Mr., Gerald Mccarthy, State Biolo-

This is. a new crop for this State. and

one busheI of ripe castor beans will
produce two gallchs of oil. The ordi-
nary yield Of seed is about 20 bushels
per acre. The oil is ready for market
without further treatment, other than
boWeIing. The present market prices
for castor oil No. are 8 to II cents
per pound. The chief market for the
oil is New York City. Jersey City and
ST Louis are the chief castor oil mill
centers, though there are small mills
in Tennessee, Mississippi and other
States.
Besides it's use in medicine, castor
oil is extensively employed in dying
cotton, yarns and calico prints Fol-
this use it has no substitute, and
nearly four fifths of the entire OUTPUT
is probably consumed by the cottor
mills. Castor oil is also, to q consid
