In this my first talk with the farm

gratulate them on the present pros

According, to the Comptroller-Gen

shows an Increase of 140,000,00 over

was quite common, Is now unheard of.
It is my opinion, hoxvever, that in
requiring that the matter of safety
be paramount, the Illuminating quality
of the oil may have been Impaired.
The oil refined to tne point where it
will pass the Georgia test must neces

larger percentage of naptha and other

light with a maximum uf danger, or
one not so bright xvlth a minimum of

the law above referred to, and it is

COOKING OIL
SALAD OIL
Pure Deodorized Cotton Seed Oil
Is a wholesome vegetable product. When properly
used is better than butter at one-fourth the cost.
For cooking either bread or meats is far superior
to lard at one-half the cost.
If used for salads is equal to olive oil and only
costs half ii« much.
This store sells WESSON COOKING and SALAD
OILS, manufactured by the Southern Oottton Oil Co.
These refined products of cotton seed are all that is
claimed for them by the manufacturers. They have
been tested by thousands of housekeepers and have
never failed to meet all requirements and expectations.
