THE GREAT WEALTH
■WHICH LIES IN WHAT WE HERE
TOFORE HAVE WASTED.
Some Fact* and Figures Concerning the Value of
Cotton Seed In the Sew Use* in which
They Figure-New and Important
Industries for the Couth.
Atlakta, (la., January 31, 1882.—[Special
Correspondence.]—In respose to many in
quiries from parties wlio desire to investigate
tlie matter as to the cost of cotton seed mills
the probable profits and methods, I submit
the following:
My former letter covered all general points
of interest and I propose this morning merely
togivesueh details as I have gathered that
may lie useful to those intending to build
■and that answer the questions that have been
asked most frequently.
In order to give the best information upon
tb® subject 1 sought a gentleman in this city
who has been connected with cotton seed
mills for years, who is now engaged in selling
cotton seed oil, and who is vouched for as
authority on aiiy subject that he will give an
opinion on. He is careful, prudent, and
with all so modest that he forbids the use of
his name. In reply to my question as to
what would be the cost of a mill with a ca
pacity of one hundred barrels per day, he
said:
“That is a very large mill, and larger than
most of the inquiries that I have call for. A
mill with a capacity of fifty barrels a day is
what is usually wanted. Such a mill com
pletely equipped would cost about thirty
thousand dolhirs. This would give four
presses and twenty-four boxes, and would
have a capacity of fifty barrels of oil per day."
"\V hat makes the machinery so expen
sive?"
“In the first place the machinery is most of
It built expressly for the purpose. The liy-
druulic presses which are used are the most
expensive part of the outfit. A great deal of
ground and sheds arc needed in order to keep
the seed tVry, and these must be fitted with
elevators m which the seed is passed from
one room to the other occasionally so that it
will get an airing und prevent heating or fer
mentation. This rathe first process in making
oil. The seed having been uired and put in
right condition for the mill they
arc then passed to the linters.
This is a very important process, as an average
of three per cent of lint is taken from the
seed right here. This lint, amounting to sixty
jiounds to every ton of seed, is sold for bat
ting and the average price obtained for it this
year was cents, making about four dollars
worth of lint taken .from every ton of seed.
After the seed leaves the linters it is then put
in the hulling machine. The hulls, when
taken off, are used as fuel. The hull furnishes
more fuel thuti is necessary to work the seed.
The residue of the burned hulls is called cot
ton ash and contains 10 per cent of pure
potash, and lias an immediate commercial and
fertilizing value. The bulk of the seeds, after
being hulled, are rolled over a scriesof rollers
that press them into a flat substance without
expressing any of the oil. This is then put
into hair cloth boxes which an; themselves
very expensive, and put in boilers. They arc
not put in water hut ure subjected to steam
boiling, and after having been properly boiled
are then put in the press and iheoil is ex
pressed."
‘This is the crude oil,'is it not?”
“Yes. sir, and the process of refining is en
tirely distinct from the seed oil mill. The
refinery is a distinct establishment calling for
a distinct set of machinery for a distinct pro
cess and is usuully under another manage
ment. T* is no more connected with a cotton
seed mill than a cotton factory is connected
with a gin.”
“Tiie machinery and outfit will cost $30,000
you say?”
“Yes, and you can see where the money
will go to by running over the account of the
process required.”
"Where can this machinery lie bought?”
“It can he bought piecemeal from various
machine works mat make it, or it can he or
dered in hulk from jiersons who are prepared
to fill such orders. There are two or three
such places in t lie United States, all of which
are reliable and have frequently filled orders
for mills. They understand where the best
machinery am be bought anil the best com
binations ntn«\e.”
“What working capital would it require in
uddilion to the $30,000?”
“That depends upon circumstances. If a
■company is properly organized and has suffi
cient credit very little would he needed, but it
would be best to put aside about $20,000 as a
.working capital, making an outlay of $50,000
for a fifty barred mill. You see the work is
all done in the winter, anil it is necessary to
have the capital to command the mate
rial in sufficient quantity whenever it is
wanted to run the mill for the entire six
.months."
"What arc the profits of the business?”
“I am not willing to state. Indeed it would
be very hard to state definitely what the
profit ’would be Under any given circum
stances, there are so many contingencies.
