Mills, Electric [I'rtvrer mid Hatton's
Ford.
The Intelligencer has had much to
say recently about the remarkably
rapid growth of manufacturing indus
tries in thia County. Cotton mill after
cotton mill has been established within
the last few months, adding thousands
of spindles to an already highly credi
table industrial showing. There are
now in operation and in course of
actual construction in this county cot
ton mille aggregating :>05,000 spindles.
In addition, there is at Portman, on
.Seneca Uiver, ? miles distant, an elec
trical power plant furnishing ."?,000
electrical horse power to the city of
Anderson, all of which is consumed by
the mills, the small industries and iii
lighting tho city. Thia industrial de
velopment has been at Anderson and
along the eastern border of the County
-Piedmont and Pelzer along the
Saluda River, and Williamstou, Helton
and Honoa Path along the ?Southern
Railway track.
No section of this State baa made
such rapid strides in the development
of natural resourced in tho past two
?ear? aa bas Anderson County, and the
ntelligencer has devoted much time
and apace to keeping every movement
made in thia direction prominently be
fore the people, thna aiding aa best it
could the aucceaaof theae various en
terprises.
Those of our people who formulated
the plana and carried into execution
the varioua details, which made per
niaueut the industries abovo referred
to, are to be congratulated. They
have accomplished a work which will
tell wonderously for voara to come in
the development of thia section of tho
the State, but this article is intended
to point to the fact that what hus boen
done ia but a beginning of the devel
opment of tho resources of Anderson
County. Aa has been said, tho indus
trial development has been at Ander
son aud along the eastern bordor of
the County. Beyond tho development
of 5,000 electrical horse-power at Port
man, all of which is consumed here in
tho city, nothing of an industrial na
ture hus been done in tho western por
tion of tho county. The Townships of
Savannah, Rock Mills, Fork, Pendle
ton and part of Garvin comprises this
Boction, and are perhaps tho most pro
ductive Townships ot tho County. On
Tiumioo River, which borders Fork
Township on tho south, at Hutton's
F > I. a distance of 14 miles from An
v" i sou on a straight line, are shoals
ac.uao WHICH ti dam can bu constructed
at a nominal coat and n water power
obtained which can be made to gener
ate 20,000 electrical hoi so-power, net,
transmitted to Anderson. Phis is not
speculation, but based upon careful
surveys and calculations made by
highly reputable engineers. This prop
erty is owned and controlled by citi
zen? of Anderson. A few moments'
reflection will present to tho mind the
wonderful possibilities of Anderson
with this power developed. It will be
sufficient to furnish sixteen milla the
size of the Orr Cotton Mill, or a multi
tude of smaller industries, lc would
make possible an industrial develop
ment more than double that we now
have and an increase in population of
at least 20,000 souls. All that is now
in tho way of the immediate establish
ment ut these shoals of a power plant
ia want of unanimity of action on tho
fiart of those of our people now in the
end in industrial development. There
ia no lack of money nor is there lack of
confidence, buta lack of coining to
Sether in concert of action. Why, it ia
ifticolt to tull, because all who know
anything of tho enterprises already
launched can readily see that contracts
for a very considerable amount of elec
trical horse-power could bu signed to
day, producing an income sufficient to
make the bonds for such nu tun er prise
a ready aale in the money markets.
The plant at Portman produces 5,000
electrical horse-power, which is only
snfticieut to run three mills, thu small
industries and light tho city. They
have not to -day a dollar's wort li of
power for aale. The industries already
in operation and to be put in operation
in the near future-industries in actual
course of conetruction, leaving out the
the R. S. Hill mill, the building of
which is an assured fact-will need all
of 5,000 horse-power, and should they
decide upon electrical power and enter
into contracts for power io be furnish
ed from Hutton's Ford, ou Tugaloo
River, before another cotton season
thia power would be developed and the
population of Anderson would be
climbing rapidly towaidsUO.OOO inhabi
tants. And all depends simply upon a
few of our leading men getting to
gether.
The development of this power
means too much to the city of Ander
son to be lost. It means more cotton
mills and hundreds of small industries
and a rich and populous ci ty. It makes
possible the liukiug together of adja
cent towna by electric railways and
the development of resources which
will always remain dormant if steam
power be depended upon.
