Fruit Prospects.
Those who have examined their
trees are of the opinion that peaches
have not been materially hurt by the
cold weather. It is thought,- if no
freeze prevails in this section during
the month of April, that we will have
the largest crop of peaches for any
year during the last five.

The Old Gives Place to ihe New.
The old must make room for the
new and young. Old people die oat
and'the young occupy in their stead;
old houses are torn away that new
ones may fill their place. The old ho
tel, whioh has so long been a plague
spot on the northeastern corner of the
square, is now no more. It was built
in 1833-34 and was first run as a hotel
by Ned Montgomery. We suppose
Ned Montgomery now “sleeps the
sleepthat knows no waking,” and few
there be who can remember the said
Ned. About that time Alderman R.
E. Cobb visited this world and Ameri
cas and here he has lingered for nearly
a half century, the old town growing
dearer to .him every day. The old
hotel with all of its sins and pleasures,
its allurements and follies, and its
good and bad reminescences, is gone.
Its place will soon be filled by a fine
brick store with a commodious ware
house in the rear, which will proba
bly stand until every person in the
city is gone to other climes.

Easter Sunday.
We attended divine worship at'Cal
vary (Episcopal) Church last Sabbath
morning, and witnessed the beautiful
and impressive Easter services. The
Church was beautifully decorated
with a profusion of flowers, tastefully
arranged, the sacred desks being cov
ered with quite a variety of attractive
annuals; and conspicuously placed, on
a stand near by, was a waiter of ex
quisite roses. The font was one mass
of pure white flowers, capped by a
calla lily, the base gracefully entwined
with ivy. The altar just under the
large stained glass window, was bor
dered with white flowers, and in the
centre, a beautifully proportioned
cross, composed of white roses, ex
quisite in their purity. Mr. Uriah B.
Harrold, the Superintendent, called
the Sunday School to order, each class
bearing its banner, and to the music
of the organ, the children singing
marched up the aisle, and filed’ into
their respective places—after which
th. Easter offerings of each class were
presented, in little flower baskets,
amounting in all, to forty-five dollars.
The regular church service was then
held, Prof. John Neeley presiding.
He read a sermon, written by the
gifted and lamented Bishop Stephen
Elliott, appropriate to the day. One
of the pleasing incidents of the occa
oiuu, were r.TtMer uuiu &u . it __
congregation to Mr. Neely and Mrs.
Schumbert—a handsome prayer book
and Hymnal to the former for his zeal
and untiring attendance as lay reader;
to Mrs. Schuifipert a very chaste and
beautiful vase, containing choice flow
ers, in appreciation for valuable ser
vices as organist. The Church is very
ornamental, and the services impres
sive and attractive. We spent an
hour very pleasantly and profitably
in this little sanctuary.
Death of Mr. W. A. Hawkins.
This estimable old gentleman died
in this city at the residence ot his son,
Dr. S. B. Hawkins, on Monday after
noon, 26th inst., of old age. We do
not know his exact age, but believe
he was nearly ninety. He leaves two
children in this city—Dr. S. B. and
Col. W. A. Hawkins —and a large
number of grand and great-grand
chityiren. He was held in high esteem
by every one, for his highly moral
and pious life. A true Christian, he
exemplified a Christian life in deep
devotion and trust in God. His
remains were interred in Oak Grove
Cemetery on Tuesday afternoon, and
his immortal soul is enjoying the
bright realities of the heavenly king
dom.

