BURlEs ITS WI { E
How the Peanut Plant Protects Its
Fruit From Destruction.

Here's a plant mother that buries
her children to protect them. While
the children Of other plants are being
kidnapped by animals and birds. these
Youngsters are carefully hidden away
beneath the ground 50 they al grow
in safety. But man won't permit the
mother to keep her children long. He
digs them up and eats them. The plant
is the peanut.
It's leaves look like a four leayed
clover. Its blossoms are a dainty vel
low. shaped like those of the sweet
pea. When they withcr and fall eff
the mother plant begins to worry about
her seed children, for if the birds and
animals kidnap them before they ripen
they won't have q chance to grow and
produce more plants neXt year.
SO she bends her stalks downward.
and each head where the flowers have
fallen off she pokes into the ground.
There the little seeds develop inside
Of wrinkly, paper-like pods. Sometimes
the little tunneling mOles find them and
eat them. or maybe hogs will come
and root them out. Usually. however,
they're safe from all marauders.
America gave the world the peanut.

DUMBEST OF ALL ANIMALS.
This Creature Sits on lts Mouth DUR
ing Its Entire Lifetime.

What would you think Of an animal
who sat on his mouth? You would
guess he didn't know very much,
wouldn't you? Neither does he. You
could call him the dumbest Of dumls
animals. In fact, he's so very dumb
that most people don't know he's an
animal at all. Hes the sponge.
No, not the sponge you are acQuaint-
ed with-not the bathroom kind. That's
Just his skeleton. The sponge We're
talking about is the one hat lives i'll
the bottom Of the sea, where he sits all
day on his mouth.
In the beginning he's an egg. which
splits all up III many cells and then
swims around for a day or two. Then
there comes 4 dent III III Side-thatS
his mouth. Soon the sponge stops
swimming and sinks to the bottom,
mouth downward. There he eats and
eats until sometimes he gets to be
three feet tall and as thick as he is
tail.
He's covered with a jellylile flesh.
When sponge fishermen hunt him to
sell they 20 out in boats and pull
sponges from the bottom Of the sea
with long handled forks. Then they
put them on the shore to dry. After
days the jellylike flesh drops off and
the fishermen tramp the sponges with
their feet. Then they are considered
clean enough to sell. We really get
the henes Of the sponge. that's all
