dirt and trash as possible.
mat IN order to secure this condi-
tlon careful investigation of the
held is necessary to see that the crop
digging.
Stack after digging as soon as
dirt is sufficiently dry to shake off
from the vines. A loss in weight of
around ten per cent will be incurred
by leaving them exposed to. the sun
long enough for the stem connecting
the pod to the vine to become dry, as
this will stop the circulation of sap
from the vine to the kernal, causing
the kernal to shrivel, which, if
stacked green, would fill out. If the
vines are stacked green around poles
on cross pieces high enough from the
ground to give free circulation, the
nuts to the center, bright nuts and
hay of good quality will invariably
be secured. They should not be pick
ed from the vine until thoroughly
cured and dry, remaining from four
to six weeks in the stack See that
there is a recleaner on the picking
machine, and do not try to sell dirt
and trash.
Reduce the cost of harvesting by
using a tool Of some kind to dig
with instead of pulling the vines. A
common turning plow with the mold
board or wing removed will do.
Use system in your work-put GER
tain ones of the hands at stacking,
others at punching, and others at
carrying to the stack.
Leaving the vines on the ground to
cure will cause many kernels to
shrivel that would otherwise fill out.
The nuts will become discolored and
the hay practically worthless.
Avoid stacking when vines are wet
with dew or rain. If the cross pieces
are to near the ground it means
mouldy nuts.
Treat the peanut crop as well as
you do cotton and the other crops and
it will pay you fully as well.
Full directions on harvesting pea
nuts will gladly be furnished on re-
quest by the Information De-
