Clemsou College, Dec. 15.?Wit) i the boll weevil present in South Caro lina, a great many farmer.? ara look ; ing about for some cash crop to tak( ! the place of cotton. Perhaps no othei ? crop is attracting so much attentioi j as the peanut. Our supply of bulle tins on peanuts has been exhausted says Prof. C. P. Blackwell, agrono mist, but we are preparing anothei bulletin which will soon be ready fo; distribution. We are giving below th< answers to the questions we are mos frequently asked: ' I 1. It the peanut a profitable casl crop? A. Yes, if given the proper atten ] tion, it compares favorably with col ton. I recently asked a number o farmers of Georgia and Alabama thi; question, and here are tome of theii answers: "The peanut has the bes future to it of any crop we know.' "Bankers and business men in peanu territory will testify in favor of pea nuts." "Banks are more willing t( ' lend money to the poor farmer an( tenant who is willing to grow a gooc crop of peanuts." "Cash returns fron peanuts haven't been so great ai from cotton before the weevil infes tation, but we have not become verj efficient in the production of peanut: ! yet At the present time peanut: 1 pay us much better than cotton un ! der weevil conditions." "Farmer: i here are in much better financial con J dition than ever and would continu* ninnt naonnfo if wpoviln wcrp nn ! IU piHUV ?? ? wv . here." 2. Do peanuts require as much la ; bor as cotton? A. No. Different farmers who hav< , had experience with both estimat< | from half as much to the sam< - amount. I 3. Are peanuts a sure crop? A. Yes. They are safer than cot ' con If given as careful attention. 4. What kind of soil is best fo; ; peanuts? ? E A. Peanuts can be grown under s wide range of soil conditions. Th< 1 best soil is a well drained sandy loan 1 with a reasonable amount of humui [ and plenty of lima. The heavier soili ; will make good yields ?f nuts, if the] E have plenty of humus and are friable t but they are not so easily cultivatec i and they may stain the nuts. Thi: >' makes the nuts less saleable but doe: not Injure them for homq uu. 1 5. What kind and amount of fer ! tilirer should be used for peanuts? ? - s* ' nuu. .aaAU. I A. Jf'Or CliO UW1W tr kli 11 a owuui i of South Carolina we recommead ai I S-S-3 fertilizer. The amount will de pend on the kind of soil Tire t< eight hundred pounds will pay beg \ on the average. On tolls that ar< I rich In organic matter an 8-2-3 fartili j zer will probably pay best. In th< i Piedmont ctlon a 9-2-3 will glv< I good results. 1 6. Is lime accessary for peanuts' A. Soils that are acid aeed lime j These are usually the soils that an ! | poorly drained or have been poorl] j drained in the past If your sol j needs lime, apply 1,000 pounds o I burnt lime or 2,000 pounds of groun( I limestone per acre. ! 7. When should peanuts be plant j ed? ! A. The best time to plant is whei | j th? soil becomes thoroughly warm ii i tnc spring. iney may uh yiM.in.cn. \ as late as July the 15th. This meani I they can be planted after a crop o i ->ats Is harvested. ! 8. What distance should be elver I them? A. The Spanish variety should b< { planted In rows 30 to 36 Inches apar [ and about S Inches between plants I For the large varieties more dlstanc< I Is better. ! 9. What variety Is best to use? | A. The White Spanish Is best foi milling and for grazing. The Vlr ginla Bunch, Red Tennessee and Va iensla are good (or home consumptloi and peanut stands. 10- How much seed are requirec i to plant aft acre? A. Of the Spanish variety on< neck shelled or one and one-half tc i two pecks unshelled. The Virginia I Bunch requires about one and one I half pecks shelled. 11. How should they be cultivat | ed? | A. Cultivation should begin imrae ! dlately after the plants are well uj II and should be continued until thej ; I begin to "peg" or form pods. Aftei I this they should not be disturbed | Never let peanuts get grassy 01 I weedy. They should have frequeni ! shallow cultivation. The sotl shoulc ! be moved gradually toward th( I plants to afford loose earth for the j "pegs" to penetrate. jl 12. Is it necessary to cover fclos ! soras with soil? A. No. The "pegs" will find thvii | way into the soil if they receive the ; proper cultivation. Covering the blossoms prevents pollination, f 13. Are there machines for plant | ing, harvesting and picking peanuts' I A. Yes. There are several ma I chines which do these various opera Hons with reasonable success. More information will be given on this point in our bulletin which is to come out soon. 14. It there a certain market foi peanuts next year? A. We feel very sure there will be .1:8 oil mills of this state claim they will need 500,000 tons to keep running all tbo year.
