PEANUTS

Imports of more than $4,000, 900
worth of peanuts and peanut-oil in a
single year is new record for the
United States, one of the worlds big
scsl producers of peanuts. The phe-
nomcnal record, says a statement by
the National City Bank of New York,
grows out of the New-World demand
for food oils to take the place of ami
NAL fats. For several years, con-
tinucs the banks statement, we have
been importing large quantities of GER
tain food oils, especially those pro-
1uced from the cocanut, of which the
quantity imported has grown from
5S,000,000 pounds in 1914 to 356,O00,-
900 in 1918, while the value of all veg
etable oils imported jumped from
S24,000,00O in 1914 to $123, 5000, 900 in
1919, and approximately $l4O,OOO,OO0
IN 1920.
But it is left to the humble pea
nut to show a squirt in the race for
popularity in supplying vegetable fats
IN the fiscal year 1920, and the guam
tity of peanut-oil imported into this
great peanut producing country of
ours, was. in the ten months ending
With April. 1920, l9,O0O,OOO gallons
against less than 5000. 900 in the cor
responding months Of last year, and
less than 100000 in the year pre-
ceeding the war. Not only was there
an enormous increase in the quantity,
but there was also a corresponding
Increase in the importation of pea
nuts, of which the imports in the ten
months ending with April, 1920. were
valued at $l0.O0O,0OO against less
than $1,O00,000 in the same months
= of 1919. In the single month of April
the latest for which details are avail
able, the imports of peanuts aggre-
gated 30,O0O,OOO pounds, valued at
$3,00O,0OO and those of the oil $780,
900 gallons, valued at $4,27s. 900 most
of the nuts and oil, coming from ia.
pan and in lesser quantities from
3 China.
Not only has the quantity impor.
Ted greatly increased. but the price
paid paid abroad for these foreign
peanuts" has advanced, the average
import price of peanuts having near.
iy doubled and that of oil increased
about fifty per cent during the year
despite the very large increase iI
quantity.
The Bureau of Crop Estimate.
puts the total farm value of the pea
nut crop of the United States in 1915
at $S0.OOO.OOO.

MOTHER DIES A MARTYR
TO HER MOTHER.LOvE

The following story of tragedy
in real life has the merit las story
| of being true. II is taken from the
! Chicago Herald Examiner and is only
another Of those pitiful tragedies
that are often enacted among the toll
ing millions that make up the bulk
of the population of the cities. Cen
orally these tragedies are unrccord-
ed, but now and then the daily press
prints one and thus adds another
recorded chapter to the Short and
simple annals of the poor" This is
the story:
1t was little home, but it housed
IA big family. Walter Wasiewki
the father, worked hard as "a factory
laborcr. His wife pinched every penny.
But try as they would, there was
never enough to go around.
The little mother didn't mind, for
herself. 1t was the children's condi-
tion that panied her. Alice, Wanda,
and Walter Jr., always were hungry
and lily clothed. Their health and
future were endangered.
She begged her husband to let her
work in the factory.
81 could never face friends" he told
her, "if they knew ! could not sup
port my family. would rather we all
starved"
One night, before her husband re-
turned home, the little mother went
out alone. And sho did not return un-
til past midnight.
She refused to say where she had
been, or what she had been doing,
.Jealously seized him. He beat her and
sent her to bed weeping. But next
day, when he had gone to work, the
produced a mysterious supply of
money and gave the children boun-
teous meal.
The next night she crept forth
again. Another beating followed for
the little mother, and more secret
bounty for her children--some warm
underwear this time. And thus it
continued night after night,
beating after beating and bounty af-
ter bounty for the children. Grad
ually their little cheeks filled out and
they began to laugh.
Mother Love was conquering both
Pride and Poverty-but how? The
question infuriated the husband. His
wife's silence famed the fires of jeal-
Ously within him. Yesterday he &C.
cused her again. When she persisted
in her silence, he ordered Alice to
take the other children out for a walk.
What happened can only be conjec-
tured. But when the children re-
turned, they found her dead. And
their father lay dying beside her body.
His hand clutched revolver.
The children told the police of his
accusations against the mother. De-
tectives investigated and discovered
she had been working nights at the
factory of Strauss & Schram, 1135
West Thirty fifth street.

TIGHT MONEY MARKET
KNOCKS DAT PRICE
q Prices Offered Here Declines From
90c Early In Season to 65c
Tuesday OF This Week

According to f.. w. Stewart, head
= II the Durant Grain e. Elevator Co.
largest buyers of oats in southeastern
Oklahoma, the tightness of the money
.maript in the east is the cause of the
'r1er.ines in the price offered for oats
"Oats opened early in the season
at ninety cents per bushcl, but were
bringing only sixty-five cents Tues
day of this week. The quality is
holding up well Mr.. Stewart says.
Formerly, the past few years there
wss "A big demand for the crop as soon
AS thrrshcd and every big buyer had
the cash to pay for what he bought,
limited only to his credit rating. This
year the money market in the east
where surplus funds are stored, has
been tighter than in several years.
The result is that the country buyer.
like local buyers, who used to he able
60 sell what he baught any and every
where, now has first to find man
with the cash to pay. He might
ask, say, 80 cents bushel for his
oats, the big buyer knowing that
there are few big buyer who can
buy, then offers say seventy -Avc or
seventy cents, and whatever he offers
is the best the country buycr can
get. This situation has p.shrd the
market down more than one third the
past few weeks.
