MARKETING PEANUTS 93 
DISTRIBUTION OF DOMESTIC CRUDE PEANUT OIL 
Table 14 shows the original destinations by States, of the ship- 
ments of crude peanut oil from October 25, 1920 to October 26, 
1924. This table is based upon weekly shipment records received 
from over 50 freight agents and steamship officials, covering all points 
in the South where crushing plants are located, edited and tabulated 
by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. The last week in Octo- 
ber was arbitrarily taken as the break between the old and new 
seasons. The figures are all reduced from pounds to tank-car equiv- 
alents on the basis of 60,000 pounds of peanut oil equalling one tank 
car. It should be remembered that in addition to the movement of 
domestic peanut oil, a very large volume was imported, for which 
destinations are not available. Therefore, the figures given here 
can not be considered as representing the total consumption of 
crude peanut oil by the States listed.

made from the following points, in descending order of importance 
within each State.
