ANSWER Thanks to Janet Spangler, York Springs, for sending instructions for raising peanuts. Prepare soil like you prepare to plant a garden. Hoe out a shallow area about 12-15-inches in diameter. Buy peanuts from a seed catalog. Plant one kernel in each 12- to 15-inch area. When you shell the peanut husk, make sure you don't break the red skin on the kernel as the stalk grows and blossomr. Hoe ground up over the blossom each time a new set of blossoms appear. When the plant stops growing, you should have a mound of ground. Wait to dig up the peanut stalks until frost and the stalk turns yellow and dies. Wash ground off the stems and peanuts and hang to dry in an airy place. The blossoms make the peanuts. You can roast peanuts in the shell in the oven. Or shell and fry them for salted nuts. Salt them after they are fried.
