WILL THE SEED BRING MORE
MONEY THAN THE LINT OF
COTTON?

An invention has been perfected, so it
is stated. for delinting and hulling cotton
seed which does away with six operations
that are now necessary from the begin
ming of the use of the cotton seed until
it isAeonverted into refined OIL The lint
and hulls are preserved for paper stock
without waste, and the kernel is SO much
reduced in size and weight as to effect a
considerable saving in transportation
The claim is further made that by this
secret chemical process one hundred per
cent of the oil from the cotton seed can
be obtained whereas now it is possible
to get only forty per cent, and the work
is done in less than half the time requir-
ed by present methods. A dispatch from
Washington, explaining what will be ac-
complished by the invention, says:
THE huIls and lint removed from a
ton of seed by the new process are said
to yield 1000 pounds of paper stock as
compared with less than 400 pounds by
the method now in use; and this paper
stock is worth. in the condition left by
the new processes, from $40 to $40 ton,
as compared with between So and 81 per
ton for the amount of paper stock re-
covered in poor condition by the usual
method. This alone would constitute,
net gahn of from 50 to SIS a ton, or, on
the lis or YEARS product, it is
N5Htended. would save - the cotton
growers Of the South about s3S,0OO,OO0
..In the process of extracting the oil,
the oil cake IS freed from the chemical
and becomes adapted for use as food
product for cattle or as fertilizer.
Under the usual method it is possible
to extract only about DO per cent. of oil
from the seed, while the new process,
its hackers assert, makes possible the
extraction of practically 100 per cent.
and the cost of producing crude oil by
the new method is reduced so per cent.
The oil refined by the secret process is,
in addition, it is asserted by chemists
who have made careful analysis, equal
to any imported olive oil sold on the
american market, while the cost of re-
fining is no greater than the present cost
Of refining crude cotton seed oil.
THE new invention will roast the cot
ton seed as peanuts are roasted, and the
claim is made that they will be as pala-
table as peanuts"
When the once despised cotton seed
were first utilized, Edward Atkinson, said
the time would come when the cotton
seed would bring the South more money
than the lint If this new invention does
all that is claimed for it, Mr.. Atkinson

The Nippon Susen kaisha has 6.0n-ton

steamers call at Portland and Tacoma. II
is now proposed to establish a line To the
west coast OF South America, and soon
as the isthmian canal is opened there will
be a regular Japanese service from Japan

now Japanese vessels come into our gulf

The Japanese are reaching out after our

jute from India. especially jute for making
the japanese rugs which are sold so cheap

japanese flag is more common in the ports
of the world than tI,e American flag, and
in the Far East it is safe to say that there
are twenty japanese vessels to America s

The Russians and the Japanese are each
grasplng after Corea. The relations Of the
two nations are strained by the struggle,

japan and It's Colonies.
l don't know that one can rightly speak
of Japan as having colonies. 1t has, how
ever, two great islands at the opposite
ends of the empire which are undeveloped
and which will add much to its wealth
and its position in the Pacific. These are
YeZo and Formosa. Yezo is about as big
as Indiana and its population is about as
great as that Of st. Louis, 1t has an ex-
cellent climate. and it's soil raises the finest

To the other and by means of this railroad

furnishes Japan great deal of rice ana
fish. and the CoreanS buy all sorts OF ia
panese goods.
The Japanese have put up telegraph
lines connecting Fusan with all parts OF
the country, and from Fusan there is
cable to Japan. The big Tokyo banks
have branch offices in Seoul and at some
of the Corean ports. and there are Japa-
nese post offices at the principal cities.
Japanese money is the currency of the
country. and the Japanese have been
granted concessions for mines, and other
things.
The japanese in China.
The Japanese have been crowded out Of
Manchura by Russia, and the powers have
not permitted them to take possession OF
any part OF China. Nevertheless, they are
pushing their trade throughout the Chinese
empire and will have their share of China S
commerce. There are Japanese steamers
doing regular carrying trade on some OF
the Chinese rivers You can have your

I[iangsu by Japanese launches and can go
up the Yangtse Kiang or the Peiho on
steamers owned by Japanese.
The Japanese have concessions at many
of the open ports At Shanghai their con-
sulate is in one of the finest buildings: and
there is much Japanese money invested In
the port. They have a concession for a
cotton mill there, but have concluded that
it is cheaper to make cotton cloth at Osaka
and ship it to China. Indeed, this Is so
with all sorts OF goods. The people hope
to make Japan the workshop of the Orient.
In an interview which had with Marquis
Ito he said that foreign ca pital should put
up factories in Japan to supply the Chi
nese markets. He assured me that such
capital would be safe, and that Japanese
labor could be more easily handled tnan
Chinese labor.
