DEPARTMENT OF OL.-The Columbia
OH Company-E. P. Alexander, Presi-
dent. This company has been recently
organized. and is now erecting buildings
and machinery for pressing oil from cot
ton seed. It's production will be about
500 gallons of oil and six tons Of oil
cake per day, and it will be in full ,ope-
ration early in December. It irvites
every planter In the State to send his
cotton seed to have the oil expressed on
toll, and the cake returned to be % nsed a. a.
feed for his mules and horses, and those
who wish may also become stockholders
and participate in the large profits which
the enterprise promises. Working in
this way, on the mutual principle, owned
and controlled by the planters them
selves, this enterprise is one we'll worthy
the encouragement of all Interested in
the development of Southern resources,
and keeping our money at home. The
value OF cotton-seed oil cake as feed for
stock has only recently besn discovered,
and when it is once appreciated, the cul-
tlvation of corn for stock feeding will be
abandoned. The Report Of the Cor.
missioners Of Agriculture, Washington,
| nf In ha
hesh-forming portions, cotton seed meal
far exceeds the very best English or
American linseed meal, and we have by
repeated experiments proved that for the
production Of milk it is worth Just about
double corn-meal pound for pound, and
for making oil kinds Of animals int and
glossy, it exceeds all other kinds of food"
DEPARTMENT OF CoTToN AND Wool
SALUDA MILLs.-PRoPRIEroRs, CH11Ds,
JOHNSTON AND PALMER.-The property
consists of over two hundred acres land
on both sides OF the Saluda river, with
water power capable of running over
10000 spindles. The Factory village
contains fifty houses and q church build
ing: The main Factory building is three
and half stories high, forty-eight by
two hundred feet. Another is forty by
one hundred and twenty-five. There is
a machine shop sixty by thirty y-eight feet,
and there are cotton house, black
smith shop, waste house, etc. The
Factory runs 1000 spindles. The spin
ming and drawing frames are Of American
manufacture. The balance of the ma
chinery Was imported from England
Products No. 20 and % warps and
twist, which are sold exclusively in
Philadelphia. Some coarse yarns made
for the local trade. The number of
operatives over one hundred and thirty,
all white with the exception Of six. The
Factory is managed by Col. Palmer, one
of the owners.
PRopRIEToR.-A the Saluda Factory, j.
e. Gibbes manufactures wooden jeans
and domcstics, and employs about ten
hands. He buys wool for cash, or ex-
changes his cloth therefor.
THE ART1sTICAL DEPARTMENT.-The
Photographic Establishment of Messrs.
Wearn and Hix. This is one of the
most complete establishments in the
South. The proprietors are we'll known
rs skillful artists. The most improved
implements in their line have been Sc
cured, all the modern improvements
have been made available, and all kinds
and styles of pictures are executed. At
tached to this establishment is fine
gallery.
From this statement it will be seen
that whilst Columbia is doing something
in the importan. line of manufacture,
there is ample room for improvement.
Capitalists will also observe that there is
a fine opening in some departments in
particular. AS before stated, paper mill
would be good investment, and addi-
tional cotton factories are in especial de-
mand. The water power of the Columbia
canal awaits the touch of capital, and we
hope that some one will start it into life.
