IT is stated that the machinery OF
cotton oil mills is we'll adapted to
pressing the juice from Irish potatoes,
preparatory to making denatured al
cohol and the probability is that when
the tax on such alcohol is removed
next January many oil mills will put in
the additional machinery and equip
ment necessary to the manufacture OF
this useful product. There appears to
be no reasonable limit to uses that can
be made of denatured alcohol for pow
er lighting and heating purposes. and
if general use is developed there will
be considerable stimulation of kim
dred industries. There will be a steady
market for Irish potatoes at prices
that will insure a profit in their pro-
duction and there is reason to believe
that power will come into much
more general use for agricultural and
domestic purposes. For the making OF
alcohol rotten potatoes are practical
ly as good as sound ones, and this Will
mean a market for a commodity that
has heretofore necessarily gone to
waste.

THE cotton seed crushers are con-
sidering the practicability of encour-
aging the more extended use of cotton
oil as a substitute for lard. They con-
slider this to be just the right time for
such a thing, especially in view of the
disclosures made in connection with
the recent investigation Of Chicago
packing houses.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-06-22

WHY don't the Southern people have
sense enough to recognize cotton SEED
oil as the principal basis of practically
all the so-called lard they are now
using and go in directly for cotton seed
oil rather than lard? We confess our
inability to give satisfactory answer
to this question. The chemist tells
us that there is no harm in cotton seed
oil and practical experience not only
tells us that il measures up to every
requirement of lard; but that it is just
as wholesome and ever so much clean
er. But still we have a prejudice
against the oil and won't use Ii until
the northern packer has mixed 1t with
more or less questionable lie hog fat. la
beled it under a different name and
sold 1t back to us at a higher price.
BY the way is 1t not possible that our
objection to cotton seed oil in food Is
really a matter of Yankee suggestion?
II there was any way to trace the
matter to the bottom this Is about
what we would find. And yet, 1t Is as
plain as the nose on ones face that If
the southern people would assume a
frank, open attitude toward the subject.
determine on the use Of cotton seed oil
themselves, brag on it and do all In
their power to remove the prejudices
of others, the result would be a still
more wholesome product than we are
now getting at much less cost. We
are allowing ourselves to be duped in
this matter, and we are paying tribute
on a commodity that is absolutely our
own.

THE trustees of the colored college
at Orangeburg are confronted with a
proposition that seems TO involve the
future usefulness of that institution.
The issue as presented by the Times
Democrat is like this: Two female
teachers discovered a letter which
compromised a number of male and
female students and they followed up
the matter sufficiently to assure them
selves that the situation indicated in
the letter actually existed. But it hap
pened that one of the guilty girl stu
dents was n favOrite of the teachers
and they erased her name from the
letter before turning ii over to the
proper authorities. On learning the
facts. President Miller determined on
the expulsion of all of the students
involved and the immediate dismissal
of the teachers who had thus tried to
shield one of the guilty parties. The
trustees We're not disposed TO back up
the position taken by Miller and. he
promptly offered his resignation. The
prospect of a vacancy To be filled made
factions and now everything hinges on
the final action of the trustees. If the
facts are as stated by the Orangeburg
paper, there seems to be no question

FROM the facts being stated in the
dispatches, there seems to be no doubt
that the Russian bureaucracy is respon-
sible for the slaughter of Jews that is
now going on in Russia. 1t appears
that the absolutists, having begun to
despair of getting rid of the new con-
stitution in any other way, have gone
about deliberately melting peasants
throughout the empire to murder the
Jews. Rewards are offered for Jewish
heads and in many instances tele-
grams, purporting to have come from
the czar, and ordering the massacre
of Jews are being exhibited. The race
feeling, especially against Jews. is
very strong throughout Russia, and
there is nothing, probably, that ap-
peals so strongly to the average Rus
sian peasant as an opportunity to kill
a Jew without incurring danger to
himself. The idea of the consprators
is that the Duma will have to do
all it can to put a stop to these muir
ders, and as the result of its efforts in
this direction it will lose the sympathy
of the ignorant peasants, who really
have no conception of the real purpose
of free government Russia is in a
most horrible way, but the worst is
yet to come.

with a mammoth collar and revers Of
black velvet The hat for this costume
was black straw with black velvet
twist about the crown and bunch Of
shaded blue ostrich tips at the side.
A more elaborate cloth dress was
Of smoke colored velvet-London
smoke, which Is one Of the new colors.
1t was made with a long skirt and dou-
le-breasted bolero. The waist was of
cluny lace dyed to match the cloth and
had a cravat and stock of old rose vel
vet. The bolero was finished with a
collar and cuffs Of smoke colored vel
vet and an edge Of the same velvet.
With this was worn boa Of shaded
feathers, which Is one Of the spring
novelties. It was full and round. reach
ing to the knees and shaded from PAL
est peach colcr to a gradually deepened
shade until the tips were almost black.
A black and white boa, however. Is In
quite as good taste and far more USE
full for all-round wear.
Art has entered into dress hand-in-
hand with caprice and extravaganza.
Happily so, for the result Is nearly al
ways charming. Instead of building
gown so that it will be deliberately
trimmed with lace the clever modiste
creates a garment into which the lace
is deftly introduced as an integral part
Of the gown. For a slender figure she
will form a lingerie gown that Will
represent rose, and for a well-devel-
oped but moderately slender form she
will design lily. This she accom-
plishes simply by the arrangement Of
lace in the mule or batiste.

to finish the Dutch neck. The skirt
was gathered to meet the gathers at
the belt line Of waist. and the bottom
OF the skirt was finished in a deep
hem. Pure white ribbons were laid
out ready to wear with it, with a twist
OF pearl beads to be tied close about
the throat with butterfly bow Of the
ribbon and another ribbon bow for the
hair, held in place by a gilt butterfly.
The whole effect was as dainty and
airy and graceful as the owner and
wearer.
Decorations for the hair are matters
OF Importance and often make or mark
the whole costume. Had my young
friend chosen, instead of the gilt but
terfly, one of the elaborate combs so
would have suffered from the heavy
incongruity. These combs, however,
are most attractive and becoming. If
possible they should be selected only
Of the best material. But let only the
black-haired, the dark skinned choose
the beautiful silver combs, for only the
brunette can wear them effectively.
Every shade Of hair and complexion is
safe with tortoise-shell. It's tints and
lights and colorings blend becomingly
with every shade of hair, tho the dark
brown hair takes the most kindly to it.
