HOW PEANUTS GROW.
Some Interesting Facts Which Are Not
Generally Known.


Generally Known.
All boys, and good many of their
sisters, are fond of peanuts. Every
body knows that no circus is COM
plete without them, but probably not
many boys, nor girls either, know just
how they grow, says the New York
Times. The peanut is supposed to be
chief food of certain regions, but it is
found, too, in South America and Eu-
rope, the species varying slightly in
the different countries. Here in the
United States it is cultivated chiefly in
Virginia, North Carolina and Tennes-
see. The seed planted is the meat
kernel, and care is taken not to break
the skins. The plant grows like a
vine, and the nuts hang on to it like
pea pods. A single vine will, it is esti-
mated, produce about 100 nuts if it is
of the average good condition. At this
rate the yield per acre is 40 bushels
Three varieties of these nuts are grown
there-the white, red and the Spanish
They are readily distinguished, as they
have individual characteristics. The
next time you eat a peanut with two
kernels very white, with pink skins,
you will know it is of the white
variety, which is the most important.
The shell of the red nut sometimes
holds three or four dark kernels, and its
skin is of a decidedly dark red, so you
cannot mistake that; while the Spanish
nut is so much smaller, with lighter
skin than either of the others, that II
will not be mistaken for either. Nearly
100000 bushels of peanuts are used in
this country every year.

have been fitted the words:

The last note is followed by the shrIll
whistle of boatswain's mate and the
prolonged, hoarse cry; "A-a-a-n
ha-a-nds!"
( Then on the decks below you can hear
the master-at-arms rushing from ham

crying:

of trees, then neatly fold their blankets,

singing them from the hooks overhead
they carry them hastily on deck to the
MEETINGS; for i'll ten minutes after that
bugle call of reveille every hammock
must be slowed away, and anyone who
comes later with his hammock is re
ported for punishment by the officer OF
the deck to the captain.--Lieut. John NJ

REVEILLE ON SHIPeOARD,


Ehe Bugle Calls All Hands to Lash Up
the Hammocks.
Let us spend day on board of man
Df-war and see how this is done. Let
us suppose that she is in port. We take
our place on her deck very early in the
morning. The heavens are bright with
stars, and about us masts and rigging,
smokestacks and ventilators rise up in
Fhadowy outlines, while the Dig guns
loom ill-defned and ghostlike. In the
gangway sentinels are pacing; on the
bridge a quartermaster keeps his look
out; and back and forth on the quarter
deck PAGES an officer, alone. By the
light of lantern he presently consults
book for the morning orders, which
have been written by the executive Off
Ger the night before; and then he di-
reefs the quartermaster to call the boat
swain's mate, the hammock showers,
the master-at-arms and the bugler.
Then passes a period of ten minutes,
during which a few shadowy figures
appear on deck and take their stand
beside the long, trough-like places in
the ships bulwarks known as the ham
mock MEETINGS, opening them up and
preparing them for the reception of
the hammocks. Then, at the time as
signed in the morning orders, the Off
Ger of the deck gives his first routine
order: Sound the reveillel Call all
hands,"
At once there ring out in the hitherto
silent ship those merry bugle notes

THE GREAT NURSERIES.
Louisiana, Mo-, Rockport, nls.-Visited by
Gov. Colman, Ex-Sec'y Agri and the
Hort. Ed, Judge Miller.

"Oh, how insignificant all my fifty years
of nursery business seems, all combined,
when compared with this stupendous es-
tablishment, where they count by millions"
said Judge Miller, that veteran horticultur-
list, as he, in company with the writer, were
being driven to the various departments of
this vast nursery.
In an experience Of over forty years we
do not remember to have passed through an
establishment where so large mum Der OF
hands were employed whose duties were so
S9l1a1Toughly systemized, and where bust
ness capacity of higher order was mani
tested.
1t is not in the soil of every farm that one
finds qualities essential to the growth Of
the different kinds of Nursery stock, hence
1t has devolved upon these gentlemen, who
were born to the Nursery business, to select
from among the hills and valleys of the two
Pixies such portions as are adapted to their
purposes. But in this very fact of selection
Of soil, we see their exceeding care for the
future success of their stock.
Missouri and Illinois have no more worthy
institutions than the Stark Nurseries, and
surely no better or more representative
men than the proprietors. The business is
growing on their hands as it deserves to
grow.
They have a system of 10000 acres of com
mercial test orchards located in great fruit
growing regions.
The canvassing force is being increased,
5000 fine outfits ready. Stark Nurseries al
ways have room for more active workers
because they have millions of Stark trees to
sel.-Colman's Rural World.
