Cotton Seed oil, Cake ana Meal.

A new value has been given to part
of the product of the cotton plant which
before was only used as fertilizer, but
which within the last five years has be-
come an article of export as well as of
domestic manufacture. The cotton seed,
the removal of which from the cotton
was long an expensive and puzzling
problem, has been discovered to be as
valuable as almost any other part of that
wonderful plant, and the demand for 1t
abroad is now greater and more constant
than the supply, which is limited, owing
partly to the Indifference and partly to
the prejudices of the, cotton planters.
Several manufactures of cotton-seed oil,
cake, and meal, have been established at
New Orleans-sn elaborate report on
the nutritive and agricultural value of
which products has been made by Prof.
Joseph Jones, of the Medical University
of Louisiana, after careful chemical ex-
animation. The learned doctor shows
the great use and value of these products
from the hitherto almost worthless cot
ton seed, and states the fact that the IN
tslllgent European farmers regard the
cake az so valuable for cattle feed that
Ii readily commands from them from s6
TO 60 per ton, equivalent at present to,
about $40 in our currency. The works
Of the Louisiana Oil Company alone
consume $4,000 tons Of cotton seed an

nually, yielding 3,605, 500 gallons foil
of superior quality, and $500 tons OF
decorticated cotton-seed cakes, used as
cattle feed. The works furnish steady
employment to more than one hundred
men. There are several other similar
establishments in Louisiana, and one in
the city of Mobile, which receive more
orders than they can fill.
The value of the cotton seed as an ef-
fcient fertilizer has long been known to
the Southern planters, but these new
uses to which the seed has been put
greatly enhance its value. On submit
ting 20 strong pressure the oily seeds OF
the cotton plant valuable and agreea-
ble-smelling and pleasant tasting oil is
obtained. which in a purified state is
now employed for the usual purposes In
commerce, the arts, and pharmacy for
which other kinds of oils and fats are
employed. Large expectations OF this
oil and cake, as well as of the cotton
seed, are now annually made to France,
England, and other European countries,
whence comes a constantly increasing
demand. About SO, 900 tons of seed are
annually worked up in the five Louisiana
mills, producing more than 10,0O0,0OO
gallons of Oil, and about 10000 tons OF
oil cake and meal. The exports of this
oil the last year have been "a, 544 bar
rels, of which 6,459 barrels went to Eu.
rope and 2S,085 to Northern ports. OF
the oil-eake the exports have been 202,-
873 sacks, of which 10, 1856 went to Nor
thern States and 1873, SIT to Europe.
This is but one of many illustrations
which go to prove that the Southerner is
awaking under the pinch of adversely,
and learning the lesson of utilizing and
developing the lavish gifts of nature,
which he has hitherto put to so little
use. The South has long been famous
for her corn-cake her cotton-cake is
more recent production, and bids fair to
be equally popular and profitable. From
