I received a 1099 misc for a signing bonus for a mineral lease. how is it reported

I leased mineral rights and received a 'bonus' payment when signing the lease.  I also received royalties on the production.  I received 2 1099 misc, one for the bonus, with the bonus amount shown in block 1 Rents..  For the royalties, the 1099 has the royalty amount properly in block 2.  I am having a difficult time figuring out how to enter the 'rents' 1099 into TurboTax.
