2'9—We have been growing 
peanuts in South Dakota for a long 
time and the variety we are offer- 
ing is early enough to get ripe ina 
normal season. Nuts are small and 
of fine flavor. Pods usually con- 
tain two kernels, with many pods 
on the vines. 
This Early Northern variety will 
stand lots of dry weather and still 
yield an immense crop of delicious 
nuts. Plan on planting some pea- 
nuts for the children. With each 
order for peanuts, we give fuil in- 
structions for planting and. care. 
This assures you of good results. 
Peanuts are é¢asy to grow, easy 
to roast, and easy to cat. If you 
don't think so, take a pan of home 
grown peanuts, put them in the 
oven for about 30 minutes and eat 
while they are still hot. Good! 
Of course they are, and that is a 
wonderful way to pass some of the 
long winter evenings. Triple Size
