COLD STORGE AND SPECULA-
TTON
PORTSMOUTH. \. H.. Herald)

Portsmouth. y. H.. Herald)
According TO an exchange, the
apple spectators have overshot the
mark and are slated for heavy
shrinkage on what they might have
taken for their stores, If not on their
original investment. Ii is stated
that Feb. l found 10000 barrels
in cold storage and that the whole
sale price had dropped $3.50 a bar
rel, causing a shrinkage in profits
aggregating 100000. This shrink
age has not yet been felt by con-
sumers. but il is claimed that the
retail dealers drawing their supplies
from cold storage have been buying
for considerably less than they were
obliged TO pay earlier in the season.
The apple crop last year was not
so large as it is some times, but ap-
parently the shortage was not 50
great as represented. If It is true
that there were 5000. 900 barrels in
cold storage at the beginning of this
month, it shows that spectators
were confident that there was an
opening for big profits in storing
and holding them. and if they have
Overdone the thing they will receive
little sympathy, although their VEN
ture was as legitimate as any other
speculation. They did nothing but
what they had a perfect right TO do.
They took their chances, and the
proba bility is that they will not lose
money. They will simply not make
as much as they had hoped 10, for
apples are something that have their
season. They cannot be held indefi-
nitely like wool, cotton and other
non-p erishable articles. And while
apples are a very valuable food
staple, they are something that peo-
pie can get along without. There
is a limit TO the price they will pay
1t would be a relief to consumers
if it were to develop one Of these
days that there were more potatoes
on hand than is commonly supposed.
There were rumors early in the
season that farmers and spectators
were storing them 10 hold for higher
prices, but if such was the case it
would seem that they would not need
TO hold them any longer, for the
price is now far beyond all records
Of recent years. And the time is
not so far distant when new pota-
toes will take possession Of the mar
ket, regardless of the size of the old
stocks on hand.
There have been complaints
against cold storage because it is
used by spectators, but this COM
plant is not we'll based. The fact
is that cold storage is one of the
most useful developments Of modern
times 1t enables the people to have
many products at certain times of
the year at prices far less than they
would otherwise have to pay, and is.
on the whole, a public blessing. If
/ spectators use il they must take
their chances, as it seems some of
the apple dealers have done and
/ lost.

We exDOrt about one-se


our production. so our consumption
in 1915 was 100000 barrels.
The principal uses of gasoline to-
day are as follows:
Automobiles. motor boats, motor
cycles and air craft; stationary in
ternal-combustion engines; tractors
and other portable units; general in
dustrial and household uses.
None of these uses have yet reach
ed a stage where their future can be
accurately fOrecasted.
The increase in the use of heavier
fuel oils for steam purposes on rail
roads, in the naval and merchant
marine service, and in industrial
plants, has developed on a large
scale during this peroid. Between
1906 and 1912 the consumption Of
fuel oil by railroads alone in the
United States increased more than
100 per cent. Since the latter year
this consumption has. however, re-
manned practically stationary at
about $1,000, 900 barrels annually.
The price Of gasoline has increased
at great strides during the past year
On Jan. l, 1915, the price was -
cents per gallon, while on Jan. 1.
1916, it had advanced to 81 cents
gallon, and has continued to in
crease since.
The rise in price is due largely
to the increased demand and the
fact that the production of crude oil
has been generally regarded as near
its maximum. Relief however, is
expected to come through various
processes. and while consumption is
bound to increase, it is not likely
that the price will go much higher.