That this power caunotbe developed
and lost to Anderson must not be re
garded too lightly. The contour of tho
country around lint ton's Ford ia ideal
aaa situ foi* a mill and mill village.
Elberton, Ca., can be reached in 10
miles by railway, electrical or blanch
of the Southern, on a ridge where there
would be practically nu grading and
absolutely no tresse I mg, and Hartwell,
only 8 miles from Hutton's Ford, with
Kl her ton, could take all the power not
needed by the mills established at the
power plant.
For those in position ld help td suc
cess the development of this great re
source of Anderson County lo hit with
no show of interest while i he industries
already eslablishtd ure placing their
orders for steam power, is cont rai y to
tue spirit heretofore exhibited by our
leading men andi?hard to understand.
Had it not already been demonstrated
that" e?erhicai power is decidedly
cheaper than steam, the recent condi
tions in tho coal fields of Pennsylvania
would appear to bu quite sufficient to
teach them tu take no chances. Two
hundred thousand miners tm a strike
and ateam coal (anthracite) at $12 to
$18 per ton waa the situation less than
a week ago and may be again nt any
time. Organized labor baa demonstra
ted ita power to wago war tu succeaa,
the operators are smarting under the
conditions which forced them to ac
knowledge the labor organization, aud
if affairs remain quiet and sereno for
any great length of time* it will be sur
prising._

Theres was considerable frost hero
Wednesday and Thursday morning of
last week, but not enough to injure
anything except very lute corn und
cotton.
The cotton crop is nearly all picked
except the late patches that put on a
?inall crop ot bolls after the July rains
commenced. Thc farinera concede
that the crop here ia from one-third to
one-half short. Private letters from
Texan state that it is more than one
half ort' in middle Texas, the main cot
ton belt tho State. But specula
tors, despite all crop reports to the
contrary, are estimating tho crop at
11,000,000 bales, so as to reduce the
price until it passes out of the hands of
the producer.
The farmers in this section are con
gratulating themselves on having
raised enough hog nud hominy this
year to feed themselves next year,
which will greatly reduce expenses and
make them less dependent on the cot
ton crop.

THE ADVANTAGES WHICH ACCRUE
TO THE FARMER.
Some of the Profit He Realizes by the
Establishment of Cotton Seed Oil /Ailis.
No manufacturing industry stands
a? close to the farmer as the cotton
seed oil milla. The interest of the two
are mutual and inseparable. 'A very
large part of the products of the oil
mili? la now returned to the 'arm and
practically ail of it in som? 'orin can
be utilized.
The mill provides a profitable market
for the surplus seed, and returns the
product to Hie farmer, with greatly
enhanced value in a finished condition.
While th<> larger part of the business
between the mill and the farmer ls
conducted on a basis of barter and ex
change, lt does not actually ditter
much in results from the toll system of
the corn mill.
The oil mill purchases the seed In
the open market, and sells its products
in the same way, hut ultimately, all
nf the hulls and meal should get back
to the farms from which the seed were
shipped. Willie this is now thc reault
in many cases, lt ls not as common or
general as the practice should be. Ev
ery pound of these two products pro
duced in the Smith should le- returned
lo the land, either as fertilizer ap
plied direct, or stock feed, the latter
much to bc preferred, as their value
in that way ls Immensely increased.
About 1X30 a cotton seed oil mill waa
established at Columbia, S. C. The
historian of the time only considered it
of sufllolent Importance to congratu
late the "public-spirited" citizen who
had enterprise enough to establish the
huslness, but did make the : arther
i'Oinmen' that th" owner "expressed
from cc ton ?oed a very fair grade of
edible oil." No further reference is
made to this beginning of the busi
ness, and il can only he inferred that
the improper handling of Ute product,
or the prejudices of the people against
this .'edible oil." prevented it from be
ing successful. in ISCO Aldigee
found thousands of tons of
seed dumped on the commons, and
placed unuer guard td prevent the
cows from eating them, as they were
regarded as poisonous to cattle.
From such conditions lias grown a
magnificent industry that has added
millions to the value of Southern
farms, increased the traffic of the i ail
roads, established an immense foreign
trade with this country, earned fair
returns for its promoters, while giving
employment to thousands of men at
remunerative wages, many of whom
otherwise would be idle at the season
when their work is required at the
mills.
