ts there used for adulterating the ma
tive article, and then it is exported
again rs genuine olive oil. This has
already become serious matter, AS OF
the six million gallons of cotton seed
oil which are exported from the United
States during the last year, the greater
portion went to Italy. The Italian
4oyermant, therefore, In order to
check t.lts adultcratIon, has imposed
heavy duty upon the import ltion Of
cotton seed oil from the United States.
Tho exploration, which in 1877 and
1878 was about one halt million gal
Ions per year, reached in 1870 nearly
six millions, and this will be surpassed
IN 1850. Our home consumption Of the
article Is over two million gallons per
year. Mississippi and Louisiana have
each cotton oil mills; Tennessee, 8;
Texas, g.; Arkansas, 4; and Missouri,
Alabama, and Georgia, 2 each; to-
gcther, ~. At present 410, 900 tons Of

gallons Of oil and 750 pounds Of oil
cake to the ton Of seed. This oil cake
has admirable fattening qualities, and
is largely used for cattle.
