There arc two outlets for tUe eoHsiimp

f<rm of shcllod lints which arc used
for rousting. Halting, making ihmuuu
butter, confoet injuries, sulads, meat
substitute*, etc., and the other is in
the form of edible oil and peanut uitvil
for stock feed. Under normal condi
tion tho demand for oil and stock food
is sufficient to take care of any
amount of |ieanuts that can be pro
duced in this country, and will act as
a st; .bilixcr in preventing the price of
peanuta from going below the <x?st of
production. At the present time, how
?ever, the price of edible oils has drop
ped away Inflow the pre-war level and
consequently the price of peanuts is
far lower than it has been for many
yea rs. This country consumes an
enormous amount of vegetable oil. in
the form of cooking oil, silad oil. lard
compound, niargarin, etc., and tin* sup
ply comes mainly from the cotton seed
of the South, Therefore the siz.e of
the cotton crop Is the main factor in
determining tin* price of vegetables

Now we are assured that there will
Now we are assured that there will
he enough cotton carried over to sup
ply the world for another year, so if
we should produce more than half a
crop tho coming season, we could not
expect it to bring anywhere near the
cost of making it. Most of our
fanners are wise enough to sec this
and partly from expediency and pirtl.v
from necessity, there is going to be the
greatest reduction ever known. Thif
reduction may barely maintain the
price of cotton at the present level, but
it will prohablv double the price oil. oil.
because there will be no very great
surplus carried over. This means that
peanuts widl be worth f?0 j>or cent to
100 per cent more than they are this
season.
The farmers who planted |x*unuts
the past season may abuse them all
they please, but they must admit that
they are better off than if they bad
planted all cotton or corn or tobacco
or what not. and the same condition
faces them today when they a i'e con

cost less than half what they cost

Many farmers now have the neces

gers and jriekers. to s?iy nothing of the
experience.
Another tiling for the farmer to re
member is the law of averages. The
price of pe.iuuts thisf season is just as

has been raising peanuts as last sea
