■Remarkable Growth of a Sew Indus,
try.
A history of the cottonseed-oil in¬
dustry of the south was one of the
principal featueres of a recent issue of
the Manufacturers’ Becord of Balti¬
more, and we extract therefrom the
following particulars:
“In 1880 there were forty cotton¬
seed mills, with an aggregate capital
of $3,500,000. There are now 300
mills, having a combined capital of
about $30,000,000. At present about
1,500,000 tons of seed are annually
used by the mills, yielding to the
farmers about $18,000,000 a year
for a product which, until re¬
cently, was regarded as a waste
material. The total output is about
1,500,000 barrels, or 60,000,000 gal¬
lons of oil, 500,000 tons of cottonseed
meal, 750,000 tons of hulls and 30
000,000 pounds of linters, the aggre¬
gate value of which will average about
$30,000,000. The demand for oil
is steadily expanding, and only about
one-third of the total cottonseed crop
is now consumed by the mills, there is
practically unlimited room for the
growth of this business. Ten years
ago the hulls were burned by the mills
as a fuel as no other use could be
found for them. Investigation prov¬
ed that they made excellent fodder, and
last year about 400,000 head of cattlo
were fattened for the market on cot¬
ton-seed hulls, while 100,000 mileh
cows were fed on the same material. ”
Much of the cotton oil is consumed
iu the shape of salad oil, the article
making an excellent substitute for
olive oil. Purchasing the salad oil
that bears foreign labels will not al¬
ways insure the consumer against be¬
ing deceived, as large quantities of the
cotton oil are annually exported to
Italy and Prance, there to be mixed
with olive oil and labeled as the pure
* product.
A Potato Preserving Process.
To avoid the germinating or “sprout¬
ing” of stored potatoes, M. Sehribaux
has devised the plan of immersing
them for ten or twelve hours in water,
to which has been added from one to
two per cent of commercial sulphuric
acid, then rinsing and drying. The
skin of the potato protects the interior
from the action of the acid, while the
delicate germs in the eye are destroy¬
ed. The process seems to have proven
highly satisfactory. In the caso of a
few specimens of Richter’s Imperatof
potato a remarkable result has been
noticed, tho treated buds Laving been
made incapable of developing exter¬
nally, but retaining sufficient vitality
to cause them in the course of time to
become transformed into small pota¬
toes inside of the original tuber. The
exhausted parent patatoes containing
their plump progeny formed a curious
exhibit at a recent meeting of the Bo¬
tanical Society of France.— Ex.
Artificial Ice.
In the manufacture of artificial ice
one ton of coal is required to produce
from five to ten tons of ice, according
to the quality of the machine used.
Very little waste occurs and tho artifi¬
cial is made more cheaply than the or¬
dinary lake or river ice can be harvest
. pd and stored. Artifieial ice is praeti- (
call free from impurities.
The present condition of tho times

