[BT the dihector.]
In response to several inquiries as to
the terms on which a farmer can afford
Ho exchange las cotton seed lor cotton
«iteal the loliowiiig general and com
prehensive article has been prepared:
It is well for the farmer to under
stand the actual and relative and com
tnercial values of whole cotton seed
and cotton meal, botu for food and for
fertilizing purposes. According to the
best authorities the following are the
fertilizing conteuts of one ton each of
cotton seed and cotton meal; and the
commercial value of one ton of each,
based on a valuation of 15 cents per
ponnd of nitrogen, a cents per pound
of available phosphoric acid and 5 cents
per pound or potash:
In one ton of cotton seed there are 61
pounds of nitrogen, 20 pdunds of phos
phoric acid, 28 pounds of patash; the
value of one ton is $11.40, the value of
100 pounds is o'i cents.
In one ton of cottou meal there are
1-13 pounds of nitorgen, 50 pounds of
•phosphoric acid, 80 pounds of potash,
eho value o:' one ton is $35. 84; the value
<uf 100 pounds is $1.39.
By an eaty calculation we find that
one ton of cotton seed is equal iu fer-
fiiiziug value to 880 pounds of cotton
weed me a'. This estimate laces no ac
count ot tiio superior mechanical con
dition of the meal, nor its greater con-
ceutratiou, which involve loss labor in
hauling, mixing, etc., and greater
promptness of action when applied to
•the soil as a ertll zar. The calculation
ns based solely on the contents of fertil
izing elements in the seotl and meal
•respectively, as shown by many analy
ses. The advantages of this superior
mechanical condition and concentra
tion are certainly worth soraetning to
to ihe farmer, in addition to tnese
advantages the cotton meal is iu butter
condition lor feeding to tuilcli cows
sand other cattle. Suppose wo grant
that these advantages are together
equivalent to 10 per cent of the value
oi the meal. Tneil deduct 10 per
cent from 88) and we have 880 less
88 iquas 793 pounds of meal as the j
approximate fertilizing equivalent of
•one tail o' cottonseed In round num
bers we will call it 800 pounds. Then
we have 890 pouuds of meal, equivalent
to 3,000 pounds, or one ton, of cotton
*eod, the exchauge to be made without
«xponse of hauling to the farmer. It
seems then quite clear that a farmer
cannot afford to exchange one ton of
cottonseed lor less than 800 pounds of
meal, free of the expense of hauling.
With these simple data it should bo in
the power of any farmer to decide for
ffiimself whether a given offer would
fbe reasonable or profitable for him.
"Valuing cotton seed meal at $30 per
tou, the farmer would have a margin
•of $3 to cover hauling expenses when
the mill man offers him 1,000 pounds
•of meal in exchange for one tou of
(seed. How far can ho afford to haul
•one ton of seed toward the mill and
2,000 pouuds of moal to his farm. We
learn that some of the mills are offer
ing just the exchange above suggested,
■viz: 1,000 pouuds of meal in exchange
Jfor one ton of seed, the mill to pay
railroad freight on tho seed and the
farmer the freight on tho meal.
1 understand that the mills at pres
ent proler to buy tho seed for tho cash
and store away the meal for future con
sideration (and higher prices?) 1 have
heard that the oil mill combine has
:.adopted $7 per ton as the maximum
'price to bo paid, for seed until further
•orders; and I have not heard of higher
•offers than 30 cents per 100 pounds, or
'§8 per ton. But 1 have previously
shown that for manuring purposes cot-
iton seed are worth 57 cents per 100
grounds, or $11.10 per ton. It is mani
fest, therefore, that $6, ner even $7, is
at fair cash price for a ton of cottou
seed. Now, if the oil mill will make a
corresponding reduction in the prioe of
meal and the farmer shall avail himself
of the same at once, no harm will be
done. It makes little difference how
email the price offered for cotton seed
if the farmer can get the meal at a cor
responding price. At $6 per ton for
cotton seed the farmer should not bo
required to pay more than $15 per ton
for meal—the mill paying for hauling
and delivery, both ways.
