HOW TO MAKE
PEANUT BUTTER.

Circular IS of the bureau of plant
industry, department of agriculture,
says:
The growing popularity Of peanut
butter as a food has led to many in
quiries regarding the methods employ
ed in it's manufacture. Peanut butter
is in reality a very simple preparation,
consisting merely of fresh-roasted
peanuts ground finely and sailed to
taste. Several large factories and a
large number of smaller ones are now
devoted to the manufacture of this
product with which to supply the rap
idly increasing demand. Some of the
larger factories are almost models in
their construction; equipment and
er establishments, which have no elab-
crate equipment, r turning put an
excellent product.
Peanut butter was first manufacture
ed and offered for sale as a food for
invalids, but the article was soon
adopted by many persons who for one
reason or another, such as preference
for vegetable foods only, objected to
the use of ordinary dairy butter. 1t
soon outgrew this condition of limited
use, and its development on a CONNER
cial scale a been a general product.
1t was never intended that this product
should be used as a substitute for or a
competitor of butter. but as a luncheon
deficacy and to add variety to the
diet. Peanut butter is a wholesome
and nutritious food product and has
become a popular article upon our
markets. Last year manufactures
used over 100 cars of shelled peanuts
in the production of 6,000,0 900 small
jars of this food. Other manufacture
ers used large quantities, the total
consumption of peanuts for the manu-
~facture OF peanut butter alone amounts
ing during the year of 1911 to approx
imately 1000 cars of shelled goods, Oh
1000, 600 bushels.
In order to produce high class pea
nut butter the manufacturer must en-
ploy the best materials. en- the other
hand, the use of the best stock obtain
able will be of little avail unless the
work OF converting into a salable
product is conducted in a sanitary
mapnar N

Loss BY FOREST FIRES.

Forest fires in the United States
have caused an average annual loss of
about seventy human lives, the de-
struction of trees worth at the very
least SIS, 000, 900, and the loss OF stock,
crops buildings, and other improve
ments to the amount Of many millions
more. To these must be added enor-
nous losses from the destruction of
Dung tree growth, deterioration OF
the soil, damage to water courses and
adjacent property by low water and
flood, interruption Of business and de-
probation of property. BY injury into
the causes and extent of such fires We
arc able to realize in some degree the
magnitude of their losses, even though
their annual amount In dollars may
not be apparent"

letin III Of the forest service issued by
Secretary Wilson which is devoted tc
