hundred thousand dollars worth of
seed was pressed and a million two
hundred Thousand dollars worth of
oil made. The business is now car
rled on to a vastly greater extent
than it was in 1880, since within the
past two years many new mills, with
extensive capacity and improved
machinery have sprung up in vari-
GUS parts of the Southern States.
The growth of this new industry in
the next five years bids fair to be
enormous. TheaSouth has at last
found source of great wealth in
what, until recently, was consider
ed of no value. Before the war
millions of dollars of cotton seed
were yearly thrown away. The util
ity of this seed as a fertilizer
was then discovered, and it was
for a time used chiefly for this pur-
pose. 1t was next found to contain
a valuable oil which is now pressed
out, refined and used chiefly for
cooking purposes as substitute for
lard, while the remaining meal Or
cake has proved to be rich food for
animals. Even the hulls of the seed
make an excellent fuel. Seed that
was once thrown away is now sold
for twelve and Fl teen dollars a ton,
and the price is likely to go higher.
Much of this product is still wasted
in some parts of the South, owing
chiefly to the want of convenient
mills. 1t has been estimated that at
no distant day the annual crop of
cotton seed will be converted into
products to the value of fifty to
seventy-fve million dollars

a New Industry.
New York Herald.

One of the most significant re-
suits appearing in the recent census
bulletin, giving the statistics of
manufactures in the United States
by industries, is the returns of cot,
ton-seed oil and cake These re-
turns show that in 1880 there were
forty>fve establishments of this
kind in the country, presumably in
the South, and that the value of
products for that year was nearly
eight million dollars. The cotton
seed used was valued at about five
and half million dollars. In 1870
there were but twenty-six of these
mills; only a million and three

MANUFACTURES

"Did you hear cotton manufactur
ing discussed very much :"
"Yes; I talked with great many
capital SITS who are interested in cot.
ton spinning. They were emphatic
in the statement that they expected
to see the time when the South
would manufacture the bulk of the
cotton grown in the South. They
say that that is the moral tendency
of things, and that they cannot hope
to put off the day very long when
the South will be able to drive Eng
lish cotton goods out of the worlds
market. They had hoped that the
disorganized ignorance that prevails
in India and Egypt, and the lack of
enterprise which make it impossible
for those countries to manufacture
their cotton crops, would prevail in
the South. They find that they were
mistaken, and that the Southern peo-
pie are rapidly improving their
natural advantages. The English
men do not seem disposed to hurry
this movement forward, for they
have enormous sums invested in
cotton machinery, and plants estab-
llsAed that cannot be moved. But
they do not hesitate to say that with
or without any help the day will
come speedily when the South will
manufacture the bulk of her staple
crop"

THE DRUMMERS.
Annual Meeting of the Western Com.
mercial Travellers Association.

ST. Louis, December 26.-The
Western Commercial Travellers As
ISOLATION began it's fifth annual CON-
vention in the Lindell Hotel to>day,
President Isaac r. Trask, of ST.
Louis, presiding, and over 100 mem
be- S present from all parts of the
West. George Balm, OK president of
the st. Louis Merchants Exchange,
made an address to the convention,
and President Trask followed with
the annual address, in which he re
viewed the years work of the asso-.
citation, showing that it has made,
great progress, and was in splen>
did financial and working condition.
The report of the secretary and
treasurer f flowed, an interesting
feature in which was the statement
that Ell ght death benefits, averaging
81, 500 each, had Teen paid the fami-
lies of deceased members, and the
fund had increased largely during
the year. The general fund had also
grown, and the financial condition of
the association, whose membership
had increased by some 800 members
during the year, was shown to be
very satisfactory.
Liquor dealers are alarmed at the
enormous stock of whisky in bond,
over 84,000,000 gallons, and will
bring great pressure to bear on
Congress for an extension of the
bonded period from three years in
definitely. But the longer it is ex>
tended the greater apparently will
be the over>production aud the ac-
emulation of stock. It is said, by
the way, that the American tax of 80
cents per gallon is lower than that
collected by any other government
where it is taxed, and the distilllng
interest is not at all strenuous for a
reduction.

There appears to be a general de-
sire among the Republicans of Penn
sylvania for harmony in the party.
The residuum of bitterness from the
late campaign is much smaller than
expected and the path to union is
consequently much easier. Express
sions of opinion from all parts of the
State, as given in the Times, of
Philadelphia, agree as to the desira-
bility and practicability of reunion
of the factions. One point is evil
dent, that paper says, in all the
views published, and that is this:
"There must be no more machine
management; party bosses must not
assume to dictate party nominations
and party action; the rank and file,
which is the whole party, should be
given the largest freedom of prefer
ence in the management of prima>
ries and conventions and the naming
of candidates. So much is very
generally agreed upon and the Stall
warts almost Lead the independents
in taking such position" A harmo,
NOUS Republican party in Pennsyl-
vania is greatly to be desired.

Peaches are becoming plenty, and
will aoon be within the reach of the

Delaware district from which the
fruit is brought by rail, will produce
this year, over 100000 baskets.
Cotton may be king in the South
as a whole, but the peach is the SOW

north this year, in special fast trains,
having the right of way over all pie
