PEANUTS 
Peanuts do best on a light, sandy soil. The ground 
should be ploughed deeply and thoroughly harrowed. 
Seed peanuts should be carefully hulled to prevent break- 
ing the skin on the kernels. Plant in rows 2% to 3 feet 
apart and 12 inches in the row. Cover about 2 inches. 
When matured, pull up and dry in the sun a few days. 
Vines are a valuable feed for horses, cattle and sheep.
