WRONG AND RIGHT WAY.

and soaks into the manure dig little
trench to carry il away.
Build $40 or pen for the manure,
as shown in the illustration Make il
seven or eight feet wide and about
four feet longer at each end than the
windows from which the manure is
thrown. If stock occupy the full
length of the barn the pen will be
as long as the barn. The earth
should be dug out about two feet
deep inside the pen. The deeper the
pile the better ii is. but the bottom
cannot be much more than two feet
below ground because of the difficulty
Of loading manure on the wagon.
Make the sides of the pen Of boards
or small poles and strengthen by
using plenty Of upright posts. The
better plan is to put the side boards
inside the posts, as the manure set
ties more compactly.
After the pen is built cover the
surface with one or two feet OF muck,
loam or sods and turn in one or two
hogs TO tramp it down. The impor-
tant thing is TO keep the manure
spread evenly over the surface. The
pigs may do this, but If not il will be
necessary once or twice n week to
spread the manure that piles under
the windows.
The pen should be filed as full as
possible before carting il out. but II
cannot be filled above the window
sill without a good deal Of work.
When full there Is solid block OF
manure about five or six feet deep,
seven or eight feet wide and as long
ms the pen. The little rain that has
fallen upon it has hardly more than
wet il down i'm good shape. but when
very heavy rains fall add enough lit
ter or loan to absorb the water.
Never let the water run off the top
Of the pile. but add sufficient absorb
ents to keep the pile reasonably dry.
In fact. absorbents must be added
from time TO time to take up the
natural moisture IL il is largely COW
manure. When thus treated there is
practically no loss from rains and the
sun and wind have not appreciably
hurt it. because Of the small surface
exposed. The entire pile becomes
good. solid manure and the loan that
was originally placed at the bottom
Is Just as good as the rest.
When carting out manure take ont
the pigs and take down the side
boards so as to avoid throwing the
manure over the high fence. With the
above arrangement the manure is in
excellent shape-so good. in fact. that
very much doubt il roof would
be any material benefit. The larger
the quantity Of manure made daily
and the smaller the size Of the pen
IN length and width the better will
be the manure. ! have used this ar.
rangemcnt number OF years and am
much pleased with it.-Orange JUDD

Shelled neanuts contain from 80 TO -
per cent. Of oil.
In 1899 some so. 900 tons of peanuts
were used ia Marseilles alone for oil
making.

are used a. roasted peanuts.

Roasted peanut. ground into an oily

put on the market and is used TO spread
on bread. There are those who like its
flavor when il is fresh.
When the oil has been pressed from
the ground peanut the mass remaining,
called oilcake, is used for fattening cat
tie. Some experiments have also been
made as TO its food value for human be-
ings. Oilcake contains AZ per cent. OF
protein and Q per cent. of fat and starch
and costs about cents pound.
At present the American peanut crop
is not large enough TO more than sup
ply the rooster and confectioner, hence
the pressing Of oil from the peanut has
never become established here. but in
Europe large quantities Of the African.
raised nut are used for this purpose.