GEORGIA IX BRIEF.
NEWSY ITEMS GATHERED HERE
AND THERE OYER THE STATE
And Condensed Into Pithy and Inter¬
esting Paragraphs.
Hon. D. A. Bussell has been ap¬
pointed by the governor judge of the
newly established city court of Deca¬
tur couuty.
Tlie governor has appointed Hon.
James A. Hixon to be judge of the
county court of Sumter county to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Judge J. C. Matthews.
On the 1st of May, in Laurens
county, the residence and property of
Peter P. Thompson was destroyed by
fire. The governor offers a reward of
$100 for the discovery of the incen¬
diaries.
The new telephone lino to Douglas
ville in course of construction by the
Atlanta Tt.ephone Exchange, has al¬
ready reached Austell and Lithia
Springs, aud the line has been opened
for business between Atlanta and those
points.
* * *
Governor Northen has offered a re¬
ward of $200 for the arrest, with proof
to convict, of the persou or persons
who attempted to blow np the homes
of W. C. XVall and J. H. Eakes, in At¬
lanta, with a dynamite bomb. This
sum, in addition to $ 1,000 already of¬
fered, ought to inspire somebody to
unravel that mystery.
A pardon bas been granted to Frank
McLendon, who, iu 1892, was sent to
the penitentiary under a nine years’
sentence on a charge of assault with
intent to murder. The request for his
pa.-don was a very strougouo. Among
those joining in it were the judge aud
solicitor who tried him nml all tho
members of the jury.
A reconciliation between the discord¬
ant elements of the Marietta aud
North Georgia railroad has been es¬
tablished aud all differences will soon
be. settled. Upon the motion on tbo
part of the reorganization to remove
Glover a decisive ruling has never been
made by Judge Newman. Aueut this,
it is said that a compromise will bo
effected appointing Elias Summerfield
as receiver.
The Polk County Farmers’ Mutual
Insurance Association lias been organ¬
ized with about $140,000 of stock, and
this shows tho very unusual interest
manifested by tho farmers. Many of
the best farmers of Polk were preseut
and participated in the organization.
They were representative men and tho
association certainly starts out with a
splendid beginning anil nu excellent
prospect for permanent benefit.
’?w days ago the supreme court
ianta handed down a decision in
case of Dr. Hinkle..of Ajueri.uie,
who was convicted and sentenced to
life imprisonment for the murder of
Dr. Worsham. The lower court had
sentenced him to life imprisonment on
the evidence that was adduced on trial,
and tho supreme eourt, after sifting
the case, decides that the lower court
has not erred. The decision was af¬
firmed.
An Interesting Order.
One of the most interesting orders
which has beeu passed in the executive
department in a long time is that pro¬
viding for the payment of the interest
ou the Northeastern railroad bonds.
The fact that tho Northeastern in the
hands of the state should bo aide to
meet these obligations certainly re¬
flects great credit upon the governor
and his agent, Mr. B. K. Reaves. The
governor cites in his order that he is
informed by R. Iv. Reaves, the ntate’s
agent, that the earnings of the rail¬
road property have amounted to $9,-
100 , which he says is sufficient to pay
the coupons due in November, 1893.
He, therefore, orders that an adver¬
tisement be inserted in a newspaper in
Athens, one in Atlanta and one in New
York, setting forth that tho coupons
will bo paid on presentation to the
Bank of the University at Athens, and
he orders that bank to pay the con
lions when they shall be presented.
Only Half a Crop.
The report of the weather depart¬
ment for the past week shows no im¬
provement in the condition or prospect
of Georgia crops. The memorable
cold snap several weeks ago played sad
havoc with cotton and corn, but
it was thought that warmer weather
w'ould follow and that everything
would take on new life. Instead
of improving, however, each day
tbe prospects have grown gloomier and
Officer Morrill declares that, so far as
he can ascertain, one-half of the cot¬
ton crop has been killed. The past
weekHias shown only a partial return
to normal conditions of temperature.
There have been pretty, warm days,
but the nights have been cold, so that
the average has been from 3 to 5 de¬
grees below the seasonal normal The
only exception is in the coast districts,
where nearly normal temperatures have
prevailed. Lave In rainfall the conditions
been more unfavorable. Over a
large portion of the state there has
been no rain, the exception being in
the northwest, where a few scattered
showers have fallen.
Homes and Farms In Georgia.
A census table of statistics, giving
the number and percenage of families
in Georgia by counties and cities, oc
cupying owned, hired, free and incurn
bered farms and homes will be soon
given publicity. The table shows that
in this state 175,688 families own or
hire farms. Of these 71,116 families
own free farms, 2,491 own incumbered
, arm8j an q 102,081 families hire their
farms. , This makes , 40.88 , per cent , of ,
otir farms occupied by their owners
nnineumbered. In Atlanta 13,315
families occupy homes, 2,788
* re fre e “ d “ rP *.“*
cumbered. a , There are 10,306 families .
hiring homes. The incumbered homes
of Atlanta are only 7.37 per cent of the
wfecle catcher, Of Georgia eltiee Au- of
e*•»:-» h«* th« U8»*4«et reflect***
incumbered Louies occupied by tbeir
owners, it being only 2.04 per cent v
The \i hole table deserves close study,
and it lends to the conclusion that the
farmers and home owners of Georgia,
in town and country, nre very com¬
fortably situated. They certainly make
a far better showing than the people
of the western states.
Aluminum in Georgia.
A wealthy northern company has be¬
come interested iu Georgia property,
northern capital has commenced to
flow into the state through an entirely
new channel and new and valuable
mining beds in the northern part of
the state are being developed. A short
time ago Mr. Bunnette, of the Fidel¬
ity Banking and Trust company, of
Atlnutn, scut some samples of tho
bauxite found iu northern Georgia to
Captaiu Hunt, the president of the
Pittsburg, Pa., Seduction company,
which company Mr. Bunnette is also
interested in. Captain Hunt bad
the samples analyzed and found
that they contained a very
large per cent of alumina, from
which the new and valuable metal al¬
uminum is made. After a thorough
investigation Captain Hunt and E. M.
Ferguson, president of the Merchants’
ami Manufacturers’ bank of Pittsburg,
came down to personally view the field.
As a result they have purchased valua¬
ble bauxite lands in Floyd, Bartow and
Polk counties and have established
headquarters at Borne with tho First
National bank of Borne as their depos¬
itory. The principal factory of tho
company is tit New Kensington, near
Pittsburg', and another will bo built at
Niagara Falls.

