What has cotton to do with dalryig?
Cotton seed products ha\o beotiio
the most popular food stufC for
utile. because or tho low prloo ftnd
to most excellent results. They uro
to natural cattle feed for tho cotton
gion. on accctant or s.i\ing in freight
nd the easy un<l convenient access,
trange to say, tho vnluo o? theso prouets
was not llrst discover d In their
atlvo home. It remained tor German
.dentists to point out tin !v great
nlue. tlorman agriculturists are ulays
standing ready to make use or
to dls' overles i?f science, and so they
nported v ist quantities of cottrm seed
leal from this country and used It lor
tttle feed In their dairies years before
v?r own people woke up to the great
assibllltles In cotton seed ineul as a
ed stuff. Dut It is now very well
Mown that cotton seed meal, in collection
with cotton seed hulls, make
to most valuable cattle foods that uro
callable, especially that offered i?y
to Southern Cotton Oil company of
te Carolinas and Georgia, at any of
telr mills or at -heir hoailmittrturs, ut
olumola, S. ('., Savannah, Oa., Atintn,
Ga., or ltnlelgh, N. O.
There Is one fact in connection with
ittlo feeding; on cotton seed products
lat is not generally given the promicnco
that Its importance demands,
his is tho value of the manure,
lost exhaustive experiments have
jen made, both in this country and in
urope, with a view to limling the
lotion hot ween tho feed and tho retlting
excrement from cattle, 'A'
lost important and far-reaching collusion
has been reached, and it is
ie which does not admit of any
jubt. This Is that practically nil of
ie nitrogen that is fed to cattle reppears
in the excrement* about half
i the solid and half in the' liquid.
Itrogen is the most expensive Ingreent
In all food .stuffs, and in tijl forlizers.
Hence tills discovery Js a
ost? important one, leading t y the
stounding fact that tho present eomercial
value of cotton seed meal asja
ed stuff is but half its jreal value,
hen properly understood. It means
lat the full value of tho nitrogen in
ie meal may bo utilized in feeding,
id then, if sufficient care bo taken to
ive solid and liquid manure the whole
' the nitrogen may be collected and
a-d again us a manure. Thero Is a
irthei value in this, in that the form
the nitrogen in this manure, taken
ith tho other elements, chemical and
echanica), makes the manure a betr
fertilizer than the original meal. *.
Tho general statement that practlliy
all of the nitrogen fed to cattle
appears in tho excrement, might lead
the conclusion (which would be
sily self-contradictory) that nitrogen
eds are of no value to cattle, and that
is in no way assimilated or made use
by the animal economy. Nothing is
ire- miniy esiaousneu man tnatnitronous
feeds arc most important, in
oducing l><>t>1 beef and butter; but it
not yet well understood how the antal
uses the nitrogen and then exetes
it. It may be that the nitrogen
Jin the air is utilized, or it may be
at through some transformation in
e system the nitrogen does its work,
d is then rejected.
There is a perfect analogy in the use
nitrogen in making sulphuric acid,
is necessary to supply a certain
lount of nitrogen to make the process
erative. and yet all of this nitrogen
.her recovered or lost, none of it'
tually being retained in the sulphuric
id.
The cotton plant requires a large
lount of nitrogen, and this may'be
pplied with the manure from dairy,
ttle, which themselves feed oh cotton
oducts, and in the Interim, turn out
pge amounts of valuable milk cream,
d butter. Then dairying on the cotu
farm becomes a logical occupation,
lero are now many cotton seed oil
lis of the Southern Cotton Oil Co. so
dely scattered that it is easy for any
tton farmer to trade Wis cotton seed
r meal and hulls, and thus provide1
mself with valuable feed stuffs for
try or beef cattle, and incidentally
ocure the very best fertilizer that is
own?the manure from cattle malnned
on nitrogenous feeds.
Vstdc from all considerations of marial
value, the relative feed value of
tton seed meal and hulls Is showit
tow, in connection with relatlvo Value