COTTON SEED OIL.
Its Uses and Abuses—An Interesting
Talk with an Expert.
Meeting Mr. J. H. Butt, agent for
the Montgomery Oil Mills and Re
finery, at the Commercial, Saturday
night, our reporter embraced the op
portunity to ask him a few questions
concerning this industry. We found
Mr. Butts full of the theme, and think
his conversation will be of interest to
our readers.
Reporter—Mr. Butts, how much
will a ton of the seed yield?
Mr. Butts—That is a question I
have asked me every day. It depends
a great deal on the seed. Green seed
contain a great deal of water, and
the yield is hardly so great as old
and well matured seed. I suppose,
though, about a fair average yield to
the ton is twenty-two gallons—some
times more, often less.
Reporter—How much will this oil
bring in market?
Mr. Butts—The refined oil whole
sales at about sixty-two cents per gal
lon. The crude oil is worth about
forty-two cents.
Reporter—How much does a gallon
of the oil weigh?
Mr. Butts—A gallon of the refined
oil weighsseven and one-half pounds,
or about one-half pound less than the
same amount of filtered water.
Reporter—ls the oil subject tq much
evaporation ?
Mr. Butts—No, sir; of course there
is some evaporation, but compared to
some other oils, it is very slight.
Reporter—ls the refinery and the
oil mill all together?
Mr. Butts—No, indeed; the refiuery
is an entirely separate affair. It
would be impossible to refine the oil
where it is distilled.
Reporter—Mr. Butts, is it true that
the oil is used for olive oil—or rather,
as a substitute for it?
Mr. Butts—Why, sir, I carry a bot
tle of it with me all the time. Here
is'some of it now. It is much prefer
able to olive oil, from the fact that it
does not become rancid. Wherever
I find lettuce, I make me some salad
and eat it with great relish. You can
not detect any smell of cotton seed
about that, and you never saw olive
oil clearer. It is a swindle, it is true,
to bottle it up and sell it as olive oil,
but for this the refiners are not respon
sible. We sell the oil by the barrel,
and those who bottle and label it as
olive oil are the miscreants.
Reporter-—'This is indeed nice, and
I would enjoy your salad with you,
sir. I had no idea it could he refined
so nicely. But is there much of the
oil used for cooking purposes?
Mr. Butts—A great deal of it, and
it is gaining favor every day. It is
Uiucn oeuer mail any urn tne people
can buy—more cleanly and sweeter.
Why, sir, you might fry mackerel in
it, and in the same grease, cook your
beef-steak, and your steak would not
taste a particle of the fish. It is sim
ply prejudice that keeps people from
using it, and common-sense is fast
getting the upper hand in that respect.
If the people could go through a pack
ing establishment, they would never
want any more lard. Why, sir, every
particle of the oil is pressed out of the
stuff, and its place is supplied with
water and the crude cotton seed oil,
which they buy in large quantities.
The oil from the lard is used for lubri
cating and, as it is non-explosive,
miners use it for their lamps. It is
worth about seventy-five cents per
gallon. The crude cotton-seed oil is
much cheaper, and with this they
supply the place of the natural oil of
the lard. The oil within itself would
do well enough, for it is cleanly, but
the compressed mass before the addi
tion of the oil and water is worthless
and perfectly obnoxious, and making
the people pay such a price for it
is an unmitigated swindle, and should
be punished by law.
Reporter—l agree with you there,
sir. But the law-makers are to blame
as much at the men who perpetrate
the swindle, in my opinion. The
country is full of rascals who grow
rich off of the people, with their
adulterated articles of food and worth
less mixtures, but the men who make
our laws wink at it, and oftentimes
receive a share of their ill-gotten
gains. But does the cotton seed oil
contain any nutrition, and is the use
of it conducive to health?
Mr. Butts—Much more so than even
the pure hog’s lard—a thousand times
more so than the filthy mass sent out
by unscrupulous Western packers.
Why, sir, the negroes at our mills
have entirely quit buying pork, and
catch the crude oil in their buckets as
it runs out of the pipe to sop their
bread in, and they get so fat and lazy
that we have to change hands contin
ually.’
Reporter—That speaks well for tho
oil as a healthy article. But how
about cotton seed meal for stock ?
Mr. Butts—There is nothing better
to fatten stock, and there is a demand
for more than the mills can furnish.
But it is trnin time, and I must be on
the wing. Good-night, sir.
Reporter—Good-night, Mr. Butts,
and many thanks for your informa
tion.
Here tho interview closed, Mr.
Butts hastening to the train, and the
tired reporter seeking his couch, there
to pass away the night in dreams of
cotton-seed oil and—well, the public
would not be interested in our dreams,
and we prefer to keep them to our
selves, anyway.

How to Make Money Farming.
The and prosperous farmer
must make every edge cut—he must waste
no money. lie should calculate closely and
buy 1 lie cheapest. To buy cheap he must
have the cash. If he has not got the cash
then ho should get it. This he can do
through me if he is reliable and owns his
farm. I am still negotiating loans for farm
ers secured by mortgage on their farms.
These loans run from 3 to 5 years, and bear
only 8 per cent interest. It is the cheapest
way to borrow money. Of this I can con
vince any intelligent person. It will do no
harm to investigate my plan—it may save
you money—so come and see me and let mf.
