Luke McLuke says: It isn't
hard to find out if you have any
friends. All you have to do is to
get into trouble.

The reports show that up to dat>
500,000 horses have been shipped
to the European belligerents, but as
we had 24,000,000 to start witn,
according to the census returns,
that does not leave much of a

Have You P anted Peanuts?
It is remarkable how peanuts are
coming into prominence. Maty
articles have been written on the
feeding qualities of p.anuts, espec
iallv as a feed for hogs. The agri
cultural colleges have experimented
on this line and found that the pea
nut is the cheapest feed for growing
and fattening hogs. The farmer
who has a bunch of hogs and a patch
of peanuts will realize large profit
in the finished hog. It is advisable
to feed some corn or kafir a short
time before thai hog is put on the
market.
The peanut buttsr factories are
having trouble in procuring enough
peanuts to supply their factories
The farmer is making no mistake
by planting a patch of peanuts and
giving them the proper cultivation
he would other crops. Get a few
hogs and let them do the picking
this fall. Peanuts can be planted
any time up to June 15.
Of Course.
