For a good caif eight or nine months
old. c.ei who z.ake a bsaiies* of feed-
ig cattle will pay from 120 to ISO.
These me a. however, will not put
themselves to the expense of hunt-
tig for e-sch aiimalt; they will buy
only in neighborhoods where a num-
ber can be seetred at one time. To
obtain the bett results, therefore, it
is important that a whole community
decide to improve its cattle. But where
a start has been made the rapidity
with which the idea spreads is re-
markable.
Although the average farmer can-
not afford by himself the expense of
a good bull to breed his cows to, the
organization of a bull club will enable
him to secure the services of one at
a comparatively low figure. For exam-
ple, a good beef bull may cost $150.
Four of them would do for 200 cows,
so that if a club be formed of men
owning in the aggregate that number
each would have to {<ay three dollars
for each of his cows. The club may
be divided Into four sections or
"blocks," and a bull assigned to each,
the bulls being changed around at the
end of every two years. In this way,
if nothing goes wrong, it w-ill be eight
years before new purchases are nec-
essary. The old bulls can then be fat-
tened and sold.
In such a plan it is obviously neces-
sary that the members decide to use
the *ame breed and keep to their de-
cision; otherwise at the end of a few
years they will have a lot of cattle
not much better than the scrubs they
started with. Herefords, Aberdeen-
Angus. Shorthorn (Durham), Red Poll
or Devon all have their own qualities.
The Herefords and Devons are the best
' rise, aid during the breeding teason
tiDsgi gr&:i to keep him in good con-
drtSot The grain should be fed
abait a month before the breeding sea-
son opens At other times plenty of
pasture in rummer and cowpea hay in
winter with a liberal allowance of si-
'age will be sufficient.
The cows also should have pasture j
during the summer, but this should be
real pasture with Bermuda grass and
It-tj/edeza. and not a barren lot which
oSers only Ehade and water. The
whole question of forage crops and
pastures is, however, a most impor-
tant one for the South, and deserves
special attention.
Ia addition to the pasture, if the
cow is milked during the summer she
should have Eome cottonseed or a lit- j
tie cottonseed meal, a little corn, or
some other form of feed which may j
be available. In the fall and winter
when the soil is dry, oats or some oth- j
er cover crop will provide good graz-
ing. At milking time she should
have some good cowpea, lespedeza or
Bermuda hay and some cottonseed.
Calves Ehould be turned out on oats,
rye, wheat, or crimson clover as soon
as possible. The green feed will do
wonders. Fuller details in regard to
this whole question of beef raising on
the farm are contained in the United
States department of agriculpires
farmers' bulletin 580, "Beef Produc-
tion in the South."

hints on raising peanuts
Valuable Crop in South and Southwe*t
Overlooked by Many Farmers—
Always In Derrand.
Peanuts are a very valuable crop in
I the Southwest and South, where the
soil is light and the climate friendly,
but a great many farmers do not seem
I to know it
The nuts can be raised more cheap-
ly and more easily than corn and they
' always bring a good price-
Both horses and cattle are fond of
hay, and it makes excellent roughage.
Peanuts are one of the best crops
going for boys, because they seem to
take more interest in this than In any
other crop on the farm—particularly if
they are allowed to have the proceeds.
The way to start i to get perfectly
good seed. The nuts should be
smooth, of good size, and free from
any blemish.
In Kansas and Missouri the seed
should be plahted about the last of
"A year ago I was a wreck from cof-
1 fee drinking and was on the point of
giving up my position is the school
; room because of nervousness.
"I was telling a friend about it and
she said, 'We drink nothing at meal
Ume but Postum, and it ia such a com-
fort to have something we can enjoy
j drinking with the children.'
"I was astonished that she would
! allow the children to drink any kind
; of coffee, but she said Postum was
j not coffee, but a most healthful drink
i for children as well as for older ones,
i and that the condition of both the chil-
dren and adults showed that to be a
j fact.
"I was In despair and determined
j to give Postum a trial, following the
j directions carefully. It was a decided
| success and I fas completely won by
ita rich delicious flavor.
"In a short time 1 noticed a decided
Improvement in my condition and kept
growing better month after month,
until now I am healthy, and do my
work in the school room with ease and
pleasure. 1 would not return to nerve-
destroying coffee for any money."

graters, but Shorthorn and Red Poll
cows the best milkers. The Aber-
(Jeen-Angus are good grazers and fat-
ten well. Farmers' bulletin 612,
"Breeds of Beef Cattle," which can be
had on application to the United
States department of agriculture, con-
tains infor—"tion of use in reaching a
decision, but the county agent, or th«
state agricultural college, should be
consulted. The decision Is an Impor-
tant one.
If, for any reason, the formation of
a boll club is not possible, another
way to get service to a good bull is to
patronize one owned by some stock-
man in the neighborhood. Service
fees of one to two dollars are usually
charged. In the case of a club a
somewhat smaller fee should be
charged the members and paid Into
the club treasury. The man who keeps
the bull should be allowed free serv-
ice.
If It is worth while to have good cat-
tle. It la worth while to take good
care of them. The bull requires a
good pasture for grating and exer-
| April, but in Virginia they are often
planted earlier. Do not plant until the
ground has become warm.
Plant two seeds In a hill, and make
the hills three feet apart, or they can
be planted in checkrows.
Keep the ground loose and mellow
with cultivator and hoe until the plant
begins to make little rootlike pods
which later develop Into nuts. After
that ail the work that Is necessary is
enough to keep down the weeds.
In the South many growers cover
the bloom as soon as It develops, but
In Kansas that is seldom done, and
good crops are raised there.
Peanuts are harvested with a four-
tined fork. The fork Is stuck Into the
ground under the hill, w hich Is then
gently loosened up and pulled out with
the hands.
The nuts should be placed In a dry
room—the hayloft makps a good store-
house—and when they are thoroughly
dry and clean they are ready for mar-
ket
Nuts should be put up In bags hold-
ing about one hundred pounds
