tr? reh and Cubaver Than Lard.? i s
fho New York Times is very deeply {
impressed by the frank admission of Mr.
Philip 1). Armour, of Chicago, that tho
uie of cotton seed oil iu the manufacture
of lard and hog products has grown to such
an extent iu late years "that his establishments
alone consume one-fifth of the total
cotton oil product of tho Uuitcd States."
Taking this coufessiou in connection with
the further statement volunteered by Mr.
Armour that tho American Cotton Oil
Trust, 'which now coutrols almost tho
entire busiuess of making oil from cotton
seeed, ' has entered the field ''as a lard
producer," tho limes was impelled to an
investigation which has yielded some inter
estiug results. '
It, has been ascertained, lor instance,
that a ton of cotton seed yields from 35 to (
40 gnllous of oil. and that 500,000 tons of j
seed were crushed in 'he mills hist year.
The total oil product, therefore, was be- .
twocn 17,500,000 and 20,000,000 gallous.
Mr. Armour admits that he uses in his
lard factories aluno onj-fifih of the total
amount, or from 3,500,000 to 4,500,000 (
gallons annually. Another largo quantity
must be used by other uiauufactucrs of
lard who compete with Armour & Co.,
since the business is so firmly established
on this basis, as has been shown, that the
American Oil Trust, which has hitherto
supplied all the lard-makers with oil, has i
itsolf g >uo into the related "industry ns a |
matter of course.
The Timrs docs not understand that ,
cotton seed oil has any injurious effect (
upon those who cat the lard into whLh it ,
so largely enters, but is indignant that the f
adulteration should be imposed upon the |
consumer. However wholesomo the mix- .
turo of lard aud oil, tho Times rightly ar- ,
guos. it is not what it protends to be, and j
tho consumer who pays for the cheaper j
product the p. ieo of the more expensive ar- j
tielo for which it is sold, is plainly swindled .
iu the traoactiou. t
This is true enough, aud wo assuredly ,
havo not a word to say in defence of the (
onoruious fiaud upon the public, which has (
thus been cxposud. Xor have we any idea ^
that the exposure ulouc will havo the
slightest effect upou the wholesale fraudu- ?
lent practice complained of. Tho cotton ?
B^cd oil is '-very much cheaper than lard," (
and there is too much money iu tho mix- (
ture to permit its manufacture to bo vol- ,
untarily abandoned by tho corporations ,
whom it has enriched. Its value to the (
lard makers may, indeed, bo estimated
froai tho fact that the new company, with
Mr. Armour at their head, propose to erect
at once about twenty-five new mills for the
manufacture of the oil, to put ?10,000,000
into the enterprise; and have openly avowed
their intcntiou to held all the stock' of
tl^cguugauy in their own hands, aud re
uervo iuc wuoio product of the mills for |
their own peculiar uses!
It may be confidently assumed that these
interesting facts would not have been divulged,
but lor the querrol between the (
Trust Coinpauy and the lard makers and (
mixers, llad the Trual Company coutined
it-> sphere of operations to making the oil j
and selling it to the lard men, the awind- ,
img of the cot ton seed producers and of the ]
consumers of lard would have gone on iu- ,
dctioitely, to the satisfaction and profit of
both the great monopolies, at least. Now
that the rogues have fallen out, however,
aud havc made their secret known, tho
part of wisdom, for the press, is evidently
to turn the knowledge thus acquired to the
host possible advantage of the public.
llow this may be douc is very plain,
and wc would earnesly direct the attention
of the Times, the World, and other papers
which have taken up tho subject, to the
piacucai ami ucncucnl lesson which the
monopolists have taught so convincingly,
ami which ouly requires to be set plainly
befo:c the people in order to enable them
to protect themselves in the most effectivo
way.