But should not the farmer receive
some part of the value of the oil that is
expressed from the seed sold? Cer
tainly, we would say, unless it be true
that the expenses of the mill plant, tho
•operating expenses and the exegencies
and uncertainties ot the trade—to
which should be added a fair percent-
»ge tor profit jn capital invested—shall
fequire the Tull Value or tile on ex
tracted and the value of tne remaining
by-products-the hulls and lmtors. We
learn that one ton of seed yields tho
following products: ^ ponnd>
,ii ;i:i gallons or 250 pounds
V, y, 978 pounds
T 1 t rs ........ :... 20 pounds
The 33 gallons of oil, at 17 cents $5.01
The 978 lbs. hulls, at r3 per ton.......
The 20 lbs. linters, at 3 cents per lb.. hd
Total, exclusive of the meal... $7 68
If tho mill man gives the farmer 80s)
pounds of meal for one ton of cotton
seed (only 50 pounds more than the ton
of seed contains) he still has marketa
ble products to the amount of $7.68,
less the value of 50 pounds of meal, or
about $7.30. Out of this margin of
$7.30, net products of each ton of seed,
how much will be required to pay mill
expenses, interest, wear and tear, profit
on oapital, eto? We are not prepared
to say, but it seems a good wide mar
gin, and that the farmer should have
at least the value of 400 pouuds of
meal, or say $3 worth, which would
leave $4 30 per ton to the mill out of
which to pay the above recited charges.
This would be equivalent to a basis of
exchange of 1,200 pounds of meal for
2,000 pounds of seed, freights to be
paid both ways by the farmer.
The oil contained in the seed ia prac
tically worthless as a fertilizer, as it
contains no element that is of value as
plantfood. But it is a valuable ingre-
ent in a food for cattle, and when re
fined it is almost exclusively used as a
substitute for olive oil and in the man
ufacture of lard and imitation butter.
The fertilizing elements contained in
cotton hulls, valued at the same prices
per pound as used above, wonld make
these worth about $3.55 per ton as a
fertilizer.
But, in fact, the hulls are so slowly
available that a farmer could not afford
to give that rice for them as a fertil
izer. He could afford, however, to pay
that prioe, or even more, if to be used
as a cattle food. According to chemi
cal analysis, cotton hulls oontain about
the same amount of nutriment, per
ton, as are contained in clean, dry oat
straw; bat the hulls have considerably
the advantage in being in a much finer
mechanical condition. [See reply to

ANSWERS TO INQUIRIES.
[Under this head short inquiries from
farmers on practical farm topics will be
answered by one of the Station staff and
published, if of general interest, other
wise the answers will be sent by mail.
Make your inquiries short and to tho
point, always give your name and post-
olliee and address to the “Director Geor
gia Experiment Station, Experiment,
Gn.’’i
Colton Me.l and Hulls as Cattle Food.
J. W. Smith Sc Co., Brunswick, Ga.:
Can you give us any information as to the
effect of feeding cotton meal and hulls to
cattle—whether tho tendency is to fatten
them? Are they injurious, and how long
before such effects would be noticeable?
[Answered by the Director.]
In reply 1 send you a copy of Bulle
tiu No. 21, which contains the roportof
an experiment in feeding hulls. There
is now no question as to tho value and
wholosomeness of cotton seed meal,
when fed within reasonable limits,
whether for producing milk and but
ter, or for beef. Five or six pouuds of
cottou meal per day, or even more,
may bo fed to a bee: animal without
any danger; but tho butter will be iu
jured in quality if more than 3 or 4
pounds per day are fed to a cow. lie
cent feeding experiments at some of
the Experiment Stations indicate that
long continued feeding of cotton meal
tends to impair the digestive powers of
a cow, especially when no other grain
is fed in connection with tho meal
it wonld be well, therefore, to use
an equal quantity of wheat bran, or
mixture of bran and corn meal with
the cotton meal, and occasionally leave
off the cotton meal entirely for a week
er two. The following is an outline
of tne experiment alluded to tho details
of which will be found in Bulletin No.
21, a copy of which will be sent to any
one on application:
The object of the following export
meat was to test tho relative food
value of sorghum ensilage and cotton
seed hulls as ingredients of a daily ra
tiou for milch cows. Two formulas
were constructed as follows:
RATION 1.
lbs
Sorghum ensilage 30
Wheat bran
C. S. meal
Timothy hay
RATION 2.
lbs,
C. S. hulls
Wheat bran R
C. S. meal
Timothy..