TRADE NOTES.
Business of the Past Week as Re¬
viewed by Dun & Co.
B. G. Dun k Co.’s review of trade
for tho post week says: “The outlook
for business seems a little better ou
the whole, though the change is not
great. Moreover, it is impossible to
distinguish between tho mere replace¬
ment or orders canceled for wont of
fuel or other causes, and the new bus¬
iness for which works nre anxiously
looking. That cancellations have been
heavy is certain, and it is not entirely
clear that orders of equal magnitude
have gone to other works that are able to
fill them. Through the agency of strikes
the interruption of industry and com¬
merce increases every week. Hence, it
is somewhat encouraging that tho de¬
crease in payments through clearing
houses is but 24.8 per cent for the first
week of June, 27.2 at New York, but
only 19.4 elsewhere. Tho decrease in
comparison with 181)2 is about Dll per
cent. With only 2,987 cokeoveu work¬
ing and 14,670 idle, with the Cambria
discharging half its force, seven out of
nine of the Carnegie furnaces at ltosse
mer out of blast, the prod nation aud
manufacture of iron and stool are
smaller than at any other time for
years. While it is believed that de¬
ferred work will cause heavy produc¬
tion after tho strike terminates, the
demand for product is at present much
below general expectation even at the
east. Other industries have boon less
affected, but many of textile mills,
even in New England, have now
been closed for lack of fuel or of or¬
ders, besides other concerns in great
numbers between the Atlantic and tho
Mississippi river.
“The market for goods is dull and
weak, with further reductions in price,
and stocks visible accumulating. The
1 >unks hero continue to receive from
tho interior about as much money as
thov lose bv md.l exports though tho
Customs receipts are again 3(1 per
cent, less than a year ago, and inter
mil revenue 29 per cent, less for tho

TO EXECUTE HIMSELF.
Cronin Wilt Hang on a New anil Im
proveil Gallows.
A dispatch from Hartford, Conn.,
says; Warden Woodliridgo, of tho
Connecticut state prison, Iihh placed in
tho new execution house an improved
gallows, by which a condemned man
becomes his own executioner. Ity
stepping on the drop he starts a flow
of water. The weight of the water
finally releases the spring which holds
the drop. Jack Cronin has been sen¬
tenced to die br this machine on An¬

d of oh ltlvHi Dr. A. W. Tracy,
pregident ^ of W(l , presented his
itten prot 1 esGagai„st the hanging of
Cronin by Wardtan Woodbritlgo’H now
contrivance. Dr. Tracy argues that it
1H jjiogai, because the law cannot com
j )0 j a mau to be his own executioner or
„ BU ioi<li). The law, ho says, requires
that an officer charged with executing
t lio sentence shall perform his duty
and not shift any part of it to the
vic tim.

Do You Wish
the Finest Bread
and Cake?
It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder ift
the purest and strongest of all the baking powders.
The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet¬
est, most delicious food. The strongest baking pow
der makes the lightest food.
That baking powder which is both purest and
strongest makes the most digestible and wholesome
food.
Why should not every housekeeper avail herself
of the baking powder which will give her the best
food with the least trouble?
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift
or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal,
as they invariably contain alum, lime or sul¬
phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.
Certain protection from alum baking powders can
be had by declining to accept any substitute for the
Royal, which is absolutely pure.
