annual vines such as morning glory,
the hyacinthe bean, the searldl run-
ner and its white flowered relative,
the lacy drapery of the cardinal
climber, cypress vines, climbing nas-
turtiums or even the wild cucumber,
the decorative value of which is well
recognised although it is so common
as to become a nuisance at times.
The annual vines have on advant-
age in that they not only provide a
handsome background of foliage, but
also give a fine display of flowers.
They are, for the most part, twiners
and need either strings or a length of
chicken wire fencing for support.
The wild cucumber has tendrils
which attach it to any support avail-
able. The climbing nasturitium,
while giving a wealth of foliage and
bloom is not properly a climber as it
has no means of supporting itself.

come a vital part of our agricultural
production is told in the February
2nd issue of Farm and Ranch which

of the agricultural extension work-
ers of this country. Practically oil
of this issue is devoted to telling how
the work was organised, carried on
and how it operates today in a quiet,
unassuming but forceful manner.

Washington. —While the acreage
in peanuts has been substantially in-
creased in the United States in re-
cent years, many farmers fail to ap-
preciate the value of the peanut as a
food for man and animal, Dr. H. D.
Jones, nutrition expert of the depart
ment of agriculture, declares.
Scientific experiments have shown,
Dr. Jones says, that peanut proteins
are among the highest in nutritive
quality. Most proteins when digest
ed yield 18 or 20 substances called
amino acids, several of which are es-
sential for the normal growth and
nutrition of animals. Proteins of
poor quality are those that are de-
ficient in one or more of these essen-
tial amino acids.
“The bureau of chemistry and
soils has found that peanuts contain
two proteins—arachin and conara-
chin,” says Dr. Jones. “Both contain
all of the essential amino acids. Pea-
nut meal, or peanut press cake, there
fore serve as an excellent concen-
trate for mixing with corn or cereal
feeds to supplement their defieiences.
“Peanuts fed to hogs often pro-
duce a ‘soft’ pork which is undesir-
able and which does not command a
high market price. Much of this,
pork tendency can be eliminated, how
ever, by expelling the oil and feeding
the remaining press cake or peanut
meal, to the hogs. This meal con-
tains from 34 to 38 per cent protein
and some cases -as high as 58 per
cent.”
Every part of the peanut plant can
be used to advantage, Dr. Jones says.
The vines* properly cured, make
hay with a feeding value equal to or
better than clover or alfalfa. Shell-
ed peanuts contain from 40 to 50 per
cent of oil that compares favorably
with olive oil for ordinary purposes.
“If the general public were educat-
ed to the great value of peanuts as a
feed for human beings, the farmer in
the south could grow more with
more profit,” he declares. “A bread
made of a mixture of 25 parts pea-
nut flower and 75 parts wheat flour
is a very nutritious and palatable
food. In experimental feeding of
rats, the bureau found that the rate
of growth of animals fed on peanut
bread was much greater than that of
animals on a diet of whole wheat
b>ead.”
Farmers Urged To
Plant Cucumbers
Secretary C. W. Smith of the Mc-
Kinney Chamber of Commerce has re
ceived a proposition submitted to
that organization to sponsor, if
it will, among the farmers of this
county, from the Pioneer Pickle &
Canning Co. of Fort Worth, the plant
ing of a considerable acreage of cu-
cumbers in this county on a com-
mission basis this spring.
Seed can be obtained at $1.00 per
pound, handled in pound packages.
This campany states that it ex-
pects to use from 600 to 1,000 tons of
cucumbers during the present seas-
on and guarantees certain prices to
the growers who plant and sell to
them.
President O. A. Reese states that
it is his understanding that cucum-
bers grow well in this black land and
farmers interested should investigate
this opportunity of growing another
kind of crop in adition of their reg-
ular staple crops.

On the 5th of February, Texas cel-
ebrated the silver anniversary of the
organized effort on the part of the
government to solve the problems of
agriculture. Beginning in Texas 25
years ago the development of the
county agent system, along with the
state and national experiment sta-
tions, this work has spread to all
parts Of the nation. A few farmers
and a still smaller group of folks
living in towns and cities realize
what it is all about. Yet this course
has contributed millions of dollars to
the nation’s wealth through practical
help rendered to the farmers of this
country during the past 25 years.
What Happens When
Advertising Ceases
A generation ago “St. Jacob’s Oil”
was one of the most widely adver-
tised products in America. It was a
patent medicine enjoying enormous
sales. When Charles Vogeler, the
head of this business, died, an "ex-
pert” went over the balance sheets
and saw the enormous advertising ap
propriation.
This “expert” trimmed the adver-
tising expenditures to little of noth-
ing, reasoning that St. Jacob’s Oil
was so well known that it was un-
necessary to spend money any longer
to advertise it. Orders dwindled as
advertising contracts ran out; busi-
ness departed, never to return and it
is safe to speculate that hardly one
in fifty who reads this articule re-
members or ever heard of St, Jacob’s
Oil, one of the best-known products
on the continent 35 yearB ago.
A similar thing happened to James
Pyle’s “Pearline”—a compound which
used a $500,000 advertising fund as
far back as 1904 and was one of the
best-konwn products in the entire
world. The ad fund was “lopped
off”; the business went dead. It
tried unsuccessfully to make a come-
back in 1914, and sold its plant for
junk to a large soap manufacturer.
Killing off the ad appropriation
wrecked both of these prosperous
businesses and it would do the same
thing to almost any great advertis-
ing concern today. —St. Louis (Mo.)

Vines Furnish
Backgrounds
With the constantly growing inter-
est in decorative gardening, the back
ground for the flower garden or
flower border has become one of
greatest importance. Shrubbery or
a hedge furnishes the ideal back-
ground but very often it is impracti-
cal because of lack of space or for
some other reason to have both shrub
bery and a flower garden;
Vines offer the easy solution of
the background problem in such
cases and annual vines in particular
will give quick effect and furnish a
curtain of attractive foliage to act
as back drop for the scenery of the
garden. Space along a boundary
