To stack peanuts select a stout pole eight to ten feet high, set firmly in the ground and nail two cross pieces about a foot above tho ground. The Pignut vines should be gathered be fore they dry out and piled about the pole. The first vines are placed on the cross pieces with the nuts toward the polo and tie staek should be one vine thick as measured from the pole. The stacks are made as high as one can conveniently reach and the tops capped with grass to keep the birds from the nuts at the top of the stack.

In unloading grasp the poles below the cross pieces, and shake tho entire stack on the picker or thresher.
