to give us some information.
While peanuts have already
been proven the best and cheap
est hog feed, they have now been
put 2 1-7 over cotton seed in oil
production. From a comparison
with cotton seed we find the lat-
ter makes 35 gal. of oil per ton,
while peanuts make 75 gal; that
cotton seed will make 600 lbs of
cake per ton, peanuts 1200; that
cotton seed oil brot B8 l-4c per
gallon while peanut oil brot 90c.
Hulls from a ton of cotton seed
is worth $9; hay from a ton of
peanuts is worth $18, If peanuts
produce 33 bu.per acre they will
bring the farmer $43. The crop
is easier produced than cotton
and Will stand more dry or wet
weather, and neither boll worms
nor weevil will hurt them. Thej
malic the best feed' for cattle,
horses, bogs aud chickonj aud
can bu fed when feed is high or
sold when feed is low.
Farmers, you are sending out
thousands of dollars from your
cnunty every week for feed and
meat; this money can never be
replaced. If the farmer will
raise plenty of feed the cotton
money can be kept to help de-
velope the country, but if cotton
money goes for feed nothing is
left, So it certainly behooves
the bankers and merchants to
insist on the farmer raising lots
of feed. It will save credit.
Don't only raise feed, but raise
food fo( the family. Poultry
brings in as much money in Mis
sou ri as cotton does in Oklaho-
ma, and it is much easier raised.
Grow peanuts for chicken feed.
