ON the Atlanta Constitution

From the Atlanta Constitution
One of those leisured and ingenious
persons whom Shakespeare calls a
"snapper-up of unconsidered trifes,
has been at great pains to discover in
what year of their fathers lives ia
nous men were born. He reports among
the first fruits OF his research that Con :
fucius' father was seventy-one, Aris-
totle's tifty-eight. Benjamin Franklin's
fifty-one, Washington's thirty-eight.
Henry Ward Beecher's thirty-eight,
John C. Calhoun's f1fty-fve. Aaron
Burr's forty. Bismarck's forty-four. Ed
win Booths thirty y-seven, Samuel
Bowie's forty-seven, George Bancroft S
forty-f1ve. Balzac's fifty-five. Thomas
Carlyle's thirty eight. Salmon +.
Chase's forty-f1ve. Culver's f1fty-one.
w. NJ. Evarts' thirty-seven, Thomas A.
Edison's forty-three. Jefferson Davis
ffty-two. Darwin's forty three. Dis
raeli's thirty-nine, Goethe's thirty-nine.
Oliver Goldsmith's thirty-eight, Wash
ington 1rving's fifty-two. Thomas JEFF
ferson's thirty-five, DR.. Johnson's fifty
three. Lord Kelvin's thirty-eight.
Krupp's forty-two. Robert L. Lees
fifty-one, Lincolns thirty-one, James
Russell Lowelrs thirty-seven. Lord Ma
caulay's thirty-two, Gouverneur Morris
fifty-four, NeWtons thirty-six, Admiral
Nelson's thirty-six, Francis Parkman's
thirty eight. Wendell Phillips forty
one. William Pitts fifty-one, Pope's
forty-seven, Sir Walter Raleigh's fifty
six, Solomon's ffty-two.
One may draw from this interesting
record whatever conclusion he will. He
may take it seriously, and evolve new
theory of eugenics: or lightly. and
chuckle at the curious industry of the
compiler. Due inquiry doubtless would
show that the fathers of famous men
were particularly fond of cream tarts
or, il the student had an aversion to
that pastry, he could find an equally
impressive mass of evidence to prove
that the fathers of famous men abb
horred cream tarts.

q small mill to produce cottonseed OIL.

for the purpose Of packing FISH BY 1850

value
During this year a Chicago packer,
touring the south upon a pleasure trip,
sampled the cotton oil and conceived
the possibility OF com bining IL with
the beef fat, which was n by-product
of his packing house. The result was a
substitute for pork lard, which sprang
into popular favor at once, partly be-
cause of the heavy advertising which
heralded IT. Its popularity increased.
as It became better known because OF
its real food value. The processes by
which the combination was made have
been improved so that the product has
been greatly refined. In 1870 the
French government ordered chemist
to provide a cheap substitute for but
ter to be used in the army. He was
unable to secure any product which go
closely resembled the dairy product as
do some Of the oleomargarines manu-
factured in this country from cotton
seed oil.
As n salad oil the cottonseed prod
uct leaves little to be desired either In
flavor or wholesomeness. and at least
2O.O00.0o0 gallons. averaging about
30 cents a gallon in value. are con-

exported into Italy. and then imported
to he sold as olive oil. But the cam
paign OF education conducted during
the last nve years has been suf,iciently
strong to induce thousands of house
keepers to buy tho cottonseed openly.
In addition to its uses as food. cotton
seed oil is extensively used a lu
bricating oil. for mixing paints. in putty
for automobile tires and an ingre-
dent in high-grade soaps and washing
powders.

vanced to secure the increased use OF
cottonseed meal for human food. Tho
interstate Cotton Seed Crushers' Asso-
ciation has now standardized three
grades as choice, prime and Off grade.
The first Is intended for human con-
sumption, and scientific tests are now
being conducted to ascertain the extent
to which 1t can be utilized to lower
the cost of living. 1t is claimed thar
from two to three ounces OF cottonseed
