THE PEANUT.
Il Starts Growing In the Open, but
Finishes Under Ground.

Most people of the north suppose
that peanuts grow, like potatoes, on the
roots of the vine. Others with equal
confidence state that they hang from
the branches like pea pods. Both are
right, and both are wrong. The peanut
starts In the air and sunlight above
ground in the shape of flower grow
ing at the end of long tube. After
the fall of blossoms this tube, or pc
duncle, elongates and bends down
ward, pushing itself inches into the
ground. If for any reason it cannot
do this it dies in a few hours. But
II it succeeds in burying itself to its
own satisfaction the ovary at the base
of the peduncle slowly enlarges and
forms the familiar pod, which is there
fore dug out of the ground.
Scattered over the roots of the plant,
however, are numerous warts or tu-
bercles, in which, by the aid of a good
microscope, can be seen myriads or
minute organisms. These bacteria-like
bodies, though they get their living
from the plant, contribute materially
to its supporting by collecting nitrogen
from the air and holding it in storage,
so to speak, supplying it to the plant
as need requires. These wonderful
little storehouses often contain, by
analysis, a greater supply of this in
despensable fertilizer than the sur
rounding soil
The native country Of the peanut has
long been a matter Of dispute. but the
department of agriculture states that
the weight of evidence seems to be In
favor of Brazil. Thus the peanut is
added to the four other plants of great
Importance that America has given to
the world-namely, cotton, Indian corn
tobacco and the potato.

The expression knocked into COCK

perhaps its origin is not so generally

all were knocked down except the
three at the corners the set was said
