Few Of the fond papas and mammas
who buy Johnnie or Mary bag Of
peanuts at the circus know that more
than 100 different methods Of utilizing
peanuts, including the making Of fancy
dyes and wood stains, peanut milk,
coffee, and Ice cream have been de-
vised, although few Of these products
are sold commercially. But peanut
oil, peanut candy, peanut butter, salt
ed peanuts, peanut cookies, roasted
peanuts, and peanuts in number Of
other forms run up the annual Amer
lean per capita consumption to three
and one-half pounds. Every time GER
tain soaps are used the consumer is
partaking Of his three and one-half
pounds.
Fully half Of the peanuts grown in
the Southern states are fed to hogs.
Large quantities Of peanuts are, ex-
ported also, 1,074,O07 pounds having
gone out Of the country during the
month Of January alone. OF this
quantity, 78 per cent went to Canada,
where the peanut enjoys copopularity

muda per cent.

FEEDING VALUE OF GARBAGE
Affords Hogs well.HaIanced Ration
and supplementary Feeds Are
Not Necessary.

Most garbage Is Of such variety that
1t enables a hog to balance Its ration
so that supplementary feeds are not re-
quired. In some eases, however, the
animals are finished of on corn, barley,
wheat middlings, and similar feed just
before they are marketed. The feed
ing value Of garbage, however, es-
.pecially carefully selected garbage, is
such that 1t is seldom economical to
use any additional grain supplement.
However, when grain is low in price,
good results might be obtained by feed
ing garbage alone during the summer
months, when ordinarily there is q
large production, and finishing the hogs
on grain. Greater gains per day can be
made with a grain supplement, but at
greater cost than when garbage is fed
alone.

During the first spring work many
horses suffer from sore shoulders.
Great care should be taken that these

Good collars and good care Of them
are essential. See that the collars are
thoroughly scraped, and then rubbed
clean and busted with talcum powder
or powdered borax. Rub the horses'

irst few days Of heavy work, bathe
them each evening With cold salt wa.

prepared BY the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
Root crops most commonly grown in
home gardens are radishes, bsets, car
rots, parsnips, satisfy, and turnips. OF
these beets and carrots stand at the
head Of the list from the standpoint
Of food value from given area of
land, but it would be difficult to state
which of the root crops really IL the
most important, say garden specialists
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture.
Radishes are among the first garden
crops to be planted in spring, and a
very small space is required to pro-
duce all that is needed by the average
family. The soil should be loose, mel
low, and very rich, SO the radishes will
grow quickly and be crisp and tender.
Radish seeds should be planted in a
shallow furrow and covered about one
half inch deep. Two or three varieties
should be planted in order to have a
continuous supply. French Breakfast
and Scarlet Globe Turnip are among
those which mature in the shortest
period, while Long Scarlet Short Top
and Long White Vienna or Lady
Finger are good to follow the extra
early varieties.
Plant Beets Early.
Garden beets can be planted almost
as soon as the soil can be worked in
the spring. Rich soil that is well pre-
pared is essential. Commercial fer
tilizers and well-rotted rnanures are
best to supply plant food, but should be
very thoroughly mixed with the soil.
Egyptian and Detroit Dark Red are
among the leading varieties. Sow the
seed In a shallow drill, ounce Of seed

inch deep. When the plants have be-
come we'll established thin SO they do
not crowd. A little later thin second
time, leaving the plants standing 4 to
inches apart in the row. Use the thin
nings as greens. The round or tur-
nip type Of beets mature in 60 to 20
days, while the longer ones require
100 to 120 days to complete their
growth.
1t is an old saying, Carrots for
beauty and beets for strength" and
while this can not be taken literally
1t has great amount Of truth In it.
From the standpoint of health, car
rots are very important in the diet,
and their culture is so simple that any
gardener can grow them. Rich, we'll

prepared soil is the first essential.
Good seed Is important, and the seed
should always be that which was
saved the previous year. Oxheart and
Chantenay are the varieties most COM
monty planted. Space the rows Is to
1S inches apart. One ounce of the
seed is sufficient for 100 feet of row.
Cover the seeds one-half inch deep and
keep the crust slightly broken over the
seeds until they come up. Thin twice,
finally leaving the plants three to Ave
inches apart in the row, those pulled
during the second thinning being used
as baby carrots on the table.
Parsnlps and Satisfy.
Throughout the northern sections
parsnips and satisfy are important as
root crops for the garden. Their cul-
ture is very much the same, and they
require deep, rich soil, so the long
roots viii have chance to develop.
