This table was carefully prepared by
DIR. Koenig. taking the open market
prices of the articles named at the time,
and demonstrates that in the peanut
we have the cheapest. most palatable
and nutritive article of diet ever offered
to man.
Here in America, and especially in
the southern states, drawing a line
westward from Maryland to the Pacific
ocean, and thence southwark to the
gulf of Mexico and the Mexican boun-
Diary line, the Arachys grows and
thrives as well as it does in its native
Africa, and should certainly be pro-
duced as cheaply. In the mills where
the oil is expressed for the purpose OF
expectation to France Ito be labeled
and returned to us as pure huile
d'oiivier de Luce or Marseille). the oil
cake can be transformed into peanut
grits, at a mere tribe. Frank l.

The ordinary oolong tea, costing
so to 70 cents a pound, has a capacity
Of about ITO half-pint cups to the
pound, while the same amount of Cey-
Ion silver-tipped tea, costing sS2, will
supply over 1900 half-pint cups and. in
addition, is vastly superior to that of
the common brands. The intrinsic
value of imported teas rarely exceeds
that figure, but in certain instances,
where the tea market has been cor
nered, as high as sl75 pound has
been paid in London. Society people
have lately declared in favor of the ex-
pensive teas and the dainty o'clock
teas are no longer the economical so
cial events of yore.

-One of the features of the projected

According to these figures, 1000 parts
of peanut meal or grits are worth, on
nutrimental basis. 1878 parts of soya
bean, 1871 parts of lentils, l.790 parts
of navy beans and 1,S22 parts of peas
The method of making soup of the
peanut grits differs in no respect from
that of preparing bean, pea or lentil
soup or puree, The grits are washed
in cold or tepid water, to get rid of
dust or dirt, and then boiled, with APP
propriate condiments. Like all the
leguminosse, too, the peanut, to make
first-class soup, demands soft water,
fact too often neglected by our
domestic cooks. Where only hard wa
ter for cooking purposes can be
had it should be softened. or
rather made slightly alkaline, with
cooking soda, the amount vary
ing with the degree of hardness
of the water. This is necessary, not
merely to obtain the best flavor, but
also to attain the highest nutritive
value. Thus prepared the peanut
makes delicious and highly nutri-
tious PURGE, as the writer can testify
from personal experience. AS an adj
dition to made dishes. with rice, pota-
toes and other foods deficient in
heterogeneous material, it is certain to
tickle the palate even of connoisseurs
and gourmets. The writer has also
tested peanuts boiled with bit of
mess pork. and assures the reader that
the dish is superior to the best pork
and beans ever served on table, even
in the classic precincts of Boston's
back bay. Try it, and proceed as fcl
lows:
TO PREPARE FOR COOKING.
Hull the desired quantity of raw pea
nuts and scald the kernels sufficiently
to make the membranous cortcx slip
off easily. Crush in a mortar and press
out so much of the oil as can be gotten
rid of by placing the mass in a linen
cloth and twisting the latter tightly.
Then carefully roast the residue to dry
ness. but not sufficiently to develop the
sweet (glucose) taste. The material in
this condition will keep indefinitely.
Use it in cooking as you would beans,
or in any manner that your culinary
knowledge and skill may suggest.
Mixed with -four it makes superior
biscuit, and baked alone, with the ad-
dition of little salt only, it makes a
most toothsome cracker.
THE COST AND COMPARATIVE NUTRIMEN.
| TAI VALUE.
To return to DIR. Koenig's report;
The price per kilogram Il pounds) OF
| the grits in Berlin is 40 pfennigs. OF
saw exc "A pfennigs to the lxreuser) OF
SIC per pound. The nutrimeutal value
of the kilogram is 1887 units. What
this meaus will best be illustrated by
the following table showing the nutri-
mental value of mark t25c) worth OF
the various foodstuffs in common use

table foodstuff yet discovered the pea

intuition thereof are, DIR. Koenig ap-

A singular Form OF MonomanIa.

There is class of people, rational enough
in other respects, who are certainly mono
maniacs in dosing themselves. They are con-
stantly trying experiments upon their
stomachs, their bowels, theirlivers and their
kidneys with trashy nostrums. When these
organs are really out of order, II they would
only use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, they
would, if not hopelessly insane, perceive its
superiority.

WORK TO BE DONE.

WILSON, N. G.
Mr. EDITOR: R:-Wil our God blessed
country continue to come to want and
poverty9 1t makes me sad to know
what a prosperous country this once
has been, and now a country of want.
We could once go along the highways
and everything was prosperous; now
it all seems dead and gone. Our farms
have lost their beauty and our once
beautiful home is gone. 1t does not
seem as it once did when mother and
father were sitting around the fireside
with their loved ones after their days
toll. No. it has all gone. Mother is
growing old; father has gone to the
blessed land where no mortgages are
given and no sorrow there. The chill
dren work harder and harder every
day and go more and more in bondage.
They can look back in the bygone days
and know what that home once has
been to them What does all this
mean9 Who is to blame7 Our chill
dren in rags, hungry and cold in a
land of plenty. Ny friends, it is the
men at the head of this government
who to day are there making laws to
bind our children under bondage more
and more. Will a Christian people
fold their hands and say all is well7
We can do nothing. The money power
has got us and we will have to do the
best we can. say no; we have not
done all Wa can do. We can stop sell
ing our votes and privileges for short
of whiskey or side of meat, and go to
the polls hand in hand and there make
the money power of America get upon
their knees and beg for mercy. The
poor laboring class feeds the world, and
if they will stand together as a body OF
men they can control the world. Don't
get upon your knees to a man because
he has money be sober and straight
forward mould in your mind on what
side is to your benefit and stand there
and fight for right and principle and
you will be sure to conquer, and the
promised land is not far ahead of us.
Be up and doing; it Is our duty. Work
while it is day, for the night cometh
when no man can work.

OUR NATIONAL DEBTS.

The national debt is 1891, $50, 1O4.
Gold alone will pay a debt. OF this
we have 5000, 900. Look at it in
this light. If you owe s. 80 and have
IS to pay it with, you can't meet the
payment, and must borrow and pay
interest; this increases your debt, says
the Farmers Outlook.
This is the condition of the govern
ment, and it is clear that the govern
ment can never pay her debt in gold,
but on the contrary her debt will in
crease. The only way out is to issue
greenbacks, full legal tender, and re-
store silver If you owe So 90 and have
$12 20 In money you are safe; but, if
you destroy over one half of your
money, you are a fool and bankrupt
This is not so foolish as the govern
ment's action was, for she destroyed
two thirds Of her money. The debt Of
the nation, states, counties, ETC., is
g, ,O27, 17O, SAG or So 25 debt to each dol
lar of money. How can you pay it9
The total public and private debt IS
$18, 900, OOO,O 600 or $24 of debt to 81 Of
money. How will you settle it2 Sell
bonds and increase the debt, or pay the
debt in the same kind of money you
borrowed7 Think of it, you business
