PEANUT PUT TO MANY USES
Nutritious OIL and PaIatable Butter
Derived From the Humble "Goob-
err" Beloved Of Childhood.

The peanut isn't a nut at all, but
a member of the pea, bean and clover
family. 1t is a 1egme and gathers
nitrogen from the air. Peanuts do not
grow from roots, but on shoots which
grow out from the plant above ground,
bear little sterile yellow blossom and
then shoot directly into the ground,
where they peg" that is, where pea
nuts begin to grow ON them. The pea
nuts are pulled from the vines Or roots,
and the roots are then plowed back
into the ground to allow the nitrogen
to feed the soil. The peanuts are then
taken to peanut factories. In these
buildings the peanuts are cleaned and
sorted. The largest are saved anS put
through a rumbler, which polishes the
shells. These are sold In the shells.
Other first grades are shelled and sold
for sailing; and one big packing COM
pany buys only first grades for peanut
butter.
If the peanuts are pulled roots and
all, the peanuts are dried out by stack
ing on poles, then pulled off and sold.
Broken peanuts are pressed and the oil
extracted Much of this oil is sold as
'spure olive OIL" In fact, 1t is quite
as rich and nutritious as olive oil. The
refuse is pressed into cakes and sold
as oil cakes for feeding stock and
especially dairy cows.-St. Nicholas.

New York Once Sought Legislative
Authority to Run Lottery to
Secure Needed Funds.

A hitherto unpublished letter of De-
Witt Clinton. written in 1909 10 John
Pintard, clerk of the common council
while Mr.. Clinton was in the New
York state senate, on legislative bills
regarding city improvements, was re-
Gently discovered in an interesting
way during the editing of the New
York common council minutes from
1884 to 1881. The chief topic of in
terest In the letter is a reference to
bill introduced at the request of the
common council asking that the leg
islature authorize lottery for $780,
600 for the purpose of raising sufi-
Gent funds for the completion of the
present city hall.
DIR. A Everett Peterson, editor Of
the common council minutes. found a
reference to the letter in the minutes
of the period and instituted search
finding it among a mass of loose pa
pers in the custody of the city clerk
and it has been reproduced in fac
simile with the minutes of 1909, pub
lished in the fifth volume of the print
ed minutes. The letter is dated from
Albany, March II. 1909. Mr.. Clinton
was mayor of New York city and also
a state senator. the mayor then being
appointed by the governor, and Mr..
Clinton held the office several years.
On the subject of the lottery for COM
pleting the city hall, Mr.. Clinton said !:
'3There appears to be a determine
ton In the legislature not to grant any
more lotteries. The memorial of the
common council praying for one has
been committed in the assembly, and
a bill has been introduced, but there
is no hope of its passing"

origin Of Scottish Festival.

The origin of "hogmanay." which
used to be so dear to the youth Of Scot
land, ay, and to the auld folks, too,
has given rise to endless discussion.
The following correspondence has ap-
peared in the Scotsman as to the
origin of the custom and the name:
'aThe derivation Hagia-mene, the
holy moon, has been suggested, the
period of which corresponded to our
December. Some, with considerable
plausibilfty, derive 1t from the Latin,
Hoe in Ammo, persuasive to charity
which reminded wellto-do patrons that
the year had all but run it's course, but
that there was still time to relieve
their needy supplicants. It is notim-
probable that the term is Of Teutonic
origin. It may be connected with
Hoegtid, name applied to Christmas
and (or) other festivities. Hoeg-tide
day would thus mean the laettissimus
dies, or gladdest season Of the year."

Lilyss Rapid Growth.

The great water lily of the botanic
gardens in London usually has long
season. In the spring it disappears
beneath the water of its tank.
How the lily vanishes and is re-
produced is explained by Mr.. North,
the curator. The thick root stock
gradually rots away and the fruits,
which are about the size of baseball,
remain at the bottom Of the tank
They are fished up in the spring and
the seeds are extracted. A single seed,
though no larger than a pea, will In
four months produce a plant that will
cover an area of 900 feet. In its ma
tive district, the Amazon. the Victoria
Regia is largely used by the natives as
food. 1t grows on the lagoons and is
perennial.
