SOUTH UHOUA NEXT TO MASSACHUSETTS ‘THE SCIENCE OF FEEDING-" % KkJney trouble preys upon the mind. d»^ Wurages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble haa become so prevalent that it is not uncommon , for a child to be born afflicted with weak kid- ' T - neys. If the child urin- »ates too often, if the ofWe scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age ^hen it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afilicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause cl the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the firs* step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and bo‘h need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.

VISIT TO ONE OF THE MILLS IN COLUMBIA DESCRIBED. “The sunset gleam had left the sky, The moon rose calm and fair, As low a little maiden knelt To breathe h«r nightly prayer; And thus her brief petition rose, In simple words and few, ‘Dear Lord, please send us blessed dreams, And fet them all come true.’ Oh! have stood In temples grand. tVIhere ’mid the twilight gloom, Rose' pompous prayer from priestly lips, Through clouds of dense perfume; But never one has seemed to me, So guileless, pure and new, As ’Dear Lord, please send us blessed dreams And let them all come true.’ Ah! little maiden kneeling there, Beneath the sunset skies, What need have we of other prayer, Than yours, so sweet and wise? Henceforth I’ll breathe no studied pleas, But bow and pray with you, ‘Dear Lord, please send us blessed dreams, v And let them all come true.’ ” Schoolteacher a Growing Giant.

People in the South Know Little o* the Daily Life in Textile anj Oil Mills. (The State, Sept. 22.) “There are some people living here in the best part of the great cotton producing belt of the world who have never seen a hale of cotton ginned, said a representative Columbia busi ness man yesterday. “Few people, in deed, excepting those directly or in directly interested, who know much more about the treatment of cotton, other than to see it in the fields and later wear it as a part of their rai ment. With South Carolina standing next to Massachusetts in the manu facture of cotton goods, and as a lead er in the manufacture of cotton seed products, there are thousands of peo ple who have lived here all their lives and have never seen the inside of a modern cotton mill, or of an oil mill. Nearly all of the visitors to these cotton mills prove to be visitors either from the North or from some State other than South Carolina. “Nothing can prove more instruct ive to any one than a visit to one of these mills. Take for instance, the modern oil mill. Here in Columbia there are three of the biggest and best oil mills in the South. At times they find it indeed difficult to get enough seed to supply their capacity. “No one need find time hanging heavily on his hands for want of something to see in a town where there is a cotton seed oil mill. And within the mill the visitor will stay even longer than he had expected, for the appetite-exciting smells of the cooking of the oils in the seed will make many linger, even those whom indigestion had long since caused to dislike the odors of copk- ing fats. I made a visit to one of these mills a few days ago and I was greatly Interested in the processes. It i€ marvelous when we think that a few years ago the cotton seed was an outcast and today It Is one of our most valuable products. “Even as a mere matter of process It is Interesting to know how this tiny seed I s treated, aside from the contemplation of the wonderful use fulness it has become. Every day new experiments with some one of the products of the cotton seed prove successful. At the mill visited a few days ago the season had Just opened. This mill has a capacity of handling 200 tones of seed a day, 24 hours’ run. “As the seed are received they are placed In a large central room. Here they are put on an endless conveyer which carries them to the Hnters. The lint that covers the seed after the ginning is removed. There are about 47 pounds of this lint to a ton of good seed. Even this by-product— the linter—is now used for making cotton hatting, mattresses, etc. “After the seed pass through the linting machines they are conveyed to the crushers. The kernel of the seed is mechanically taken out and the hulls are carried one way and the meaty little kernel another. The hulls are used as a forage feed for cows and stock. “Following the kerne] of the seed, they will he found in a sort of roller mill machine—similar to a wheat flour roller. Then they are put into a steamer and cooked thoroughly. From the cooker they are put—a lit tle at a time—into a powerful press. Th*- oil is thus pressed out through a thick cloth made of camel s hair and the hard cake Is left. “The oil Is put into large tanks and the cakes are ground up into the yel low meal or shipped in cakes for feed This big mill turns out dally f l’ r ing the season enough crude oil to fill a big railroad tank—about 8,000 gallons. “With the immense cotton produc tion this year—12,000,000 bales, there will he ginnotf about C.500,000 tons of cotton seed. From this amount it is estimated that 4.000,000 tons will he crushed, the remainder being need ed for seed next spring. With this amount of seed worked by the va rious oil mills the cotton seed pro ducts will net the South something like $00,000,000 this year, so I have learned since. ‘IThe uses to which cotton seed products are being put now astonish the map who a few years ago used the cotton seed as a fertilizer or threw the seed away, having no use for tr e» n at all. Recent experiments show tnat by feeding the meal and hulls to cattle and stock the cattle ion or more flesh than from any other feed and at the same time, the rna nurp left contains about 90 per cent, of the fertilizing values found in the original feed. The oils are refined and used for cooking oily and butter fats of every description, the fine r oils even rival ing the best imported olive oils. Soaps of rare delicacy are made from the dross taken from the refined oils. Some of the best doctors are now pre scribing cotton oil as a treatment for all stages of tuberculosis. I was also Informed at the mill that the meal will some day become a popular breakfast food when it Is combined w’th some other cereal. Well, won ders never cease.” Arrival 0 f Mall Tralna.

Atlanta. Sept 20.—Commiaaioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson and State Chemist John M. Met landless have just issued from the press “Fertilizer Bulletin No. 44,’’ which is declared by the officials at the State capitol who have seen it to be the most complete yet sent out by that departmenL There are 25,000 ^>n hand and they will he maNed to any one upon appli cation. The distinctive feature of this bul letin is the series of letters written by Dr. McCandless to “Georgia farm- <-rs.” In this third letter on the “sci ence of feeding’’ he uses as his topic, “Importance of cotton seed: how the progressive farmer may calculate the best rations for his stock,” he writes: “As I said, we have been raising cotton seed for the sake of its fiber, to be spun into cloth, when we should have been raising it chiefly for the sake of the protein and carbohydrates of its seeds, to he transmuted by wonderful alchemy of the brute cre ation into beef, milk, mutton and pork, with the lint simply thrown in as a by-product. When we consider the wonderful nutritive value of cot ton seed meal aud hulls, after the oil, another by-product, has been extract ed from them, and the further fact that this rich, nutritious food may he passed through the domestic animals, giving them life, growth and develop ment. and yet in that process lose only about 10 per cent, of the rich fertilizing constituents found in the original food and yielding a manure of the very best quality, it does seem as though nature had been too lavish and generous in her gifts to us of the South.” In addition, the bulletin gives the complete pure food law and the stan dard of pure food values as allowed under the law in Georgia and how registration shall be accomplished for the sale of these articles so as to comply with the State regulations.

Nearly three hundred years have passed since the medical, curative elements known to exist in the cod’s •Iver were first discovered and recog nized by physicians as a specific in the treatment of pulmonary and wast ing diseases, and as a body-builder am] strength creator; but how to ex tract those medicinal elements from the oil in which they were enveloped, has been the study of some of the most expert chemists in the world. Now, the process discovered by two eminent French chemists. Morgues and Gautier, should Interest every 1 person In Gaffney.' By an extractive concentrating process they discover ed a way to separate the tonic, body i building and cnratlvt? elements con- j talned in fresh cod’s livers from tlielr useless oil.
