CHEAPER PEANUT RATES.

Jackson Miss, Feb. %. James
Hattendorff. general freight agent OF
the Illinois Central, with headquarters
at Memphis, writes R. H. Green, pres
ident of the Jackson Board of Trade,
that the rate on peanuts has been re.
duced from 62 to As cents per hundred
pounds. This is based on shipments
from Bentonia to points in Virginia.
He suggests that the matter of rates
on peanuts be taken up with the New
Orleans Great Northern for rates on
their line south of Jackson. The grow.
ing of peanuts has been seriously ham.
pered because of almost prohibitive
freight rates, and it is believed this
reduction will give impetus to the
business all over South Mississippi.
