Plans for Making Soy Bean Oil.

Plans for Making Soy Bean Oil.
Chief c. B. Williams of the divi-
sion of agronomy, state department
Of agriculture, reports splendid prog
ress in the campaign he is pushing
to induce the cotton oil mills to add
the work of extracting the oil from
the soy bean, the cultivation Of which
is steadily growing in this state. Mr..
Williams will within the next few days
visit the cotton oil mill of Elizabeth
City to take a hand in preliminary
experiments with soy bean oil. He
will. be accompanied by an expert
from the United States department of
agriculture.
North Carolina is probably more
largely engaged in the cultivation of
the soy bean than any other state in
the Union and Mr.. Williams is con-
fident that the Oil mills will begin ex-
tracing this oil, hereby prolonging
the operating season for the cotton
Oil mills. The division of agronomy
has already received statements from
number of the mills to the effect
that they will begin to use anywhere
from 100 to 1000 tons of soy beans
within the next year.

Board curtaIis

Agricultural Board CurtaIIs
Tie State Board of Agriculture de.
termined ma general policy of. re.
trenchment for the next six-months
period in view of the falling Off in
revenue from decreased sale Of fer
tilizer tags, the budget for the next
six months adopted being $107,77O
compared with $1O8,455 for the six
months period beginning December,
1914.
The board refused to raise any
salaries at this time and all the work
was cut as much as it would possibly
bear. 1t was ordered that the size OF
the department bulletin be cut to not
exceeding 16 pages. There was cut
in the appropriation for farmers in
stitutes, the hope Of the members of
the board being that the state will
come into a share of the National
Lever fund that will bring the work
among the farmers up to at least the
standard and volume that has prevail
ed the past year. They also count on
the additional cooperative work,
especially with canning clubs that the
National Department of Agriculture
is giving the state to make up for the
cut in the institute work.
During the session an order was
made directing the Commissioner of
Agriculture to increase the fire insur-
ance carried on the department build
ings and contents from $4,000 to $780,
900. This is precaution deemed
to be wise on account of the $4,000
loss the state sustained in the burn
ing of state property stored in the
Uzzell printing house November 6.
The board made final disposition Of
the question of premium money in
volved in exhibits at the last State
Fair. It was decided to allow the
5000 premium for tobacco exhibits;
but not to allow nearly $500 of
premiums offered for other exhibits,
the reason being that the exhibitors
and fair management failed to COM
ply with the new regulations as adopt
ed at the June meeting of the board.
The board deferred until the June
1916, meeting acting on resolution
by Mr. Shuford of Hickory STIMULATING
that after 1916 the budgets for de-
partmental work shall be annual in
stead of semi-annual as at present.
The board adopted the resolution
ordered by Clarence Poe recommend
ing that the legislature repeal grad
ually the North Carolina crop lien
law.

Raleigh.
President Hugh e. Chatham of the
Elkin & Allegheny Railway, R. A.
Doughton of Sparta, director, and G.
B. Penny, general manager, were in
conference with Governor Craig in
reference to the construction of this
line to connect Elk1n and Sparta.
The company has been using a large
force of state convicts for quite awhile
and the prison authorities have just
transferred 70 of this working force
to Badin for the American aluminium
Company in reopening the Whitney
development. This leaves the rail-
road company So convicts as q work
ing force. These are being used in
connection with the operation of the
big steam shOvels anu other ma
chinery for excavation and grading
purposes.
President Chatham made, a detailed
the road to Governor Craig, the
showing being gratified in all res
poets. There are 16 miles Of the
road in operation and six miles ad-
ditional ready for the irons. The
road is within five miles of the crest
of the mountain which marks the
termination of the really heavy work
of construction. Then there will re-
main 10 miles of line to be graded
mostly over plateaus. The governor
was assured that the company pro-
poses to complete the road in the
shortest possible time.
In speaking of the Elkin & Allie
ghany, Mr.. Doughton says that the
completion of the road will really
mean the reclamation in a large de-
gree of that splendid mountain re-
gion from Virginia so far as business
relations are concerned and he ex-
poets unprecedented development. He
hopes that the road will be in opera
ton to Sparta within IL months.
