AgsM PEANUTS 
Culture There are many sections in California suitable for grow- 
ing peanuts. They require but little water and are a 
profitable crop to grow between the rows of young orchards not yet 
producing. A sandy loam is most desirable or a light porus soil that 
will readily clean from the nut when harvested. Plant when frosts are 
over so that the young plants will not be injured, about the first week 
in April until the first of June, which should mature about October. 
Plant the Virginia in rows 3 feet apart and the plants 18 inches apart, 
dropping not less than two kernels. The Spanish can be planted in 
rows 2 feet apart and about | foot apart in the row, covering the 
seed to 3 inches deep. Peanuts are resistant to nematodes and will 
produce good crops when black eyed beans have failed from nema- 
tode infestation. Peanut straw is beneficial to the soil.

AYM ROSELLE 
CULTURE: Sow early in April on 
4 feet apart in rows 6 feet 
apart. Always use the early va- 
riety because the late varieties 
may not mature before frost. 
We offer only the early variety. 
It is easily grown from seed if 
planted after ground is warm. 
The calyx surrounding the 
seed pod is used for making 
jelly and jam, which is consid- 
ered by many to be superior to 
Guava or Currant jelly. It is 
grown extensively in Australia 
and the Famous Queensland 
jelly is shipped to all parts of 
the world. 
After the flower petals fall 
remove calyxes from seed pod. 
To four solid quarts of calyxes 
add 1 quart of cold water; boil 
until tender. Strain through 
cheese cloth, but do not, 
squeeze. Measure the juice by 
the cup; measure an equal 
number of cups of sugar, which 
should be placed in the oven to 
heat. Boil the juice 20 minutes, 
add the hot sugar, boil 3 min- 
utes, strain once more into 
glasses. (Pkt. 10c) (oz. 50c)
