NEW RIVAL FOR THE GOBELER
THANKSGIVING DINNER ALL OF
PEANUTS
Horace Wolverton Of Duncan and His
Wife Design a Unique Menu
Of the Little Coolers

Ever hear Of a peanut Thanksgiving
dinner? The first one on record was
served al the home of Horace NJ. VOL
verton. three miles from Duncan, Okla.
November 2S. 1912. OF course there
was turkey and, incidentally, two or
three chickens to help fill the plates
OF the youngsters who came back for
a second-or a. third-helping. Mr..
Turkey had about an inch OF juicy fat
over his breastbone and IT was put
there by peanuts. Chickens were in
the same class, for all the fowls on
the Wolverton farm range in the pea
nut fields.
AS desert there was a peanut layer
cake. This was baked by Mrs. VOL
yerton, who is an adept at making nse
0f the COOLERS in her culinary opera
lions. She crushed the parched nuts
and mixed them with caramel, making
filing for the layers that was delic-
ious and appetizing. Other things
seryed-all except the cranberries-
were grown on the place. II Vas
strictly a home products dinner, With
second crop Irish potatoes and some
fine yams, pumpkin pie and other
good things, including apples from The
farm orchard. The peanut butter was
home made, as was the dairy butter,
and the children preferred the former
The Wolverton kids" are noted for
their heartiness and health and a pea
nut diet is largely responsible.
A flock o. 46 turkeys kept the pea
nut plants free from insects through
the summer and did not damage the
vines. After the nuts matured, the
turkeys, in sSne way, discovered what
was in the ground. and they picked
them out about as readily as the hogs
do. Mrs. Wolverton sold SASS worth
Of peanut fed turkeya before Thanks
giving and had Is good cnes left for
THE Christmas trade. Fowls fed IN
peanuts have a soft juicy meat that
equals milk-fed poultry in tenderness
and has a flavor peculiarly its own.
There is room for the development of
new speciality here that means
money for the man who gets in the
field with peanut fed poultry.

KAFIR YIELD is SUPERB
Head Found Large as Ear Of Corn;
Argument for Acreage Increase.

A head of kafir corn. weighing prac-
tlcally as much as an ear Of corn and
fully matured, is the unanswerable
argument favoring the planting of katir
corn in Oklahoma instead of corn, that
was brought to Oklahoma City by W.
D. Bentley, government demonstration
agent in charge OF the work being done
by the department of agriculture in
Oklahoma. The kafir corn head had
been taken from a field adjoining some
corn that was showing the effects Of
hot July sun and lack of moisture,
Il took the kafir corn head from a
field near Snyder" Mr.. Bentley said,
"and the whole field practically was
ready for cutting. Yet in spite of what
has been said regarding the planting
of corn in the state, there are more
than 100000 acres given to that crop
In Oklahoma this year and not half
as much in kafir corn. The corn al
ways looks promising in the latter nart
OF June but from practically first plsce
the state usually drops to twenty-ffth
place during July. This has been the
experience nearly every year. and yet
corn is planted again as though the
yield had been abnormal That's op-
timism for you, but to a fault"
Mr.. Bentley contends that the farm
ers should raise kafir corn for the feed
that will be produced for livestock IN
stead OF endeavoring to raise cash
crop. His gospel is to send the prod
ucts of the farm to market on four
legs. by raising peanuts, milomaize.
kafir corn and other insurance crops
as feed and then raising hogs and
cattle.
