Arrests High Official.

NJ. Cruppi is certainly to be congratulate
ed for the very thorough way he pur-
sues evildoers at the Quai d Orsay. He
was once public prosecutor. and the old
instincts are doubtless strong in him. 1t
required some courage to call to account
a high official like NJ. F'rantz Hamon and
have him arrested.
NJ Hamon, officer OF the Legion OF
Honor and the financial chief OF the
Qua! d Orsay, considered himself quite
as big man "a minister. Ministers
come and go. but the lannon's remain,
manipulating the public expenditure at
their own sweet will
Naughty and defiant. he refused to ap-
pear before the council of directors

mand explanations. AS result. he was
Immediately 'shadoWed,' seeing which.
he gave himself up TO justice. Other
events have diverted public attention
somewhat from the scandal.

like It since NJ. Bashant ex-minister of
public works, was condemned at the as
sizes for fraudulent completely in the
Panama affair.

the greatest interest in everything

out of Hyde Park and started in the
direction of Picadilly the guide point
ed to big old house surrounded by a
high brick wall, and shouted through
his megaphone:

dence of the Duke of C, one OF

THE PIG AND THE PEANUT.

l The use of the peanut for the pur-
pose of fattening hogs has been some
what neglected in Sumter county, as
the successful use of this important
crop elsewhere in the state will show.
Probably Brooks county has a rep
utation second to no other county IN
the state in the matter of successful
hog raising The experience of the
Brooks county farmers should then
be of the greatest value to the farmers
of every section of the state.
The peanut crop has been used by
the most successful stock men in
southern Georgia in fattening hogs
The best results, however, seem TO
have been gained not on an exclusive
peanut feed, but with an intermingl-
ing of corn and other foods with the
peanut food
In the case of an exclusive peanut
diet for hogs, the fattening process is
overdOne. The meat thus obtained,
instead of having the much sought
after firm and consistent fatty parts,
seems to be too fat to be classed Is
prime mat 1t neither keeps as well
as the firmer and more temporarily
fattened meat, but its superfuous fat
is so soft and oily as to be objection
able
But there is undoubtedly broad
field for the use of peanuts in the
fattening of hogs that Sumter county
farmers may we'll take advantage of
more generally than they are now do
ing. The meat of the peanut-fattened
hog is widely sought after 1t is said
to have delicacy and piquancy of
flavor than none other possesses. For
this reason the Brooks county farmers
sell their meat products with ease inI
all sections of the state.
So great a demand for Brooks coun-
ty hams and bacon has sprung up, in
fact, that it can hardly be supplied.
The Brooks county farmer has made
hog-raising pay and made it pay well.
When such a demand for meats of
this kind exists and such prices are
paid for it, extra care and eXpenseI
can be afforded in raising it and plac-
ing it on the market. !
Why shouldn't Sumter county ham
and bacon be as good as any that can
be raised anywhere?
