Tho Heneen Oil Mill anti Fertilizer
Company*
Tho abovo enterprise in our siBtor town
deserves moro than ? passing notice lt
has boon projected and put into oporation
during tho past six or olght mouth's, and
will, in our opinion, provo a paying in
vestment to it? stookholdors. The plant
cost somothing ovor twolv'a thousand
dollars. Tho buildings and maohinory
oro in ovory respect first class, and ovory- j
thing works smoothly and satisfactorily.
Wo wore vory niuo!) interested a fow days
ago in watching tho procoss, in all its
complex and devious way., of turning
cotton seed, first into oil, and then tho
nical from tho cotton socd into a high
grade first class fertilizer. Tho sood aro
first carried into gins, made especially
for tho purpose, which takes off all tho
lint remaining on the seed, which is a
groat deal moro than wo had any Idea of,
amounting to about sixteon bales on
forty thousand bushols .of seed. This
cotton is packed in hales and sold, wo
aro informed, to hat manu factmers, who
convert lt Into hats, and it is prohahlo
that many of us wear our own cotton, or
a part of it at least, on our heads. From
tho gins tho seed are passed to tho h?'llor,
which removes tho hull, and tho seed aro
thou passed on to tho mill which grinds
tho seed into meal, and tho meal is thou
convoyed into largo stoam chests or
hoilors, and after undergoing a steam
ing or boating process, tho meal is con
voyed Into largo pans two and a half foot
long by ono foot broad, twelve in number,
and placed into a hydraulic press, which
has a pressing power equal to tinco
thousand pounds to thc square inch.
This iniiuonso power soon presses tho oil
out of the meal cake, which runs into a
largo tank or vat underneath, which is
afterwards pumped into two hugo receiv
ing tanks outside the building, ready to
ho barreled up and shipped to market.
Cob H. Frank Sloan, tho gone.al business
manager, informed us ho had just ship
ped Ids first car load of fifty barrels to
tho Now York market. This oil is worth
now twonly cents a gallon. After tho
oil is all pressed out of tho meal it is
then ground up, mixed with tho neces
sary puro materials, making a splendid
guano, containing ammonia 2.50, phos
phoric acid available 8.00, and soluhlo
potassa 1.50. This fertilizer is finding a
ready salo in our own county, Col. Sloan
having shipped several ear loads to agents
and purchasers. Tho company expects
to muko two hundred or moro tons this
season. Gol. Sloan has named his fertili
zo!' tho "Blue Ridge Guano," in honor of
our beautiful mountains which risc up
majestically and grandly along Oooneo's
Western boundary. He says that this
guano has been made especially for this
portion of thc Slate, where, oil account of
tl?o ?.nlioHuok.'i! ol' tin. BflOSOH^i it will
greatly hasten tho maturity of the crops.
Col. Sloan informed us that he had pur
chased forty thousand bushels of cotton
seed this season, which will make twenty
six thousand or moro gallons of oil. Thc
mill began work on tho 10th of January
and will have seed enough to keep tho
mill running until thc 1st of May. Ten
hands are oin ployed, who aro kept con
stantly at work from carly morning until
nine o'cl ?ck at night. Six tons ol seed
aro converted into oil and guano each
day. A splendid sixty horse power en
gine runs all the machinery with ease
Tho cotton seed hulls furnishes about
half tho fuel to run tho engine. Col.
Sloan, with his excellent business qualifi
cations and good judgment, is Uie right
man in the right placo, as general mana
ger of this new and promising enterprise.
To him WO are indebted for' the kindness
shown in carrying us through tho mill
and explaining tho modus operandi of
convert ing cotton seed into oil and guano.
Indeed and in truth "Cotton is King."
