deal of moisture in them which creates
steam when the peanuts are heated,
and IN order to prevent sogginess and
make the peanuts brittle and sweet,
the steam must be let off. 1t was my
special work TO turn the crank on the
drum which would allow IL to revolve
slowly over the charcoal fire.
After had been working here for
some time | received my board as well
as the si.0O per week. which was
pretty good pay in those days. In
fact, most every boy in town wanted
to get my job away from me so that
they could have all the peanuts they
wanted to eat. They're still after my
peanuts--here in Seattle. remember
that saved sl2 while working on this

but little over 26 cents, and the trade
is waiting for the bottom.
Wheat and flour show a similar sit
uation. Within a few weeks cash
wheat has fallen eight cents a bushel
and the May wheat future is back
nearly to the 81 bushel level.
Other instances might be given.
The point is that we must now admit
that hopes Of an early spring rise
were too high, and values were
marked up too much. The advance In
commodity prices which began last
August has not carried through.
While 1t is we'll to recognize this
change in the aspect Of things, we
must not swing too far In the direc-
ton Of pessmism. Most emphatically
no crisis or severe depression Is in
sight. This may be stated confidently
and for several reasons.
ID There is no credit strain and
money is far from tight.
(2) Purchasing power is high and
retail sales are large and growing.
AS long as these conditions prevail
nothing worse than a moderate cor
rection or readjustment in the rate Of
production and in speculative values,
is to be expected.

Smith, HaSSIer & Sturm Au-
thorized Agent for PILL

made that the American Association,

during the coming baseball season the
Wilson Aero Center ball In Indian
apoHs the sporting goods firm OF
Smith. Hassler & Sturn. 219-221 Mass.
achusetts Ave. Is the authorized
agent for this baseball.
The Wilson Aero Center baseball
was extremely popular with amateur
leagues in indianapolis last year. and
since its official adopting by three pro
fesslonal leagues, It is expected by
Smith Hassler & Sturm that its pop
ularity on the diamonds where local
amateurs viii combat. will be consid-
erably increased during the coming
season.
That there has been no decrease in
interest in amateur baseball in Indian
apolis over the winter just ending is
evidenced by the fact that the early
orders for baseball uniforms received
by Smith, Hassler e Sturm have out
those for any previous base
ball year.
Smith. Hassler & sturm originated
in this city the idea of a complete
gofling outfit. including a bag. four
clubs--driver. mid iron. mashle and
putter-aud two good golf balls, for
$3.50. The firm had a large sale on
this combination from the very start.
and is still filing orders for this COM
plete outfit on a large scale. The golf
offered by Smith. Hassler
& Sturm includes such well known
makes as Wilson, Burke, MacGregor

escape OF moisture in the ground.
Sprinkle
Sprinkling, during spring and fall,
should be done in the morning that
the foliage may be dry before the
cold of night comes.
Summer watering should be done
in the evening that the moisture
may not be evaporated by the sun.
1t is only necessary to moisten
the soil. Don't soak it.
Also. remember that wet foliage
on bright days is subject to sun

Bear in mind that moisture
