THE PEANUT CROP
A BIG ACREAGE

Few crops have experienced such
rapid growth in acreage and produc-
ton as has the peanut during recent
years. And the South is the greatest
gamer. Unknown commercially be-
fore 1870, the Agricultural Depart
ments reports the yield reached 45,-
$4,000 bushels raised on 100000
acres in 1918.
Adecided slump in both production
and acreage occurred in the past sea-
son, with only 1.251,00O acres planted,
resulting in yield of about 33,2e0,0eo
bushels. The price of peanuts was so
much greater in 1919 than in the pre-
ceding year, however, that. according
to the Bureau of Crop Estimates, the
total farm value on December i, 1919,
was SIS, ,S39, 900, or only $4,000 less
than the total value in 1918.
The peanut market this year thus
far has been steady, having neither
sudden drop or abr lpt advances as ex-
perieneed in former years.
The rapid growth of the peanut in
iustry has caused a brisk increase in
the development of peanut by-pro-
ducts, among the most important of
which are peanut oil, peanut meal,
peanut halls and peanut fiour.-MaEu-

OKLAHOMA BEST IN
LONG RANGE FIRING

With the reports incomplete. but
sufficiently in detail for fairly con-
elusive estimates. computations made
at the Navy Department show that
The Oklahoma, OF the Atlantic feet.
made the best records for battleships
in iong-range firings during the prae-
fice year for gunnery ended June so.
Cant. n. E. Irwin commands the yes
sci with Commander George Mccall
Courts as gunnery officer.
Preliminary indications were that
the battleship Idaho. of the Pacific
feet. which fired at unusually long
ranges. would have a high record.
but later reports show that the rec
ords of that vessel are not as high
as had been expected. The other yes
sells of the Pacific feet that COM
peted the gunnery course are the New
Mexico and Mississippi
AS the gun crews were made up of
large proportion of new men, and
gunnery exercises TO an appreciable
extent did not commence until last
January, the gunnery records for last
year are not TO be considered on a
competitive basis, and the gunnery
trophy will not be awarded for that
year.
However, engineering performances
were conducted on competitive
basis, and records showing economy
in expenditure of fuel lubricating oil
and other engineering supplies were
kept. Awards for excellence in en-
gineering will be made in the several
classes.
With the records and computations
not entirely complete. there are in
dications that the following are the
leaders Battleship New Mexico, flag
ship of the Pacific feet, commanded
by Capt. A. l.. Willard, with Lieut..
Comdr. p. l.. Carroll as engineer Of
ficer: destroyer Biddle. commanded
by Commander Leigh Noyes. with
Lieut.. w. G. Lebegue as engineer Of
ficer, and in the cruiser and gunboat
class the cruiser ALBANY, command
ed by Capt. w c. Watts. with Lieut..
w. H. Langdon as engineer officer.
During this fiscal year full sched-
ules for gunnery and engineering OF
all ships in full commission are being
prepared, and the records thereof will
be considered on a competitive basis
under conditions similar to those that
prevailed before we entered the war.
Trophies will be awarded for excel
Ience in gunnery and engineering, and
the battle efficiency pennant will be
given TO the vessel that has the best
combined records in gunnery and en-
gineering.

with downpour OF rain and the end

Although the storm did not begin un-

every thing had been secured. anu the

No doubt many of the partons of the
carnival noticed two elderly men who
were taking an active part in the
operation OF the various booths These
men were the oldest of the company,
and both have boen members since the
company was chartered, and are
Messrs. Thomas Sherlock and John
Frank. Both are fully fifteen or
twenty years older than any of the
other members, but still are on the ac-

Raise For Trolley Lines

This means that the freight rates
on the Annapolis Short Line and the
W.. B. and A. will be increased TO the
same extent as are those of rail lines
in the Baltimore territory Nothing
is said in the report about increases
in the passenger rates either on the
boat lines or the electric lines, and
il is assumed that existing tariffs will
remain in effect Notwithstanding in
creased passenger rates on the trunk
lines. However. boat and electric
lines may yet make individual appli-
cation for revised passenger tariff, as
the w, B. and A. successfully made
recently to the commission.
The Decision Summarized
Summarized, the commissions de-
cision means:
A 40 per cent increase in freight
rates in Eastern territory, 20 per cent.
in Southern territory, 35 per cent. in
Western territory and % per cent.
increase in the Mouhtain-Pacific
group.
A 20 per cent. increase in passen-
ger fares, which means an addition

charge amounting to so per cent

The cost of the Pullman or sleeping

A 20 per cent. increase in excess
baggage rates. if9
A 20 per cent. increase in the rate
on milk and cream. whether carried
by freight or passenger trains.
The Increased charges on freight
alone were estimated as equaling a
levy of $12 per capita per annum for
every man, woman and child in the
country, basing the nations popula-
ion at los, 100000 for 1920, recently
made by the Census Bureau.
East To Pay Most lt
In the freight rate increases the

Awards 40 per cent. .8f
The roads asked for an increase. OF
1891 per- cent. in Southern territory
but only 25 per cent. is allowed This
apparently is on the theory that the

earnings for the first five months OF
this year, according to recent figures
issued by the commission.
