TUB VALVIS OE COTTON SEED.
How lt may be TJtUlMdon the Planta?
tion-Its Nutritive Valne aa Food for
Cattle-Fertilising tonalities-Hod? of
Preparation, di*. E2S2w^
There is probably no article which has re?
ceived less attention at the hands of our
Southern planters than cotton seed; and yet
there ls no article produced in such abundance
that can bc turned to so many practical good
uses. Tho product is large, fully averaging
two-thirds in weight of the whole cotton crop;
but until quite recently the full value of this
article had not boon appreciated.
Considered as food for cattle, as fertilizer, or
tor making oil, thc cotton seed has been
proved to oe of inestimable value, in a rela
tlve rank as either of the commodities abov
mentioned, it compares most lavorably, and
exceeds in \ allie any other substitute which
we can tod.
According to the experiments of Lawes, the
distinguished English agriculturist, the manure
derived from stock vanes Immensely in value
according to thc nature of the food on which
tba stock is fed. Thc manure of stock fed on
cotton seed stands first on his list, being moro
than thirty times as valuable as tho manure
from an equal weight of turnips, and four
times more valuable than the manure derived
irom an equal weight of Indian corn.
The following is Mr. Lawes1 table showing
the actual g">ld value of the manure derived
from one t: i (2000 pounds) of different foods
Cotton seed, (hulled.) $27 86; rape seed cake
$21 Ol; linseed cake, $19 72; malt dust, $18 21
lentils, $16 51; linseed, $15 65; tares, $15 75
beans, $15 75; peas, $13 38; locust beans, $4 81
oats, $4 70; wheat, $7 08; Indian corn, $6 65
malt. $6 66; barley, $6 32; clover hay, $9 C4
meadow hay, $6 43; oat straw, S2 90; wheat
straw, $2 68; barley straw, $2 25; potatoes
$1 SO; mangolds, $1 07; Swedish turnips, 91
oents; common tm nips, 86 cents; carrots, ?6
cents.
These actual values are,of course,corrcct only
for England; but the relative values are of uni
vernal application, and for this reason this
table deserves to be studied by every farmer
The relative values seem to be closely con
nee ted witn the amouut ol nitrogenous matter
contained in the food.
Now when we consider that immense quanti
ties of cotton seed are wasted throughout th?
South year after year, we believe lt is time foi
the planters to open their eyes to this valuable
commodity, and utilize it either as food for
their cattle, manure for their soil, or even for
exportation, if the circumstances arc such as
will not permlt of its use at home; but wc
would also suggest that it is on the plantation
itself that it is most profitable, as its qualities
for lecding. and, as manure, we conceive will
bc more valuable to the planter than to any
-one else. Many persons suppose that cotton
seed with the bull ls most valuable as manure;
but this is not so. Late researches demon?
strate that the.oil contained ia the kernel re?
tards the decomposition of the seed, and con?
sequently prevents the liberation of the phos?
phates which are contained in the hull, Just as
the physicians inform ns that the phosphates
-ia the grain of wheat are contained in its hull.
It, therefore, iollows Hist to fertilize properly,
and to the greatest advantage, thc cotton seed
hulls only are to be used. The following is on
analysis (which will be found interesting on
the subject) by Dr. Wayne, of Cincinnati:
VALVE OP HULLED COTTON SEBD COMPARED WITH
THAT OP CORN AND LINSEED (OR OIL CASE) AS A
FOOg ron CATTLE, *:,
The vast amouut Of cotton seed annually pro?
duced in the South has not met the attention as
to its Importance as food lor cattle that its vulue
for the purpose merits, being, as it is, a second?
ary or incidental product. lt has been in a great
measure overlooked, and the staple (cotton) the
only product of the cotton plant that bas been
taken to account. And thus a vast amount of
valuable fodder has for years been thrown away,
partly from a want of knowledge as to its adap?
tation as food, and from thc want of proper ma?
chinery for the hulling of lt so as to render lt Ht
for use.
, As to Ita value for the purpose named, there ls
no more conclusive way of showing or proviug
the fact above mentioned, than by presenting au
an <lysis of the three substances (corn, oil-cake
and cotton seed.) and comparing the results and
facts to be deduced from 'hem.
The anaiy-i t of corn ls as follows:
Water. 15.0
Gluten. ll.o
Starch. 69.0
Sugar. i.o
Gora. 113

From the abve analysis it ls shown that cotton
seed ls a highly concent rat ed rood, and is riche
In flesh-producing elements than either com or
cake meal, but somewhat luferior to corn as a fat
producer, but as a fat producer is fully equal lo
linseed oake. The large amount or oil In the col
ton Bced must make lt a valuable food for winter
use; and lu the usc of lt one point should not be
overlooked, and that ls, overfeeding with euch
rici) and ooncentrale<: food. It should be given
in proper proprrr?rrs with coarse fodder, and
thus used, 1 can see no reason why it may not be
used to thc exclusion of corn, and thus Have and
utilize what bas been, up to the present, as lt
were, a wa>te product, or one regarded us or little
or no value, except for thc purpose of oil manu
facture.
I would fnrthor say that thc foregoing report ls
.based upon the hulled cotton seed, und will not
hold good for the uubulled seed, nor for thc cake
of the nnhuiied seed, the husks of which become
impacted In the intestines of the animals fud
with it, causing inflammation and death, and ls
consequently, unlit for food. E. S. WAYNE.
One ol thc principal drawbacks has probably
been the want of suitable machinery tor thc
preparation of the seed as food, but wc appro
-fiend that this was supplied by the invention of
Shaw's cotton seed huller mode by the Dia
mond Mill Manufacturing Company ofClncin
natl, which has been lately r?tented and intro?
duced to the South. Froii? what we under?
stand of the operations of this machine, it is
?well adapted for the work for which it is de?
signed. It is claimed that it will hull and
-clean from fifteen to eighteen bushels cotton
seed per hour. It may be driven by steam or
horse power, and we believe its cost is trilling; j '??
certainly very small compared with tho gains I I
to the planter. If this machine bo all that it
ls represented to be, we know of no excuse
that any planter can put forward for tho great
waste witnessed in the neglect to render cot
ton seed as valuable at home as the more im?
portant staple of cotton is rendered abroad.
The one should not receive all caro, while the
other, which ls highly valuable, should be en?
tirely neglected. Messrs. Brodie & Co., lac
tors. North Atlantic wharf, are the agents in
Charleston for thc cotton seed huller.
MATTERS IN GEORGIA.
The Newnan, Ga, Herald says tho farmers of
that section Hay that wheat never looked bet?
ter at this time of thc year. In many In?
stances, lt has "bunched," and covered the
gio tad entirely.
The '-Cotton States Mechanics and Agricul?
tural Association," at Augusta, has appropri
ted ten thousand dollars for premiums at their
fair next faM. Twenty thousand dollars, in all,
have been subscribed.
In Mnscogee, (Ja, Superior Court, last week.
Judge Johnson decided that "if the chief en?
gineer of thc fire department or thc mavor of
thc city directed thc house pulled down, to
prevent the spread of the firo, and it was so
pulled down, tho city is liable fur all the
damages scenting to the owners from such
Eniling down, and which would not otherwise
ave been sustained; that ls, if a houso ls
pulled down tor the public good, the public
must remunerate the owner."
The Louisiana .senate has passed a Joint resolu?
tion n-qmnug thc late auditor. Wickliffe, to de?
liver to his successor half a million of abstracted
coupons; the Joint resolution authorizing the
Oovemor and Treasurer to issue bonds for loans
passed; also the bin incorporating the Mississippi
