words, however eloquent. One evening
he met at a sort of literary dinner M.
Caro-, the philosopher beloved of fine Ia

not seem to interest the sage. In the
middle of one of his most sonorous pc
riods M. Renan attempted to make him
self heard.
But all the ladies were intensely in
terested. They would not have theii
pleasure spoiled.

listen to you in your turn"
He bowed submissively.

Feeding Horses for Bone.

We should advise F. H. l.. says F. w. G., in Country Gentleman, to grind some good cats, and make mixture of five pounds fine wheat bran with four pounds ground oats, and feed two pounds of this mixture to the two year old Ally, morning and evening If it should happen that the bone is in- creased more than l.. thinks proper, he might change the mixture to an equal weight of fine wheat bran and ground oats. We suspect that the rolled oats which he has been feeding are one of these Improvements made by the miller to suit his customers, and that t contains much less bone material than simple ground oats. Bran makes more bone than oats. but it is a coarser bone, and therefore a mixture of bran and oats combined makes a finer and better bone for quick driving. 1t is rather late to ex- pertinent on a six-year-old mare; yet it may produce a change desirable to l..

in acreage and value until, in 1892, in the southeastern section of North Carolina it dethroned King COtton," and during that same year the impor- tations of the nut decreased by one- half. Whether this was due to home protection or home production, others may decide. The exportation was less than S300Oos The magnitude and uni versatility of the home consumption of peanuts are something startling. There are few towns too small to sup port at least one vender, while in the cities the picturesque stalls and roast CTS are features of the business streets.
 VALUABLE NUT OIL.
 The peanut has a great commercial importance aside from it's roasted state. The seeds contain from F to 50 per cent of oil, which is easily ob- taned by cold or warm expression. The first method produces a superior oil, which none but the expert can de- tect from the true olive oil. and it may be used for the same purposes, both cn the table and in pharmacy.
 the latter method the beans are but slightly heated before being sub mtted to pressure and the yield is much greater, but the color is darker and the odOr more pronounced and less agreeable. This second quality of Arachis oil, as 1t is known, is used for lubricating watches and delicate machinery. The west coast of Africa produces an almost incalculable crop to supply the European demand, Mar seilles alone importing in one year alone over l0.000,000 bushels for use in the manufacture of chocolate, while billions of bushels are yearly carried to London, Hamburg, Berlin and other Tlaces for oil. Very large quantities are grown in India, for home uses. Brazil, which is the true botanical home of the plant, does little more than supply her own trade. In sum ming up the products of this one com mon nut, which is nut only by cour- tesy, we find them holding important places in my lady's toilet, in the dining room and in the stablel In this util- itarian age. who will dare say that it is absurd to hoist the flag of the pea nut as "our national nut?"

The vines are pitched onto an elevated platform and are fed int, the hopPer. Tie pods are thrown ou If the cylinder at the left aud are n fair condition. Usually machine will pick 800 bushels day, and one is al- most necessity on farms where a large acreage is sown to this crop. If the beans are destined to be ground for the oil no loss will follow if the pods are cracked in picking.
 The pickers receive in North Caro- lima from 33 to 40 cents a bale After baiing, the nut is ready for market, but before it reaches the retail buyer it usually undergoes several cleansing processes. The pods are first run through fan, somewhat similar to i the machine that blows the chaff from wheat, to remove the dirt, dried leaves and pops They are then put on revolving cylinders and are polished by natural attrition. Some authorities claim that sharp, clean sand is used in the process. Probably the methods vary in the different factories. It was 1 formerly the custom to bleach the pops to still further improve their ap- pearance, but this is falling into dis use, since the varieties planted have been improved.
 From the cylinders the pods are run out in an endless cloth which reyOlyes over the cylinders. Women and chil- dren sit on each side apd quickly and deftly pick out the good pods, allow ing the faulty ones to pass on and fall into receptacle. The more uniform ly fair the appearance of the beans the higher the retail price; although the whole tribe of peanut Joes1 invari- ably charge ten cents quart for every state of the market.
 VALUE OF THE CROP.
 A bulletin from the Department of Agriculture states that the crop va ries in yield from ? bushels to lC0 bushels per acre, 2S pounds being tie standard weight per bushel." In the northeast sections Of North Carolira the yield often reaches l25 bushels to The acre, while the average is 8 bush els. Large farms often have from lCC to 200 acres seeded to this one crop.
 North Carolina has sometimes been iocosely called the Peanut State"- not from it's politics though it by nc means monopolzes this valuable crop. Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, and some other southern states raise im- ! mense quantities. There is never any thing small about California, so it is not surprising that she claims to raise the best peanuts, as well as all the subtropical nuts and fruits. For sev eral years past the crop has increased

Chaplain Winfield Scott had success fully and proiitably raised crop of peanuts in the Salt River Valley. Mir scott'ssuccessful effort can herepeated with equal success and profit in the great Casa Grande Valley. In this connection the following article from Demorest's Monthly will be interesting to readers of TIE OASIS:
 ITS MANY NAMES.
 The peanut enjoys a multitude of names. In some parts of the country it is called the groundpea or earthnut; in others the monkey or manilla nut, while to the majority of southern children it is the dearly loved pindar or goobcr. In France, where it is ex- tensiyely imported from the west coast of Africa. it is known as Dis taehe de tcrrc. or nut Of the earth. What the native Africans call it am unable to say; but in ourcHstcm-house classification if is placed with maca- roni. tapioca and sardincS. under the head of dried fruits. and the sneiled nuts are called beans. Truly peanut by any other name will taste like a peanut still.
 The plant is botanically classified under the order Lcguminosa, and the tender annual reclines under the im- posing title of arachis hypog9a, the first or family name, being altered from a Greek appelation employed oy Tbeonhrastus. and the second. or sre- citic name. meaning under" and the earth. in allusion to the situation of the pods.
 A COUSIN or THE DEAN.
 There are very few plant> that ex- hibit more novel methods of ripening their seeds than this common and but little understood peanut. And al- though it is cousin Of the garden pea and tie bean. the family resemblance k not strong. Like the pea, it is q diGusels biauci,cdannual, but of trail inc tafler than ci.nhiug habits, witl eompound leaves of four leaflets. whicl are slightly pointed in some species and abruptly cut of near the end in others. The leaves are very abundant and cf tender green, with downy stems.

They are densely crowded together in the axis of the lower leaves. or are soli- tarv. at the whmof the parent plant each leirp snbiendcd by stipule-likt bract, aiaut haifan inch longand very .latply roini,d, and each with two small opposite lLer bractS beneatl the calyX.
