PEANUTS RAISED At HIGHLAND
Experiments Prove That This Nut
Can Be Successfully Cultivated

Something new that is to spring up
in the Riclland valley, along with
the famous apples. grapes, straw
berries. pears, apricOrs, cherries, etc.,
is the peanut Experiments have
been tried at Richland to grow this
nut and the results have been aston
ishing and satisfying. Owing to the
extreme altitude 1859, feet). compared
with the surrounding country, the
climate much milder and seasons less
sharply defined. the Richland Valley
offers unusual opportunities in peanut
culture.
Peanuts thrive best where an early
warm spring occurs. Richland springs
begin the first of March-the summer
nights are nice and cool; the days are
perfect for growing this popular
American luxury.
Since the Civil war the peanut has
been an important crop in the South,
especially from Virginia to Georgia.
and in Tennessee. The crop averages
about 100000 bushels annually, three
quarters of which is recleaned for
roasting and sale as luxury, either
alone or in candy The hay is fed TO
stock. Pigs are often prohtaDiy
turned upon the field after the mar
vesting of the crop, making good
quality of pork.
Peanuts thrive the best upon very
loose. sandy loan SOIL well supplied
with lime. They are also favored by
an early warm spring and hot, hu-
mid summer. The soil should be
deeply plowed and finely narrowed,
at
about two bushels to the acre, plantedf
about an inch deep, at intervals of
foot in rows about 80 inches apart,
as soon as the weather has become /
settled i'm the spring Until the plants
shade the ground, the surface must
be kept loose and open and free from
weeds. Before frosts, the plants are
harvested dried in the loose shocks
for two or three weeks, the pods re-
moved and sent to the re-cieanInS
where they are fin
shed for the market.
The people of the United States
consume upwards of $10,00O,000 worth

is made for anything of the kind In
the postal appropriation bill now be-
fore the house. Congressman LLOYD
of Missouri. who is a member of the
postoffice committee of the house, SAID
in a speech the other day that the COM
mittee is not prepared to pass on the
question of travel pay for railway mall
clerks, for the reason that it involves
several separate features. The present
status of the matter was thus ex-
planned Mr. Lloyd:
The bill now before the house pro.

way mail clerks to 800 year more
each. so that they are not entirely lett
out of consideration. That is one
third the total number of clerks in the
service In considering travel ] ay it
must be determined whether the in
crease shall be in salary or in a daily

The False GIFT of Tongues

One member of the band who went
forth into foreign lands equipped only
with the gift of tongues has returned
to admit the gift was not of God. A
year or more ago the movement so
named was rife in PARTS of this country
and several accounts of manifesto

Now the Evening Messenger (Cleve-
land) gives the story of Mabel Collins,
g pretty girl of eighteen years, who,
having succeeded in returning home
after wandering in India and South
America, looks like woman of fifty
The story In her own words is this:
I'VE were driven out of New York
We were members of the Holy Ghost
sect and we had the gift of tongues
and went out to teach the rest of the
world the real Christ. We decided to
sail to London We escaped great
ship wreck, but they would not receive
us there. Then six of us got the call to
go to India. We went from London and
reached Calcutta in July. Mr.. Meet
roy. who led us, thought we could DO
great things in India.
Besides me, there were three girls
from New York, and two from Phila-
delphia We nearly starved in Calcutta
and went to the north. we reached
| Benares a month later There two oil
| our girls disappeared. They were very
pretty and there were some Indians
we met who liked them very much.
We were destitute, and the girls-weil,
they just vanished We didn't COM
plain to the authorities, because we
knew pretty we'll where they had gone.
They are now in harems and can
blame them much We did not nave
the real gift. and life was far more
terrible than can tell you.
Again we went north to LUCKNOW.
Another girl, Mabel Charles, OF Ne"
York. was taken from US one night
after we had camped for the night.
There were some wild hill men WAC
rode down and stopped at our camp
Next morning all were gone. mere

went back to Calcutta. From there we
sailed to Buenos Ayres to join the
