HOGS FATTENED ON PEANUTS.

Farm and Fireside, the national
farm paper published at Springfield
Ohio, prints in its current issue an
interesting article by ]. l.. Cuneo
entitled Peanut Culture in Oklaho
ma" showing how Spanish peanuts
can be grown in various parts of the
country and used as feed for hogs
Finishing the hogs for market or get
ting them ready for butchering fol
home consumption has put the farm
ers in Oklahoma and in the semi arid
regions of the Southwest to a severe
test during the past three years
Owing to dry weather and hot winds
the grain crop during the past sea-
son was nearly a failure in those
parts of the country. Hog raisers,
finding that they could no longer de.
pend on the grain crop to finish their
pork, found that Spanish peanuts met
the requirements. Mr.. Cuneo writes
in part as follows:
1.-The peanut is one of the best
drouth-resisting crops that can be
raised, in fact it will stop growing
and wait for rain. The plants will
wilt under the hot sun of the day, but
will be fresh and green the next
morning. 1t is very productive and
will do we'll on almost any kind of
soil, but is best adapted to a light
sandy loan having a clay subsoil.
''In the summer of 1911 l had four
acres of peanuts, and although not a
drop of rain fell for forty-f1ve days,
this crop continued to grow, and for
ty bushels per acre were harvested.
In 1912, on the same kind of land
and with half the cultivation of corn,
gathered seventy-five bushels of
peanuts and twenty bushels of corn
per acre.
"The most profitable way of raising
peanuts is to plant the crop, and
after the nuts are filled and matured
cut the hay and cure like clover, and
let the hogs harvest the nuts.
Last year the writer had a small
patch of peanuts, little less than an
acre. On September 18th the vines
were cut, and six hogs averaging
ninety pounds each were turned in
to harvest the nuts On November
18th the hogs were again weighed,
and they showed gain of $50
pounds, equivalent to $58 at the price
hogs were then selling for. They
were then taken off the peanuts and
fed Kaffir corn for two weeks and
were ready for the market.
while bigger gains and more
profit can be secured by feeding pea
nuts in this than any other way.
Peanuts alone will not put the hogs
in the best shape for the market,
as the flesh will be soft, and some
grain feeding for a week or ten days
is advisable"

that the mill is in serious state of
decay. Recent examination indicates
that 1t cannot stand much longer un-
less immediate repairs are carried
out. The roof-boards must be made
good. so as to keep out the rain, and
the main timbers of the upper portion
must be strengthened in order to
Withstand the strain and stress of
southwesterly gales to which it lies
exposed. These works will involve a
certain expenditure, but it is believed
that there will be no difficulty in rails
ing a sufficient sum-say, $50 pounds
to 200 pounds-to save the mill from
the total decay by which it is now
threatened. The date of the mill is
probably the latter part of the seven
teenth century; the year 1716, cut on
the main post, indicating, in all prob
ability, some addition or change of
ownership. A view of the external
appearance of the building is shown

THE ENGINEERS. ACCIDENT"
kansas City Journal.)

An accident insurance story, told
by Bill Cunningham, of Arkansas
City: Not long ago an engineer on
the Sante Fee, out in Arkansas, 'pur-
chased an accident insurance policy.
A few days afterward he was out in
his yard giving attention to a hive of
bees, which he had recently purchas-
ed. One of the bees for some rea-
son not disclosed, injected his sting
er into that portion of the engineers
anatomy which might have warmed
a presidential chair but didn't The
engineer claimed the injury was so
painful that he could not sit down to
run his engine, and that it was i'm
possible for him to run it standing,
and therefore he was disabled from
following his usual calling. He made
a claim on the insurance company
for disability and within a few days
the company forwarded their check
for the amount claimed.