The Times docs not understand 'that
the cotton seed oil has an injurious effect
"upon those who cat it." Our contemporary
might have said a great deal more
than this. The World is nearer the mark
in the statement that cotton seed oil "is a
good, clean, vegetable product," and a val- .
uahle addition to tlu> resources of the coun- (
try. A great part of the exported product
goes, as is well known, direct to the olive
oil producors of Europe and comes hack to (
this country in the shape of'pure olive oil,'
to be used l'or all the purposes for which
olive oil is used. Jly very many people in
the South it has long since been substituted
wholly for lard for all cooking purposes, at
a great saving of expense and with satisfactory
results in every way. Wherever
the two are tried side by side, tho cotton
seed oil turely wins its way into pernia
ncnt favor, and, dispite the manifest difficulty
of overcoming old notions and c fleet- i
ing so decided a change in tho economy i
of the kitchen, its sale and use in placo of <
lard is rapidly increasing every year. I
There is no doubt, then, about the cot- \
ton ee d oil being a clean, pure and whole- |
some substitute for lard. What is of equal <
importance to poor people is that, besides <
being very much cheaper in price, it is I
more economical in uso, a given quantity
of the oil ' going as far," rn cooking, as ^
double the quantity of lard. What the |
Time* and tho World and other newspaper* 1
should do, therefor.', iu the present omer.
;cney, is to bring these certain facts to the ii
knowledge of consumers. Tho lard uian- ii
ifacturotH have plainly demonstrated and g
widely advertised to tho whole people of d
he United Suites that cotton seed oil aud n
ard can bo used together lor all purposes j
for which lard can bo used alone. Let tho \
newspapers now couviucc themselves and 1
their readers, as ban readily be accotu- f
plished by strict investigation that c
Ti c* Inrd nan iut loPr nnf nf ilto m!v_ v
.ure cutirely to the Advantage of the cob- t
miner, mid there will be no need of legis- c
ation or any other means to break up either I
ho lard swindle, or the cotton seod oil inon- t
ipolios which propose to maintain it for t
heir own oxclusivc profit. a
Management ok Soils.?A soil would
icvcr get exhausted if managed with skill,
jut would cotuiuue to improvo in depth
ind fertility in proportion to the industry
icstowcd upon it. The food of plants, it is
'.rue, may be exhausted from the soil by a .
repetition of cropping with auy one family
af plants, if wo neglect the application of
such fertilizers as may havo boon taken
from the soil by that family ; but no part
of tho growing season is required for the
soil to rest, or lie faljoiv, if judiciously
managed by a successive varying of tho
crops, or by supplying-to them such food
as may be a compensation for what has
been taken oiF by the previous crop. Tho .
lirsL objoct to bo attained for securing a
ccrtaiu and profitable return of produce
from the soil must bo the rough drainage. ; .
the next object is, breaking into the subsoil .
to the desired depth?not without first considering
whether it is proper and profitable
to shift or turn up the subsoil at once .
,o the influence of the atmosphere, or
vhcther it be best to break into it well x
irst, by shifting the surface soil and allowng
the subsoil to remain and receivo?first
ho beneficial influence of the atmosphere,
md then, at the trenching, a portion of
lie subsoil may be safeiy stirred up and *
nixeil with the surface soil; this practice, *
joutiuued for every succeeding crop, will v
islablish a healthy fertilizing surface soil ^
o any desired debt. r
If repeated stirrings of tko surface are
idoptcd, aocordiug to the nature of the *
toil aud weather, evory growiug crop will 8
continue in healthy luxuriance, without v
iver buffering by receiving injury from 1
Loo lunch moisture, drought or frost. Iu
addition, by constantly scarifying, hociug 1
or forking the surface soil, not only obnox- (
ious insects and their larva) are expelled,
but weeds would never make their appear- [
auce, much loss have a chance of couiuiitt 1
ing their accustomed robbery of the soil
and crops. Besides by such repeated stir- '
ring, the soil is always prepared, sweet and
healthy, for succeeding crops?no mean 1
consideration, either, when wo observe the
loss of time and produce occurring to such '
a ruinous extent in some localities, by al- '
lowing weeds to rob and choke the growing '
crops, and to shed their seeds, productive !
of a progctiv similarly injurious to the
crops next iu rotation. 1
The application of manure is most es- (
iential, and may bo applied most beuefi- (
cially when a soil is established in a
healthy condition, and maintained thus by 1
a constant attention to surface stirring. 1
Yet the application of mauuro is a second- 1
nry consideration; for though it may be '
1 :.i? c
?v;aj uuui.ui^ ckfjM nu, ?iuu wini luuMUt'ra- i
ble expense, yet without first iu.-uring tho 1
hcalthl'ulnesa of the soil, much property
and labor will be sacrificed.
