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.