The only difference between tho two
formulas consisted in substituting, iu
Ration 2, ten pounds of cotton seed
hulls (all the cows would cat) in place
of tho thirty pounds of sorghum en
silage iu Ration 1. Eight oows were
selected for the experiment, and were
fed one week cu the same ration, as
preliminary to the eight days’ test
which was to follow. The cows were
also weighed at tho conclusion of the
preliminary test, and thoir milk tested
for butter tats with a Babcock tester.
Tho folio wing is the record:
The eight cows fed one week on Ra
tion No. 1 gained in weight 6 pounds.
The eight cows fed during the same
week on Ration No. 2, lost in weight
38 pouuds.
The eight cows fed for one week on
Ration No. 1 gave 1,188 pounds of
milk. The eight cows fed for tho same
time on Ration No. 2 gave 1,047 pounds
of milk. The difference iu weight of
ntiik produced in favor of No. 1, was
141 pounds, or 16 1-2 gallons. The ex
periment indicates that 10 pounds of
cotton seed halls aro not equivalent to
30 pounds of Sorghum ensilage. In
the next experiment a direct com
parison was made between cotton halls
and corn ensilage.
The scheme of the experiment was
this: Two lots of four cows each were
selected. The first lot was to be fed on
corn ensilage alone, Bnd the second lot
on cotton seed halls alone; for 8 days.
The lots were then to bo transposed,
the second lot to be fed on ensilage and
the first lot on hulls. Bnt the experl-

A STORY FROM CAYUGA C0. f N. Y.
Bliai Prnnrll, of Nlln, If. Y., Tell* of m
Miracle of tho Nineteenth
Century.
(From tho Cayuga Co., TV. Y., Independent.)
Hearing through Messrs. Allen A Burch,
druggists of Niles, that Mr. Silas Z. Pen
nell, a respected citizen of that town had
been cured of a bad cate of sciatic rheuma
tism by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
for Pale People, the editor of the Cayuga
County Independent determined to know
the truth of the matter and went out to
Niles. Mr. Pennell is a fanner and has a
■eat and comfortable home near Niles. We
asked Mr. Pennell if it was true that he had
been cured of a bad caso of rheumatism by
Dr. W'illiams' Pink Pills. He said that
three years ago in Angus! 1891, he was
seised with severe paine in the hip, just
where the eciatie aerve is, which gradually
ran down hie leg making life a misery to
him bnt not preventing him from doing
some work on the farm. Soon alter he was
loading hay when he slipped off the load
and hit hie hip on the wheel. After thie
he was worse, suffering great agony, and
for some time was unable to do any work.
He took such medicines as his physician
prescribed and improved somewhat so that
he could help somo areuud the farm again.
About Thanksgiving time ho was helpingto
put away some barrels of eider whioh he had
made, when he strained himself and again
became helpless. He then tried another
physician who felt confident of curing him
by the use of the electric battery and medi
cines which he prescribed. But failure was
the result, he got no better, and another
physician was tried and treated him for
some time. Bv this time his wholo body
was affected. Sharp pains would start in
hi* hand or foot, run np one side of his
body, over his shoulders and then down the
other aide and then pass off for a short time.
These pains would return regularly, affect
ing his whole body, and nothing seemed tS
relieve him and he began to despair of ever
being well. In the spring of 1892 a relative
in another county read of a cats very simi
lar to Mr. Pennell’s, which had been cured
by Pink Pills, and sent the article to him,
asking if it did not suit his ease. It was
very similar and he determined to try them.
He commenced taking Pink Pills and soon
felt better, the pains became less violent
with longer intervals between them. He
felt encouraged and persevered in their use
and soon became able to work on the farm,
and in April or May he felt so free from
pain that he considered himself a well man
again. He sa;-s he has probably taken 20
boxes and able to do es good a day’s work os
any other man, and wo can say that he
looks like a hale and hearty man who had
never known sickness.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new life and rich
ness to the blood aud restore shattered
nerves. They are for sale by all druggists,
or may be had by mnil from Dr. Williams’
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y., for
60c. oer box. or aix boxes for $2.50.

a s/vCUUSO Ot
the alarming shrinkage in both flesh and
milk of the cows that wore fed on hulls
alono. Tho first lot of four cows fed
on ensilage alone neither gained nor lost
in weight, but the daily yield of milk
fell from 71.94 pounds on tho first day
of tho test to 53.0 pounds on tho last
day a sriukage of nearly 19 pouuds.
