Use OF Cottonseed OIL.

| In explaining the strength of cotton
seed oil prices the Oil, Paint and Drug
eporter declares that consumption ha,
| shown a greater increase than general
ly believed, and the quantity Of oil
in possession Of the mills is and hal
for some time been much smaller thar
supposed, and consequently the cruh
er have been disposed to await more
favorable conditions and have not of
fered their oil as freely at the current
market quotations. There is probably
no question of shortage, but the sup.
ply is smaller than generally estimat.
ed, and as most Of the mills have clos
ed for the season, little more oil will
be made this crop year. OF course,
many of the mills will resume crush.
ing for time later in the season, but
the farmers having received good pric.
es for their seed, have sold il more
closely than usual, and a smaller sur.
plus will be available for crushing af.
ter seeding is completed. The smaller
stocks in possession Of the erushers,
and the knowledge that there will be
comparatively little seed available for
the second crush, has made the mill
owners firm in their views, and LAT.
terly indifferent sellers at prevailing
prices, as they have faith that prices
will later 60 in their favor. More.
over, other elements of strength are
the increased requirements abroad, the
advances in competing greases, and the
stronger position Of most vegetable
oils in foreign markets. For soap.
making the requirements have also
increased. The supply Of oil in pos
session Of the principal consuming in.
terests is known TO be comparatively
light, and they will be compelled to
replenish their supplies sooner or later
as their requirements will not admit
Of an indefinite continuance Of the
policy Of holding of to compel the
crushers 10 accept lower offers. Con.
sumption in foreign countries has in
creased greatly.