In all of thia development the great
est benefits have been derived by the
farmers. The mills have taken the seed
which prior to their establishment,
were either lost entirely or wastefully
used, and converted them into valuable
products, easily and economically
handled, resulting in the cheaper pro
duction of crops, and Increased yields
per acre.
Raising and fattening cattle has been
one of the Interesting features of thia
development. The fattening of cattle
in the South for market, outside, per
haps, of the Texas ranges, was un
known before the extensive use of cot
ton seed hulla and meal. At present,
almost every neighborhood is raising
a few head of cattle for the butcher
on this feed, and In many sections,
numbers of cattle are being fattened
i In thia way. 'Aa this business Increases
it will be followed by the erection of
packing houses In the South with all
the advantages of such Industries.
Any land-owner can make fattening
cattle profitable. It has been chemi
cally demonstrated, sustained by prac
! tlcal tests that the droppings from cat
I tie fed on cotton seed meal is equal in
feeding value to the meal itself applied
directly to the land. No other feed
has any such comparative value.
When this is considered, the immense
advantages derived by the farmers
from the establishment of cotton seed
! oil mills is realized even if no other
benefits accrue, but when the abund
ance and cheapness of hulls Is consid
ered, and their value to the farmer
and feeder recognized, some idea is
given of the splendid work and advan
tages the other mills have accom
plished towards the development of
Southern agriculture.
In almost any season, regardless of
the price of seed and products, the
mills of the Southern Cotton Oil Mill
Company of the Carolinas and Georgia
will give back to the farmers all of the
meal and hulls produced from the seed
in exchange for the seid, reserving
only the oil. and small amount of short
lint to cover transportation charges,
cost of working, interest on Investment
and profits. No more liberal division
of the profits between manufacturers
and consumer has "fever been accom
plished. It makes the business co
operative, returning to the farmer all
that is of any value to him, in a great
ly improved condition, and consequent
ly greatly increased in valus, and
leaving with the mill only that part
of the ceed universally regarded as de
trimental in its natural condition,
either ns a feed or fertilizer, from
which the mill must reo'ize all of its
expenses, including coat of working.
The oil ls converted at the refineries
In Savannah into pure and whole
some substitutes for lard, known as
"Palmatlna" and "Snowdrift," and ls
given beck to the consumers' table as
a delicacy nt a low price, or as a pure
cooking ell, as Wesson Cooking Oil.
The refuse or waste from the refined
oil is made into a soap, und sold back
at a cost that place.' lt In the. reach of
the poorest. The lint ls made into
quilts, pillows and mattresses and sold
at a price thrvt ranken lt possible for
the bed-vnomn of th? humblest cot ti se
to be comfortably furnished.
In buying or Tailing c attle to bn ;at
tened en hull:- and meal, every . frort
should be made to secure good beef
producing breads. A prominent and
successful packer ls authority for tho
statement that the Improved breeds
will sell on foot for three times as
much ns the common stock.
.The conatm ption of beef in thp South
far oxece ! - eny previous period. It
can be met by home production If
Southern farmers will use ali the hull?
and meal mud" by tit" oil mills, with
out drawing or. the West. At present
only about one-fourth of the cotton
seed meal ls ronrUW?d where lt Is pro
duced for feeding and fertilizing crops,
the balance finding a market either in
Europe or In the Eastern or Western
States.
The cotton oil Industry has been de
veloped when it was most needed by
the ponnlo nf tho Routh .'??peolnlly \yy
the Southern Cotton Oil Company,
which has mills throughout the South
and general her;deserters at Columbia,
S. C., Goldsboro. N. C.. Charlotte, If.
C.. Atlanta, Ca., and Savannah and
Augusta. Ga Its only danger is In
being over-done. It should get to
such proportions as to have the crush
ing capacity run ahead of the produc
tion of seed, or the production of oil
increase faster than the consumption,
the results would be disastrous both to
the mill owners, and to the farmers.
lt ls a business requiring a high order
of commercial intelligence for Its suc
cessful continuance, and lt ls manifest
ly to the interests of the manufacturer
and to the farraer to keep it well with
in reasonable bounds.
