and also to allow manufacturers to sell under proper regulations any quality of meal made by the ordinary method of manufacture from such hnv grades or
 Foliowing this resolution. a reso- lution was introduced instructing the Executive Committee of the Associa- could be made, J. M. Kyser. of Hunts vile, Ala, as advertising agent Of the cotton seed products throughout the cotton seed products and to encourage their use by the people of Alabama. .
 Similar work, 1t was argued, was be- ing done by the Interstate Assocla- ton in the United States as well as abroad, the work being in charge of the Publicity Committee of that Asso- ciation. It was represented that MT. Kyser would be expected to. do work similar to the kind that is being done in Europe by J. L. Benton, of Georgia, who was appointed by the government to exploit cotton seed products In for eiga markets.
 inc step was urged in view of the fact as stated, that the people of Ala bama do not appreciate the value of | cotton seed oil as a cooking fat and | of cotton seed meal and hulls as stock food. and of cotton seed meal as fer | tilizer.
 called to farmers bulletin. No. 2S6, is-
 sued May II. 1907. by the United States
 Department of Agriculture on the | "Comparative value of whole cotton
 seed and cotton seed meal in fertlliz- ing cotton" the emphasis being lald on the conclusion reached in this bull 1 letin which Is expressed therein as fol~

 injures or reduces the fertilizer value | of the seed, very many cotton grow
 CTS still continue to use large quantl- | ties of whole cotton seed as fertilizer. l This is a very wasteful practice an
 equivalent value of cotton seed meal | from which oil has been expressed
 would have much greater fertilizer | value"
 Based on the information contained | in the above a motion was unanimously | carried to the effect that a committee | be appointed to confer with the Ala | bama Department of Agriculture look l ing towards the publication of a bull l letin along the same lines as that men, | tioned above. As a result of this the
 following committee was appointed: J. c. Street of opelika. E. Ashcraft of | Florence. and c. E. McCord of Pratt | vile.
 Upon motion to that effect. the Leg

 other articles of perishable nature. With the exception of J. W. Black.
 who resigned as Secretary and Treas
