every point, which produces the finest 

 nuts, not being crowded as they are 

 around the roots. Under most favorable 

 condition the plants will not reach over 

 four feet in radiating. 



"The plants are very prolific. Three 

 quarts to the one kernel planted is an 

 average yield. 



' ' They require a well prepared soil, 

 six to eight inches deep and not too 

 sandy — a soil that is retentive of mois- 

 ture. They want Hme and potash, which 

 are best given by using acid phosphate 

 in the trench before covering the seed. 

 They must have good, clean cultivation 

 until the laterals drop. Plant three feet 

 apart each way, from March 15 to May. 

 Harvest in October, or after light frost, 

 •which checks growth and ripens the 

 nuts. 



' ' They require a longer season to 

 grow than the average peanut, owing to 

 their mammoth size. They are now 

 much larger than the originals." 



The Review is the best and most up- 

 to-date florists' paper in my oflSce. No 

 florist can afford to be without it.— John