This season it happens that all the products
of the mills—the cotton ash, the cotton meal,
the lint and the oil qre in demand, and bring
high prices, consequently the mills have
made a great deal of money. Other years
hive not been so fortunate. It Ls lair to say
however that the southern mills have been
prosperous to a very great degree, and the re
sults achieved have been such as to induce the
building of new mills with great rapidity.
There were fourteen new mills put up in the
J>nth laat vear. A significant fac: is that
three of thc'new mills were put up at Mem
»his where four were already running, and
t hen; information on the subject was the
idlest Without going into details, I will
I v t bat there are few investments that will
jay better than this if it is properly ntun-
i “Will the increase be very rapid in the
Undoubtedly. There are two charters for
itills in Atlanta. Companies stand behind
emh readv and anxious to build. Two will be
lailt as soon as it is thought that enough seed
an he procured to justify two mills in start-
Tl» the having of seed a great trouble? * _
'•That is 'the only trouble, and that i
kllv the first point that any one
aut to build should investigate.
, should he certain that he can get a suffi-
fent supply of seed delivered at the point at
Ihich his mill is to lie located. There is less
on hie now about gettingseed than formerly,
i the price has risen to about htteen cents a
lushel. When the price was ten cents to
twelve cents, the farmers did not care to sell
iut used it on their farms or wasted it. At ht-
en cents it pa vs the farmer to look alter it and
. that it is delivered at some null and sold,
it, is my opinion that in a few years everv
available point in the south will be occupied
bv a cotton seal oil mill, and that the bulk of
flie crop will be utilized.”
•You find no trouble about the sale of the
. “None whatever. When we first started
this trouble was in|our;way; we had to nnx
our oil with linseed and other oils in order to
■sell it anil wc were afraid to say that it was
fcotton seed oil that we were oftcring. Now
I all that is changed and the cotton seed oil has
demonstrated its purity, efficiency and value,
and the mills could sell at profitable figures
very much more than they produce, T might
sav'an indefinite amount.”
•‘Is it being used much for domestic pur-
**^”Ye9, very much more than we had hoped.
We get inquiries every day concerning it
from all parts of the country'and the interest
is very general. Parties will naturally
prefer it to hog’s lRrd if itcan be demonstrated
that it will take its place. This it does when
ever it gets a chance We sent out several
hundred boxes as samples when we first
started. The grocers would not touch it at
all. The demand for it from families wlio
have tried it is now leading them to take
hold of it, and there is no question
but that it _ will shortly supersede
lard almost entirely. It is cleaner, cheaper
and better. Mr. Barnett, who is a prudent
and experienced man, tried it and writes that
he has used it in beat biscuit, and that it is
simply impossible for any one to detect it,
even if his attention has been called to it. I
suppose no more delicate test could
be given than with beat biscuit.” [I
may stop here to mention that it is said that
Mr. Barnett is so susceptible to poorly cooked
food that he has claimed that he is able when
lying on his back anil suffering from dyspepsia
to tell exactly how many licks are put upon
beat biscuit, claiming that 931 stout blows are
necessary to bring a heat biscuit to full > per
fection.] “This testimony is that of almost
every one who has tried it.”
“Jioes the me il sell as rapidly as the oil ?”
“Yes, the meal is undoubtedly the best
cattle food in the world. The chemist of the
German government having been ordered to
make an analvsis of the leading
stock foods and give the nutritive
qualities of each, made the following
report: Taking oat meal as a standard of 100
he reported that corn meal was 113, pea meal
130, and cotton seed meal 170. The American
dairy association made a report upon this
subject, and declared that one bushel of cot
ton seed meal w ould produce as much milk
as two bushels of any other food they
had tried. The products of the' cotton seed
are new and they have been required to make
their way against prejudice, to supersede
established articles of commerce and of com
mon use. They have therefore had to
move slowly, hut they have moved
none the less surely. Their su
perior quality is now confessed on
all sides and the future is plain sailing.
There is no doubt in my mind, and I am not
an enthusiastic man, and have studied the
question very closely, that in a few years we
shall have cotton mills at every available
point in the south and 'that the
bulk of the seed of the cotton
crop shall be made luerchaniauie
as cotton ash. lint, meal and oil. and that the
oil produced from the seed shall be refined so
that it will command a high price and com
mend itself to domestic use. In this way we
shall add millions to the value of our staple
crop, and establish two important industries
in the south iu addition to what we have
already."
After securing these facts I sought Mr.
