Peanuts 
Peanuts can be successfully grown in the North on warm, 
sandy soil in a sheltered place with a southern exposure. 
Plant the same as corn, in rows 2J4 feet apart. Drop the 
shelled nuts 8 to 10 inches apart, cover 1 inch deep. When 
the plants are nearly full grown, throw earth up to them. 
This will cause the nuts to form.

Peas 
(Pisello, Chiaroso, Erbsen) 
CULTURE—One pound will plant 50 feet of drill; 90 
to 120 pounds for an acre. Peas do best in a light, rich 
loamy soil that has been liberally manured the previous 
season. Plant the smooth varieties as early as the ground 
can be worked. The wrinkled peas are not so hardy as the 
smooth kinds, and should be planted later; they are, how¬ 
ever, sweeter and better flavored. For a succession, plant 
every two weeks—until June 1st, then discontinue until 
August 1st, when the extra early varieties may be planted 
for a fall crop. When grown for market, peas are rarely 
staked; in small gardens grow in double rows, 12 inches 
apart, and stake with brush. They should be kept clean 
and the earth worked toward them two or three times 
during growth.
