COTTON OIL MARKET
NEW YORK, June 21.-Russelrs news bureau
says: report was current in local quarters
yesterday afternoon that tallow at Chicago had
advanced q cent per pound. No confirmation
was obtained. Tallow in the local market was
a trifle stesdier at 17Ac, nominal, for city
specials, loose. A prominent local authority
says that many in the trade do not realize the
significance Of the 60 per cent area increase
in peanuts, principally in the south, where
crushing can be done. The same authority esti-
mates the peanut oil crush this year at more
than 500 600 barrels, against 10000 the past
year, depending upon the ability Of the mills to
handle the prospective big crop. The above
estimate for the peanut oil production is based
on average yields per acre and on the assump-
ton that 10 more than the usual amount will
be used for other purposes than crushing. on
last years small acreage and crop the crush
was only per cent.
An authority reports that he has handled
fair amount OF new crude oil spasmodically
but the amount of businfss doing just now L
very small even though there is a good hedging
basis. Cotton crop advices are a little better
The markets competing with cotton OIL sucl
as tAilow and some OF me foreign oil mar
kets, are now a little steadier.
