census years are due in a large meas ure to the fluctuations in the market values of products with which they come into competition. For instance, the price of oil Is affected by the prices of hogs lard, soap stock, olive. oil, etc; the price of meal and cake and of hulls by those of other feedstuffs and of fertilizer ma terials; and the price of linters by that of staple cotton. Tho value of linters is further largely affected by the pre- vailing custom of very close reginnng, which results in shorter and trasher grade of linters

The Mixing of Fertilizers

An interesting development in the in- dustry is the mixing of commercial fer tilizers by the oil mills, large quantities of the meal product of the mills being used for that purpose. As cotton growers and farmers generally throughout the cotton belt are coming to realize more and more the value of fertilizers in in- creasing the yield of their crops and es- pecially the cotton crop, the use of this product is increasing. Among the most important ingredients in fertilizers are ammoniates, of which cotton seed meal is one of the best; and 1t is largely on this account that the oil mills have taken up the manufacture of fertilizers. Of the S10 establishments which crushed seed in 1909, 142 reported the manufacture of fertilizers. These establishments were To- eated in nine states and distributed as follows: In Alabama, 19; Arkansas, 5; Florida 2 Georgia. 55; Louisiana, 5; Mis- sissippi 12 North Carolina. 22; South Carolina, 15, and Texas. g. Their com bined output of fertilizers was 214,0OO tons, valued at $4275OOO

Exports of Cotton Seed Products

Formerly a very large percentage of the cottonseed products manufactured in the United States was exported. but an increasing domestic demand has caused a decline year by year in the proportion exported. In 1899 50 per cent or the oil produced was exported. while in 1909 the ratio was less than 20 per cent.
 The country purchasing the largest quantities of American cotton seed oil is The Netherlands, followed in order of importance by the United Kingdom, Mexico Canada. Italy Germany and Nor way. Of the total amount of cotton seed exported in 1910 Germany took 6ll3 tons, or 63 per cent, and The Netherlands 1593 tons or F per cent. The largest amount of meal and cake was exported to Denmark and the next largest to Ger many. Large quantities were alse ex- ported to the United Kingdom and to The Netherlands. e4- ,sse.-a
 Formerly there was much prejudice against the use of cotton seed oil products for edible purposes, and this still re- mains true in several countries. The general public, however. both fin America and abroad, Is gradually realizing that when this product is carefully manufact- ured from seed in proper condition 1t Is equal to any other vegetable oil, and preferable to many of the animal fats now consumed.
