PEANUT ANI> SOY BEAN OIL. i
I
Regarding the I'se of These (Yops by
the Oil Mills.
In addressing the feed control officials
of the country at Washington.
D. C., on November 17. Dr. B. W. KilgoTe,
State chemist of North Carolina.
gave out some very timely and
interesting information regarding the
crushing of peanuts and soy beans by
the cottonseed oil mills.
Peanuts are crushed both in the
hulls and after being hulled. The
presence o? the hulls seems to permit
of extraction of the oil more satisfactorily.
The Spanish or small peanuts
are chiefly used. One ton of
in tho hulls aives about 70
j;canuio jtt i?iv c- _ .
co SO gallons of oil and 1,300 to 1,400
pounds of meal or cake. The
balance, around 100 pounds, is waste
or loss.
The meal contains from 30 to 35
%
per cent, of protein and 6 to S per
cent, of fat.
When hulled peanuts are used, 100
to 115 gallons of oil is extracted and
there is 1.100 to 1,200 pounds of
meal. This meal contains 40 to 50
per cent, protein.
The cold process of extracting the
oil seems best. Not quite so much
oil is obtained, but it is of a better
quality. Some have first extracted
the oil by the cold process and then
cooked and repressed the material
getting an additional quantity of oil
of a poor quality.
The cotton oil mills of North Carolina
crushed about 125,000 bushels
of soy beans in 1915. We under
stood Dr. Kiigore to say a iuu ui
beans yielded 30 gallons of oil and
1,650 pounds of meal, but this would
only account for 1,875 pounds and
leave a waste of 125 pounds. The
waste is not usually over 50 to 75
pounds. Authorities usually give the
oil yield at from 35 to 38 gallons.
A most remarkable statement was
made by Dr. Kiigore regarding the
effect of feeding peanut meal to hogs,
on the firmness and quality of the
carcass.
It is a well known fact that when
hogs are fed on peanuts the carcass
is soft, the lard being so soft and
having such a low melting point of
temperature that the buyers discriminate
against such hogs to the
amount of a cent a pound or more.
Dr. Kiigore stated that when peanut
cake or peanut meal was ted the pork
was as firm as when corn is used.
While it is known that the feeding
of some corn while the hogs are on
peanuts, or the feeding of corn and
cottonseed meal for a period before
sal? or slaughter, will greatly harden
and improve the carcass and raise
the melting point of the lard, if the
feeding - of peanut meal does away
with all the bad effects along this
line which are experienced when
whole peanuts are used the fact opens
up a splendid field of usefulness for
this Southern legume crop. We need
a protein feed for hogs more than
any other feedstuff, and if peanut
meal supplies this and the mills can
press out the oil without change in
machinery there ought to be a large
increase in the peanut crop, especially
in those sections having light soils,
where the peanut is known to do
well.
It is to be hoped that further investigation
will confirm this most important
statement. If the meal does
not produce a soft pork, while the
whole nut does, it would seem that
it is not the character of the oil but
the excess of it which produces the
undesirable effect.?Progressive Far

, Fall Sowed Grain.
Early planted oats, wheat and rye
may be benefited by judicious pasturing:
but taking the matter as a
whole it is probable that our fall
sowed cereals are injured by the pasturing
they receive. They are usually
sowed so late that they do not make
v sufficient growth to enable them to
lose any of this growth without positive
injury. A certain amount of
growth is necessary to develop a root
system which will enable the plants to
withstand the winter and start a vigorous
growth next spring. Too early
pasturing manifestly prevents the
growth necessary to develop the required
root system.
Too close grazing has the same effect,
and during winter close grazing
also tends to expose the plants more
so that greater injury by severe
freezing is probable.
It is also true that close grazing,
on a loose soil, before the plants
have developed a large root growth.
may result in the plants being actually
pulled out of the soil by the teeth
of the grazing animals. But owing
to our open winters it is probable
that the greatest injury to our fall
sowed crops, caused by grazing, results
from the tramping of the stock
in wet weather. Some one has said
that the animal has only one mouth
with which to graze the plants, but
four feet to tramp them into the soft
soil. There can be no manner of
doubt about the importance of keeping
the livestock off ^he fall sowed
cereal and pasture crops during wet
winter weather, especially on stiff or