Neatness in Dress at IIome.?Tho
importance of neat and tasteful housedressing
cannot be over estimated. The
matron who appears beforo the members of
her family in a shabby, soiled wrapper, and
makes the excuse?if, iudced, she takes tho
trouble to make one at all?that 'it is so
much more comfortable,' has little idea of
the possible cousequences of such a course .
Could she but realize that her dress is an
evil example to her daughters, and one
productivo of consequences that will reach
far beyond her own span of life ; that her
husband nnd sons cannot fail to draw comparisons
between her dress and that of the
ladies they meet in other homes, and that
these comparisons cannot fail to decrease
their respect for her, she might be induced
to give more attention to hur personal appearance.
Not even the burden of care
and constant employment can furnish a
sufficient excuse for careless personal habits,
for few things are more important to
the well being of a family.

- ? The
True System op Fa.rmiwo.?-Tryug
to do too much, is the common error nto
which the farmer often tolls. Ilis ti
;reat eagcruoss iu striving to bo rich, is c
loubtless the oause of bis error. He is I
imbitious and energetic, and forma his b
dans on a largo scale, too often, perhaps, a
vithout counting the cost. Ho buys a li
argo farm aud wauts to be called ~ft "largo o
aruier," without understanding or oonsid- o
tring the true elements that constituo a c
oil farmer. He fancies the greatness of g
hat profession, as is too often the common t
istimatc, to be in proportion to the num- o
>cr of acres, not to say cultivated, but em- o
traced within the boundaries of his do- 8
naiu. Tho fact is now boing spread i
tbroad, that a largo farm docs not make a t
nan either rich, contented or happy, hut c
tu tho contrary, the reverse of all these, c
inlcss well tilled, when his labor is reward- C
;d by ample crops and fair success in the c
various departments in which ho is ongag- i
?d. No farmer can realize the full bene- C
its of his profession without adopting a \
thorough system of culture. His success, 1
souHuensuratc to his wishes, always dcpcuds j
upou the manner in which he prepares his <
grounds, plants his seed, and rears his 1
stock. Neither of these departments, 1
which may be considered the cardinal (
)nes of his profession, will take care of t
themselves. Tho 6oil may be rich, hut it i
leods culture. Ilis seed may be sown, but 1
it should bo in due time, aud always on c
(oil well prepared and of a suitablo quali- 1
y ior me production 01 tne crop desired, i
His stock must bo constantly cared for? \
t derives its thrift from the soil, and scuds a
igaio to that soil the sustenance it re- t
juiros; but this is not dono in a loose or i
lap-hazard way. Tko farmer's care is re- 1
(uired, and all his bettor judgment must i
>o oxerciscd iu keeping up this system of 1
coiprocal benefits that may be realized by c
ivcry intelligent and industrious farmer. ?
Thorough cultivation and systematic nt- '
cntiou to all parts of his business is iudis- 1
lensable to a good degrco of success. The ^
'ery corner stone to the whole system of 0
arming, is to do what you do thoroughly? ^
lature will not ho cheated, aud never gives ^
ull returns to tho half-wuy work that is ^
iracticcd by vastlj too many calling them- ^
elves farmers. If the laud has been 1
voru, the extent of that exhaustiou and ^
he food required, must bo first considered. 1
iVbcu ascertained, the full measure of (
heso r.'quiruients must be given, to bring '
>ut full returns. If tho farmer has but a
smull stock, and consequently but a small (
imouut of manure to replenish his land, it I
is obvious that but a small farm can ,
bo supplied with it ; and good judgment at i
auco dictates that to cultivate properly a
large farm, artificial fertilizers must bo
used if good crops aru obtained. Aud so ,
with the labor, two men cannot suitably
till one hundred acres of land, when the
I
labor of two men and perhaps fonr, might
uo profitably employed on seventy-fivo
teres. ]
This is the great error in farming. Tw# <
lien strive to do what four men can hardly i
lo, and thus thousands of acres aro run i
jver, half tilled, and producing half crops.
