SOUTHERN CALIFORNIAN. SATURDAY, JANUARY 6, 1872. ESSAY ON PEANUTS. MATURE AND PREPARATION OF SOIL. The soil should be a rich, sandy loam, not too much, but capable of holding a fair crop of corn; for if it is too rich, the tendency of the plant will be to run to vine. Spread broadcast, from twenty-five to thirty horse loads of any well-rot-manure worked fine (vegetable matter generally preferred, though stable manure will not come per acre before plowing, or plow four or five inches deep under the manure as evenly possible; then spread broadcast or fifty bushels of shell lime or acre; harrowing with a light tooth harrow, and brush or roll tooth; then mark off the field in five feet squares; have the rows straight, making the marks about ten inches deep, or raise a slight hill at the intersection of the mark. PLANTING. Shell the nuts carefully, so as to break the skin, drop three to five grains in the hill; drop the grains together, as in cultivating early crops necessary to work as close to the roots as possible, and not injure the root. Cover one and a half, or two inches deep with well pulverized soil. Writeers on this subject recommend five inches, but my experience three seasons here, has proved that depth I have mentioned, as general rule, is the best on my land. A portion of my patch did not come up, (owing to too deep watering), until the middle of June; though I planted immediately after about the 15th of May. Planting should be done as soon as possi- CULTIVATION. As soon as the rows can be seen, begin to work the ground around the plant. Use a potato digger or all iron to trake, those tools being much better for the purpose than a hoe, as there is less danger of cutting the plant. Cultivate between the rows with some tool that will throw the dirt slightly towards the hill. I use Knox's Horse Hoe, knowing the earth first to the center, then reversing the teeth and moving the earth outward. As fingers or shoots of the plant need (which they do in a circular manner) I hill up, but do not disturb the shoots, making the hills about four inches high, and at the last time the hills are from fifteen to twenty inches across. The idea advanced by some, of covering the blossom with dirt, or soil, I found by actual experiment, to be useless. It is true that the shoots were pressed more firmly to the ground, and perhaps caused the small root from the blossom to start much quicker, but all the nuts on those hills were smaller than the rest of the crop—there were also more nuts on the hills covered; but as I stated, all smaller at maturity. No grass or weeds should be allowed to grow during the vines, as they are very sensitive on such matters. When the cultivator can no longer be used without disturbing the plants, they must be worked by hand. Cultivating and hoeing twice is generally sufficient. HARVESTING In climates where the growing season is long enough, there is no trouble, but here it is necessary to watch the weather, and if the crop is exposed, after gathering, on the frost, it must be housed without delay, as a slight stopping will cause them to rot before they can dry. If they can be left on the hills after digging for a week, through the better furrow, HARVESTING In climates where the growing season is long enough, there is no trouble, but here it is necessary to watch the weather, and if the crop exposed, after gathering, the frost, it must be housed without delay, as a slight damping will cause them to rot before they can dry. If they can be left on the hills after digging, for a week, much the better, but, for the last two seasons, I have been forced to up my vines sooner than I wish for fear of frost. As soon as frost sets in the vines dig the nuts, using a seeding fork, placing it at one side of the hill and prying out the hill; at the same time take hold of the soil with one hand and lift it, shake the dirt and turn the vine up down on the hill; leave as dug several days, if no frost, if frosty buds in at once and put under cover. Pick off the nuts as soon as possible, or if left on the vines in a moist state, the nuts will heat and rot. Spread thinly on a floor, if possible, over a room in which there is a fire kept and no plastered ceiling. I once by putting them on the slatted floor of my hop kiln, having a cloth on the slate and a fire in the room below. The hot air passing through them soon dry, when I put them in loose bags or in a bin—they keep bitter in bags. GENERAL REMARKS. The nuts must be shelled just before planting, as if exposed too long on the fair, the skin will crack and injure the seed. One of the main points is to start the plants early and keep them growing without check. Careful cultivation and proper manure will do it. My yield last season from twelve hundred hills, was nine bushels of sound nuts; this season from twenty five hundred hills, but thirteen bushels. which nine were sound nuts, owthe unfavorable season. A man appears to sink their naent, after they get a start. We sent it stated, that in the own States, the yield varies firty to fifty bushels per acre. Yours Truly, J. H. Dowler. The object of plowing w, is this, the nut will not until the end of the root the hard ground. — Vineland Independent. Viceroy of Egypt shows of madness. General Merchandise.