Albert Thornton,who is now engaged in pur
chasing the machinery for a new cotton seed
oil mill to be established in Atlanta, and
who before determining upon this investment
made careful investigations as to the proba
ble profit. I give what he says:
“The cost of our mill will he about thirty-
five thousand dollars; this includes the very
best of machinery that is for sale. Cheap
machinery could be lmd for less. The capacity
of this mill will be twenty barrels for every
ten hours. In estimating the capacity of
machinery, however, makers usually consider
a day as twenty-three hours, running night
and day. The capacity of our machinery on
this basis would he fifty barrels per day.”’
•What working capital will you use?”
‘I should say probably ten thousand dol
lars. This added to the" cost of our machin
ery would make $15,000—say an investment
of $50,000.”
“Now. what profits do you expect?
“It is hard to say definitely, hut I have no

liesit tion in giving you the figures that have
induced us to buy. Sixty bushels of cotton
seed make a ton. The price now is from ti n
to twelve cents, but I estimate to lay them
down at our mill at20 cents, as the price will
advance. On this basis a ton of seed will
cost say $12. Now for the product. We will
get thirty-live gallonsof oil which now sells at
40 cents a gallon. I think the price of this will
advance with the price of cotton seed,
and with its general introduction, but at
present prices the 35 gallons of oil which a
ton of seed would yield would give us $14 for
the oil. Then wo get, say 25 pounds of lint
saved from the seal. Many put this at sixty
pounds, but with the improved gins now
used, there is not so much left on the seed.
This lint sells at six mid a-half cents a pound,
would give us say a dollar anil sixty cents.
Then we have D00 pounds of cotton cake
worth a dollar and a quarter. The hulls are
used for fuel, and the pot ash in each ton of
the ashes is worth say 30 cents. This makes
the total product for a ton of seed which cost
$i2 wortli about $17.15, or a press profit of
about five dollars a ton; as the mill will work
twenty tons by running tens hours a day,
this would be a profit of one hundred dollars
for the day’s work. The cost of niakin;
this would be $15 ;n day for labor,
including a superintendent, a book-keeper, a
skilled workman anil six common laborers.
Fuel would be' provided by the hulls of the
seed. The interest on the investment would
be say, ten dollars a working day. For inci
dentals ten dollars a day, and for wear and
tear of machinery say, ten dollars a day. Tiiis
makes a total cost of $15 per day, or, to put it
in round figures, $50 a day on a gross profit ol
$100 a day. This would give us a return of
about 30 per cent on our investment above
the interest of eight percent, which is charged
up in expenses. These are the general figures
upon which we have determined to go into
the business.”
“If thes® figures are correct, why is it that
more cotton seed oil mills are not beinj
built?”
“Simply because the business has just beet,
establsihe'd. The growth in cotton seed oil
mills has been wonderful, and in my opinion
lias just fairly started. Another thing that
has retarded the development of this interesi
is the difficulty of gettingseed. That is the
one point that bothers us now, but I believ
we can get enougli to run us. I have several
letters now from parties wanting to buy seed
for us, and guaranteeing to sell us at less than
fifteen cents a bushel. Under the system ol
custom gins which is now being established
it is easier to buy seed than before. Most of
the cotton seed accumulating at these gins
belongs to tenants, who would sellitatalmost
any price rather than haul it back to their
farms. Mr. Sykes, of Hogansville, tells me
tnat lie could have sold me 25 000 bushel
of cotton seed last year at 10
cents a bushel. I believe that
wc can get all that we need. Of course I am
interested in no way in getting i«;-*pl« to
build seed oil mills, as I am going into the
business myself, my interests would naturally
be the other way. I simply desire to give an
answer to your questions and to scores of let
ters that have been wriiteu me making inqui
ries similar to those you have received. J
don’t know that the figures I have given you
can be realized by any one else. I don’t
know that we will realize them. I simply
know that they are in general terms the basis
on which we have determined to make an in
vestment of about $50,000."
The above answers all the questions that
can think of in connection with this subject.
What I have written has been with a view of
presenting in' general terms the figures
of cost and profit in an industry that must
prove of vast benefit to the south if developed,
and 1 believe profitable to those engaged in it.
Of course no business mail should make any
venture involving an outlay of $50,000 with
out personally investigating the details for
himself and acting on his own judgement.
If what has been written will serve to simply
call the attention of people having money to
invest to this industry that promises so much
all the purposes for which it has been written
will have been fully met. H. \V. G