Tho laud is run over till worn out, eustain- i
lag year after year the unnatural tax, till I
its energies are ontiroly exhausted and it |
fails to yield even a feeble crop, because its i
life is worn out. Much of the soil in Vir- '
ginia and other Southern States is a type
of this. Thousands of acres are lying en
tirely useless and exhausted, and will ovor
remain so, till the first elements of its
power are returned to it. Tho process is
fust going on in many of the Western
States The soil is treated like an inexhaustible
mine; tho tillers crying, give,
give, give! till in a few years it will have
nothing to give. The boast of tho West is,
large farms and large fields of grain; plow,
sow and reap, is tho business of the Western
farmers, drawing out the very life of
the soil, sending away in tho heavy exports
that are constantly going onward, without
returning to tho soil the food it requires
to make it productive.
The light that is being spread abroad on
this subject, is beginning to correct this
practice to some extent, but iu most instances
very little is returned to the soil to
keep it alive, till after sev -ral years of continual
cropping, it manifests signs of exhaustion
and ultimate barrenness. When
tillers of the soil understand their truo interests,
they will cultivate no more land
than they can do well. Fifty acres of
land for tillage, brought to a high state of
cultivatiou, pays better than one hundred
run over in tho way that many do.

The htbtbut op "*ms Cotton Plant.
-Beforo the birth "<j( Christ tho cultivaioo
of tho plant and tho use of cotton for
lathing was probably confined to Indi3.
Ierodotus, who lived in tho fifth century
cforc Christ, reports that tho Indians had
plant which bore, instead of fruit, a wool
ike that of the sheep, but finer and better,
f which they made clothes, and Arrian
larrates that the Indians made their
lotbes of a fino white kind of flax, which
;row on trees. Other uations do not seem
o have cultivated the plant at that time,
r even to have used cotton, at all events
uly exceptionally, as n rare expensive,
tuff.. Thus, it is assumed, that the precous
material called byssus, spoken of ainoug
ho Jews, was cotton. The growth of
lotton and its use, secui to havo be:omo
diffused shortly after the birth of
Jhrist. Strabo (in the first century of our
ira) sponks of cottou boing cultivitcd and
nauufucturcd in Susiuua, on the Vcrfiian
3ulf; and Pliny mentions that the plunt
vas cultivated, not ouly in India, but iu
Jppcr Egypt, aud Hays that tho Egyptian
jricsts used the material tbcro grown for
slothing. In all probability the Arabs
jrougbt tho cultivation of cotton into
Europe. In tbo time of Mahomet tho use
>f cotton was genera) among them. Al,hough
thcro existod at a very early period
i trade in cotton goods from India to
fiuropo. which took place partly by way
if Constantinople, and partly by way of
Sgypt, which trado became generally oxended,
still the use of Cottou stuffs was
rcry limited throughout tho middle ages;
iud, although there wore cotton manufacorics
iu Granada iu tho thirteenth century,
n Venice iu the fourteenth century ; in
.'"landers iu the Hixtceuth century, and lastly
q England, in the scvcntccth century, (at
oast of stuffs in wbiok the woof was of
iotton ;) these manufactures wero iuconsidirablc
in Europe till after the miudle of tho
ast century. Few cottou goods wero in
ise, and uio>t of these were imported from
ndiannd Cliiua. It was iu itself improb,blo
that it could be made to pay to cstabisk
cottou manufactories iu Europe, for the
!udians and Chinese had brought theso
irauches of manufactures to a considerable
legrec of perfection, the transport of tho
aw material from suoh distaut regious uecissarily
increased tho prieo of tho manlfacturcd
article, whilo the cost of labor is
ixtremcly low iu India, on account of tho
bw necessities of the natives.
