PLANT 
PEANUTS 
The peanut is worthy of more 
general cultivation. The peanut 
is a soil builder and renovator. 
If included in the crop rotation 
and properly handled, peanuts are 
not exhaustive of soil fertility. 
The tops of the peanuts make fine 
hay, relished by all stock, while 
the roots furnish rich food for 
both man and stock. The best 
soil is one of a sandy, loamy na- 
ture, which has a red clay subsoil, 
as this indicates lime, which Is 
essential for this plant. They 
yield 40 to 100 bushels to the 
acre, according to how well the 
crop is managed. Peanuts should 
be shelled before planting, but can 
also be planted in the hull 16 to 
IS inches apart. They should be 
planted in April and they will 
ripen before September, even as 
far north as Canada. 
Plant in rows about 2% or 3 
feet apart, dropping the nuts 8 to 
10 inches apart, one in a hill. 
Cover one or two inches. Culti- 
vate three or four times with a 
cultivator, so as to loosen the 
earth and keep down the weeds. 
When they mature, pull them up, 
turning the roots to the sun. In 
bright weather they will be cured 
sufBclently in 24 hours. It re- 
quires two bushels in hull to 
plant an a.cre.

Mammoth Virginia Bunch 
TTnlversal and Standard Favorite 
This is the variety most generaWy grown for commercial use, and makes 
considerably larger nuts than the Spanish. The peanuts we offer are selected 
from the best and most productive crops grown, plant rather dwarf, stems 
upright, foliage rather light, pods clustered about the base of plant, usually 
two, sometimes three, seeds in a pod; pod bright and clean, color of peas 
light brown: pods adhere to plant in digging. It is the standard variety for 
roasting. They furnish excellent forage, and we recommend to all our cus- 
tomers, even if they do not plant for market, to plant at least a small patch 
of peanuts for home use or stock feeding. Hundreds of our young friends 
have written us that they have had a wonderful crop the past season.
