A NEW OIL MILL. "The Farmers' Cotton Seed Oil Mill-of Newberry"-Its Success is Already Assured. -The Farmers' Cotton Seed Oil %lill of Newberrv! That sounds well, a'.nd it ought to work well. It is the opinion of many farmers and other business men that it will be working well before six months have passed. And why sh'ould it not work well? The farmer produces the seed and he consumes the meal and hulls. which are two of the parts into which seed are separated by milling. Why should not the farmer do the separa ting for himself? The other two pro ducts of the mill, oil -and lint, will pay several times for milling. Why, then, sell seed an'd buy meal and hulls at an enormous advance in price over the cost of milling? Of course, there is one difficulty in the way, a difficulty which some of the mills have failed to meet. It is just this: During the past year or two some mills have found it very hard to separate the" hulls from the meal and than keep tiem apart. Peo ple have fodiid in a sack of pure meal as much as i5 or 2o pounds of hulls. How the h(Als got there, no one seems to kniw. Somie say that inas much as th4'meal and hulls grew to gether they;ev,elped a-tro.ng...affin it.y for each other which is able to defy bins and bags. Obje"tion is raised to this explanation because of the fact that not..many years ago the mills had ro trouble in keeping the -bulls and meal apart. In answer to this, the affinity theory, -people say that while the old variety of . seed gave no trouble of this kind, yet it must be remembered that the farmers are now using improved seed and this tendency to mix is one of their strong points. Of course. some people sug gest quite a-different explanation. but it is not worth mentioning here. But whatever the true explanation may be, it is. a serious matter to the farmer and -he owes it to himself to ,ind a remedy. It has been urged that the mere presence of a second mill in Newberry might so frighten the local hulls that they would not dare mix with the meal. hence an-. other mill for Newberry is advocated. For the erection of this mill about $x5,ooo has been subscribed and the canvass is not complete. But this is enough with which to form an organ ization. For this purpose a meeting will be held at Newberry. Saturday. April 16, at eleven o'clock. Every subscriber is urged to be present. All who are interested. but have not yet subscribed, are earnestly invited to at tend the meeting and subscribe then. Don't wait to be canvassed. The help of every one who raises seed or uses hulls and meal is needed. This is our opportunity. Success in some measure is already assured, Sbut the size of our success will be in direct proportion to the number of men who co-operate in this matter. At this meeting a constitution will he adopted and a hoard of directors elected, It is impo;tant that you be there. Then come to the meeting. put your money into a mill that ought to pay you well, and help to keep the hulls and meal from mixing. Remember the shares are but ten dollars each, and the terms of pay ment are easy. Let every one take one or more shares. Don't forget the time. Saturday. April i6. at i1 a. m. I. H.
