A mnss F THE USE OP COTTON SEED OIL AS FOOD. How M Came Into General Utettd Why it Gained in PopoUrtty?~H b Safe and Whotoomc. From the earliest Bible times to the present day nations of the countries surrounding the Mediterranean have made the oil of the olive on* of their principal articles of diet. It is used In all cooking operations and replaces the butter and lard of the nations in northern Europe. There Is no question but what a pure vegetable oil Is a moat useful and healthy article of diet. We never read of dyspepsia and troubles of a similar nature among the people of the Levant, doubtless because the fat taken as a necessary part of a well regulated diet Is always taken as a pure vegetable oil. In our own country up to within the last few years oil has been used but little as an article of diet, except by Europeans who have made their homes in our midat. We have clung to the traditions of our Saxon ancestors and used the hard fats prepared from hog* and cattle. The people of this country are beginning to realise their mistake. Throughout our southern States we have trees, small it is true, but great in numbers, which produce a fruit far more wonderful than the olive, we refer to our cotton plant. Its fiber clothes the world, it* *ee<l yields an oil which is unrivaled in sweetness and purity by the finest product of the pressed olive. Cotton seed oil was refined in small quantities prior to the Civil war. It found its way to Europe and came back in fancy bottle* mixed with olive oil. In the early #u's the production of the oil Increased rapidly. CJreat quantities finding their way to Chicago in inysterlously marked packuges, the contents if which properly blended with other material, traveled all over the world in I he form of lard. AI mi tit the year IKK? It was discovered that the amount of lard shipped from 'hicago greatly exceeded the weight of all the hogs received and an Investigation was instituted by Congress which brought forth the information that th** product of the cotton seed was ntir?*ly unobjectionable as an article of diet and liable to lw preferred by many to that of the hog. For various reasons our people have always been orHudlced iiKuln.it th?- oil itself, though aling large quantities of it In tfte '<11111 of lard compound. Thin prejuI!? Is no <I)iiiiil lately due to the .'unity refining methods used by many >>f the manufacturers who turned out an nil of unpleasant flavor which gave it vt-ry iliioikr^able odors In cooking. .\I<mI>tii wii'inv has shed its rays on ihj? Kitat product of our section and iId> nil is now produced in enormous quantities, absolutely free from odor and flavor and ?I must colorless. Shipped mi barrels it llnds its way into the largest bake shops >>f the )'ountry, where ii lakes til)* place of many torn* of lard and butter. Packed in hermitkmly sealed cans it if invading kitchen* of ..in beat families. It is making friends everywhere. The greatly extended uae if cot foil seed oil in t? household has added greatly to the wealth of our farm ers |?y making a sure market for ail the <1 which they can produce. This rapid Inert aw in the uae of the oil has ! mly I wen made possible by improved (' tilling mrinooi wnicn ?crc iuc nsults <>f long. patient and expensive experiments by the leading company In the business. Such experiments oould only he made by the combined recources centered in a large corporation which can command the needed brain* and material* and furnish the necoe sary money outlay to conduct expensive experiments on a practical seal*. The farmer of the south has no better friend than the large companies who are daily striving to Improve the product of his cotton ww) and extend the use of cotton seed oil as a food product, and the most successful of these oomItallies in the manufacture of thaai products is the Southern Cotton Otl Company, whose works are at Savannah.
