One OF the most inte resting
chapters in the industrial history
of the South is written in the
record which the once deSpised
cott0nseed has made for itself
within the last thirty years. Prior
to 1860 the seed wa. used mainly
for purposes Of fertilization. Only
a small percentage was needed to
plant the next years crop, and
consequently the excess was enor-
nous. Nothing was done with
it but to turn ir back into the soil
from year to year. But since the
war the industry has grown to
immense proportions.
It is estimated that out of an
annual crop of 1000, 900 tons Of
seed, one-third is used for seed
ing consumption and export.
About 10, 100000 tons are used in
the oil mills.
OThe oil mill industry is unique
one, and use has been found for
every particle of the raw material.
The lint is first taken from the
seed by reginning process, and
is worth from l-2 to 3 cents a
pound. 1t is a good substitute
for low grade cotton. The seed
is huIled and from the 'meat the
oil is pressed. The hulls are used
as food for stock, being considered
cheap and effective substitute for
hay. A large quantity of hulIs is
also used under the engines OF OIL
mills for fuel, and is considered
worth 90 cents a ton when coal
costs IS 80 a ton. The ash hes from
these hulls are carefully preserved
and find a ready sale on account of
their rich supply of potash, which
is esteemed very highly as a tertll-
izer of tobacco lands, One ton OF
oottonseed will produce an average
of Is gallons of crude cottonseed
oil and 500 pounds of cottonseed
oil cake. 1t is estimated that 10
100000 gallons of this oil are
worked up into common lard,
while the remainder is either eX-
ported or used in the manufacture
of soap. adulteratlon of lard, olive
and sperm oils, etc, washing pow
der, cosmetics, to some extent for
Illuminating purposes, as a Iubrl-
cant (when rcfned) in the manu-
facture of bolts and nuts, anu gen
orally as a substitute for olive oil.
As a soap for woolen mills it has
been extensively adopted in Amer,
lea, England and Scotland.
1t is said that 80 per cent of the
salad oil sold in this country is
cottonseed oil, and large percen-
tage obtains in the salad OILS of
other countries. Unless one is an
expert he cannot tell properly pre-
pared cottonseed oil from the pure
olive oil. The cottonseed meal, or
meal. which is the cake after it is
ground, is used for feeding cattle
and tor fertilizing. For either it
stands pre-eminent. 1t is thought
that in the near future the cotton
seed oil mills of the South will be-
come centers of profitable stock
raising business, and one of great
magnitude. 1t Is already attract
ing much interest in this connec-
tiop. Cottonseed meal is being
used for packing axle boxes of
railway cars, and is said to be
more economical than cottonseed
waste soaked in oil.
In 1895 the export business in
cottonseed oil reached $40, l3S, 900.
The outlook for the industry is
very encouraging. Since January |
1. 1899, it is estimated that sixty |
new companies lave been organic

corps who has just returned from Ma
Mia, is il this city visiting friends, en-
route to his home at Darlington, N. D.
Lieutenant Kelley said:
The newspaper stories have been
greatly exaggerated. There is no or
ganized rebellion in the islands at this
time. There are a few bands Of insur-
gents continuing a bushwhacking
warfare, but there is not a force Of
Philippines in the islands which will

HISTORY OF THE OUTBREAK.
DR.. Wasdin's official report of his ex-
animation of existing conditions at the
soldiers home reached DIR. Wyman to-
day. 1t is dated yesterday and notes
the fact that the doctor has seen all
the cases of suspected disease at the
home. He sums up the history of the
c%ontagion as follows:
Early in July IN old soldier enter
ed the home for a short rest and soon
afterward appeared at the ~dispensary,
where he informed the physician in
charge that he was but recently from
Santiago, via a transport to a north
ern port: thence he started for Manila
via San Francisco, beat his way 10 the
home on a freight train and entered
with his baggage. He complained OF
dumb chills and fever and was pre-
scribed for. He mingled freely with
the inmates Of the home and a short
time ago disappeared. From this. as a
possible cause the outbreak is as fol-
lows:
Preceding Friday. the 21st instant,
there had been noticed nothing of a
suspicious nature. The weekly death
rate was as usual. But on the 21st and

alireA TO Make . Qse~r Puhlf-
casisa In His Native Town.

Strict laws regarding marriage are
enforced by the German government.
l, must be demonstrated TO constituted
authorities that everything is lawful
and proper before contracting parties
are allowed to join hands. Julius Gost-
iieb. a naturalized American citizen re-
siding in Pleasanton, Kan. passed
through Chicago a few days ago en-
route to his western home, having Just
returned from Germany, where he had
wedued the sweetheart of his youth.
Mr.. Gottlieb had almost forgotten the
rigid laws of his native land, and told
friends in this city that he was much
surprised al the requirements. Before
the officials would allow the ceremony
TO take place they compelled Got'iieb
to have published at his home in Kan
sas notice ,haa the marriage was
sbou, to take place and they then re-
auired an affidavit of this publication
from the editor for fling in the pub
lie records. The notice appeared as fol-
lows In the columns of Pieasauton
