The Storage Battery ls Supposedly a
Complicated Continuance, but tie
Very Simple to Understand.

This causes evaporation, and the cleo
trolyte must be replenished with dis
titled water to Its accustomed level.
All wiring on the car should be
periodically inspected for damaged in
sulation, especially II acid has been
spilled upon 1t by any mishap, for the
acid eats through the wire insulation
in q very short time. Bear In mind
that the electrical power In battery
is limited, and everything done to con-
serve it will mean saving Of expense
and labor. All movable contacts
should be cleaned frequently, for dirt,
grease, and foreign substances prevent
the controller working properly and
prevent good contact being made,
which wastes current. The gearing
and wheels should be looked over and
creased about once a year.
Causes of Trouble.
Dragging brakes, poor contact, un-
der-inflated tires, also cause surpris-
ing amount Of trouble.

In his preface to the second edition
of his work Huddy says:
"Two striking and important prfn-
ciples of law concerning the motor
vehicle have been established since
the first edition appeared.
"The first and most important Is
that the automobile Is not an agency
dangerous per Sc and to be classed
with combustibles, explosives, infiam-
mable substances, firearms, vicious
animals and the like. All the courts
Of highest resort before which this
question has arisen have been har-
monious in their decisions supporting
this view."

HUGE PEANUT CROP
PROMISED In INDIA
Estimated Yield in One Presi-
dency Is $4,000 Tons
Of Unshelled.

BOMBAY, Sept. 2o.--According to the
anal estimate OF tho Department OF Ag-
riculture OF the Government of Madras
Presidency Of the peanut crop for the
present year, there were 1.1b9.0oo acres
under cultivation. This represents 1873
per cent. Of the total peanut acreage Of
British india. The estimated yield Of
this crop Is 65s,00o tons of unshelled
nuts, an average of 1852 pounds TO the
acre.
The above statistics apply to the
Madras Presidency alone. No statistics
are available for the peanut crop of any
other States or colonies.
There 10 only ono variety or peanuts
grown in Madras Presidency. which is
from Mozambique and Senegal seed in
troduced many years ago when tho So
called Indigenous variety had deterio-
rated to such an extent that its cultiva-
ton was greatly restricted. In the trade.
however. there are two qualities known,
the machine shelled kernels and the or
binary kernels. The greater portion or
the nuts produced in the country are con-
sunled by the native Of India, especially
on fast days.
In the year 1884 the yield OF pea

tons, Of which $4,000 tons were ex-
ported to foreign countries, including
the oil pressed from the nuts. In 1918
there was a crop OF 100000 tons, OF
which only $4,000 tons were exported
In 1853 the crop amounted to $4,000
tons, OF which only $4,000 tons Were
exported. In 1890. with an estimated
crop OF 653,000 tons, the exports rose TO
nearly $4,000 tons. In addition to these
exports to foreign countries there We're
large shipments to other parts OF India,
principally to Calcutta, where the oil
was pressed from the nuts for domestic
purposes. The main use of the peanut
IN southern India IL for extracting oil.
This oil IS used as a substitute and
adulterant for the almost universally
used clarified butter. which Is termed
"ghee" and is used in India for culinary.
medicinal and anointInent purposes by
practically the entire population.
There are innumerable small oil mills
IN southern India. Almost every village
has one or more Of the small native mills
nown locally as "channy." These con-
s.st of wooden mortar and pestle.
There are few small power mills in
operation and the possibilities for trade
development in this line are good.

GOO,o Face Unemployment.

The most hard hit from the depression
have been the laborers. The wholesale
discharge by factories and loss of jobs
from closing out OF many shops have
caused unemployment of n vast number
of workers. The recent investigation OF
the Home Office revealed the fact that
no less than 100000 factory operatives
have lost or are In danger OF losing their
jobs. In order to cope with the grave
situation all available means have been
resorted to, including the starting OF
many Government enterprises, such as
railroad, shipbullding. highway repairing
harbor works and sending back OF the
laborers to farms. it is estimated that
some 100000 can be returned TO farms
and 10000 can be temporarily used in
public work, but rs TO the disposal OF
the remaining $4,000, mon and women,
the Government is at n loss.
The persistent fight by laborcrs for
the enactment OF a bill allowing the or
ganizatlon of labor unions and for the
abolition OF clause In the peace reyuia-
ton which prohibits strikes as crimes
has begun TO bear fruit and the Govern
ment has drafted two bills allowing the
organization OF unions and is consider
ing the abolition OF the cursed clause.
In view OF the important place which
the labor problems are bound to assume
the Government is taking steps to estab-
lish n labor bureau under the direct
control Of the Cabinet The bureau is
expected to inaugurate new policy In
dealing with labor IL hopes 10 abolish
the prohibition Of strikes and in it,
place 10 establish an arbitration board
for disputes and 10 allow the growth OF
vholaepu,e labor unions.
