10-MILLION-POUND
PILE OF PEANUTS BURN
Graceville, Fla., Nov. 8—Dam
age of “something over a million
dollars” was estimated today as a
10,000,000-pound pile of peanuts
still burned at the Greenwood
Products Company plant at
Graceville.
G. W. Morrow, plant manager,
made the estimate of loss from the
fire which started in an undeterm
ined manner Saturday night. The
blaze was under control, he said,
but the peanuts still burned.
The company's shelling plant
and big warehouse were destroyed
“All we have now is a smoking
pile of peanuts” and debris, Mor
row said.
Some of the peanuts can be sal
vaged, he said, for manufacture of
low-grade oil and fertilizer but the
amount of salvage “won't be as
the 50 percent we first hoped.”
