The weather conditions were of the Association's activities in ideal in other sections of the coun try, with Spanish and Runner pea nuts being produced in surplus quantities, according to Sugg; and unusual in North Carolina and Vir ginia to the extent that the top four grades were produced in ab normally low percentages. The top four grades referred to aro what are commonly seen , by th? consumer in the salted bag and the roasted in the shell bags. These cannot be substituted by otlier types of peanuts, due to their su perior size, quality and flavor. Sugg indicated that the results connection with the increase should be known much earlier than last year and that any increase forth coming should be announced con siderably prior to planting time.
