COTTON SEED OIL IN LARD.
Prof. Wiley Denies That the Southern
Product is Unhealthy.


WASHINGTON, March 1S-The Senate
Committee on Agriculture yesterday re-
sumed its hearing upon the lard question.
Prof. Wiley, chemist of the Department
of Agriculture, appeared and gave the COM
mittee the result Of his microscopic exami-
nations of various samples of lard submitted
to him. Taking up samples of lard manu-
tactured by Armour & Co., Re stated that
lard branded pure refined family lard"
contained cotton seed oil stearine. That
branded kettle refined lard" was not adul-
terated. Choice refined family lard" con-
tained cotton seed oil and stearine. A
sample of "choice family lard purchased
III st. Louis, contained no cotton seed oil,
but some crystals Of stearine were appar-
ent. A sample of the same brand, purchased
II New Orleans, gave distinct traces of cot
ton seed oil. A brand of superior COM
pound lard" contained cotton seed oil.
All the samples of lard manufactured by
Fairbanks q Co., contained cotton
seed oil and beef stearine, except that
branded ''prime leaf lard. which contained
no stearine
In reply to a question by Mr.. Blair the
witness said he had no reason to believe
that any of the ingredients contained in the
samples were injurious to health. Cotton
seed oil was nearly Identical to olive oil and
was equally as wholesome. He had never
heard Of cotton seed oil being used to pro-
duce abortion.

of the injury cannot be determined till the
weather becomes settled and the growing
season opens. In Wisconsin and Northern
Michigan the fields are still pro-

having suffered very little injury from the
