where
you can work the year round.

How to Raise Peanuts.

For the benefit of those of oursubscrib-
ers who are ignorant of the methods en-
ployed in the production OF the peanut,
we clip the following from ''Wickson's
California Fruits Peanuts grow as well
in Middle and West Florida as in Vir-
ginia and Tennessee, but are not so pro-
ductive in South Florida, still they can be
made to produce fairly well. Each grove
owner and farmer might at least have a
small patch for the children il for nOthing
else. Mr.. Wickson says:
Procure raw peanuts plump and well
filed, plant in the month of March, in
well prepared ground, three or four ker-
nels in each hill, the hills about two feet
apart in the row and the rows three to
four feet apart. The depth of burying
the seed is from two to four inches, de-
pending upon the soil, the lighter and
drier the deeper it is covered. Cultivation
must be given to weeds and retain moist
ure but care must be taken not to tear
out the fruiting stems which enter the
soil after the blossom is fertilized and
there form the fruit This underground
fruiting is, of course facilitated by mel
lowness of the surface.
The manner of cultivation of the pea
nut depends upon the habit of growth of
the variety planted if bushy, the soil
should be thrown up around the plants
while in bloom by a light iurrow turned
up on each side of the row; if of vine like
habit, it should be given fiat culture and
no billing. Throwing earth upon the top
of the plant is unnecessary.
Peanuts planted in March usuallyripen
in September or October. The soils and
plants are loosened by running a furrow
on each side of the row with bull tongue
pillow, and then taking out plants with
light hoe or spading fork, the nuts ad-
herring to the stems. Nuts are allowed to
dry in the sun and are then picked off by
hand, though in growing on a large scale
proper threshing machinery can be used.

Products of the Orange Grove.

where in this issue there is an idea that is
worthy of more than a passing notice,
to-wit: the prevention of overproduction
by the manufacture of the surplus Gf
surplus there beg into articles of COM
mercial value. This of course could be
our resort in time of gluts or unusual
depressiOns. Besides the very fine quality
of wine which it is possible to make from
the sweet orange, there are numerous
other articles that can be manufactured
that always command ready sale and
good prices in the market.
The following extract on this subject
we take from the Rural Californian. 1t
is possible that it has been published
before in our columns, but it is worthy
of reproduction:
AS consulting chemist, says George
Cirouschoff de Leasing, [ was asked
recently what can be obtained from the
orange plantation besides the fruit? The
question in our country is one of great
Importance and it brings before US the
necessity of manufacturing on the
orange plantation with the raw fruits.
Till now nothing has been done only the
gathering and selling of fruits. At pres
ent the prices are very low, for only last
week 100 oranges could be purchased for
the small sum of twenty-five cents. Dur
ing my sojourn in the south part of Italy
and France | had ample opportunities
to learn the different processes used in
the orange plantations, and my answer
was as follows:
1-Extracting, by pressure, orange
peel oil (oil PortugaD price per ounce, 80.
2-Distilling Hereby oil; per ounce, 81
3-Distilling fallen green fruit oil per
pound, 81.
4-DistilIing leaves oil; per pound, so.
5-Preparing wine; pergallon, so cents.
6-Preparing citric acid per pound, so
cents.
7-Preparing dry orange flowers; per
pound, 81.
S-Preparing orange blossom pomade;
per pound, $3.50.
9-Preparing orange flower water; per
gallon, $3.50.
Owners of orange plantations spending
from $4,000, to $4,000 for necessary
machinery and using 2,64O, 900 oranges,
can obtain oil, Portugal Oily worth 3d.
900, but by selling to the best advantage
can obtain about $4,000. Utilizing
flowers, fallen fruits, leaves, juice (sweet
and sour) and preparing pomades he can
double that amount, which necessitates
additional expenses and machinery to
$1,000 All products are good for per-
fumery, soaps and candy business.
The matter OF purchasing the ma
chinery necessary to manufacture the
products OF the orange grove would, of
course, deter many who might otherwise
engage in the industry, and here, again,
is the opportunity of the co-operators.
The grove owners of the different Sec
tions could cooperate in the purchase of
the necessary machinery and reduce
the oapitarequired by each individual to
the lowest minimum.