The second lot of four cows, which
were fed on hulls aloue, lost 174 pounds
in weight during the 8 days, and their
daily yield of milk fell from 81.71
pounds on the first day of the test to
30.23 pounds on the last days a shrink
age of 51.46 pounds in the daily yield
in 8 days. The experiment was discon
tinued because it was not thought ex
pedient to starve the rows. It was con
ducted long enough to prove (what
chemical analysis indicates) that cotton
seed hulls alono are not sufficient to
maintain a cow in flesh'or milk. Anayl-
sis suggests that they are about equal
to oat straw as roughage, having, how-
over, a considerable advantage in their
finely divided condition, which makes
it a conveuiet menstruum iu whioh to
mix concentrated and tine ground feeds,
such as bran, corn moal and cottou seed
meal.

Bulletin No. 21 contains directions for
compounding rations for milch cows,
beeves, horses and hogs, including mix

llAetarlal Blight of tho Tomato.
Dr. A. E. W., Centerville, Miss.: My
tomato vinos have been diseased for three
years past. The past season I have bad
none at ull to mature. About the time
the tomatoes are grown, one twig or one
limb begins to wither, and this usually
extends to the entire plant In n day or two.
The whole patch is not attacked at once,
but generally one plant after another be
comes diseased, until it extends to the 1
whole. I
For the three seasons past I have plant- |
ed in the sume garden, but not in the (
identical spot. The whole patch withers ,
and is full of fine, full grown fruit. I '
tried kerosene emulsion to no purpose— j
also slug shot and tobacco dust. I have
seen the gardens affected in like manner;
not in the same neighborhood, but six or
eight miles apart.
What is the disease and what Is the
remedy?
[Answer by Hugh N. Staunes, Horti
culturist.]
You have exactly described the
symptoms of the Bacterial Blight of the
tomato—a disease whioh of late years
is becoming quite prevalent at the
South, and affects the Irish potato as
well as the tomato. The baoterium in
question follows the inroads previonsly
made by a fungus—the Macrosporium
solani—after the vitality of the plant
has been lowered by the latter’s attack. :
It is productive, in some seotions, of a
great deal of damage, and is quite per
sistent. It is liable to increase for
some time unless remedial measures
are universally adopted, for the simple
reason that both tomato and potato
growing is largely on the increase in
all parts of the Sonth.
On account of its persistency rota
tion should be strictly observed, and as
far as possible neither tomatoes nor po
tatoes shonld be planted either on the
same spot, as a succession, nor in close
proxifnity. The writer believes that
he has also discovered the baoterium iu
question on chrysanthemums planted
this year on the spot occupied by toma
toes last year, showing that the malady
may in future extend to other plants
Wherever there are any indications
of the blight the plants should be taken
up and burned, and the plat for the
next season looated as far off as pos
sible.
Spraying with Bordeaux Mixtnre
will also prove effective. Make the so
lution rather weak—in the proportion
of 4 pounds bluestone and 5 pounds
lime to 50 gallous of water.
The applications you used would do
no good because they are all insecti
cides, not fnngicides.
llow to Keep Apple*.
B. N. B.; GrifTiin, Ga.: I have somo
Yates apples still on the trees which I
want to save for future use. How is the
the best way to keep them? Please give
mo all you know about it and oblige.
[Answer by Hugh N. Staknes, Horti
culturist.]
There is no bettor way to keep them
than to barrel thorn. Do not gather
until fully ripe and then pack tightly,
forcing iu until there is no chance of
their rolling and jolting; this wonld
bruise them and start decay. At the
North overy farmer has a sort of clamp
fastening to top and bottom of barrel
with which the head can be pressed
into place with considerable force, as
the top of a grape basket is forced down
by hand in order to prevent injury
from jolbiug in long shipments.
• After heading up put the barrels iu
a cool place with a uniform tempera
ture where there will be no danger
from freezing, and your apples ought
to keep perfectly sound for months.
The Yates has a general reputation as
a good keeper, though I have not found
them so. In this particular they will
not compare with Shockley, though a
much hotter apple in quality.
Many persons keep apples well iu
this climate by covering with Cotton
Soed, and I have seen them keep this
way as late as April iu thorough condi
tion. Caro must bo taken, however,
not to bury them in bulk, but they
must be distributed through tho seed.
It is also nocessary not to have so large
a pile of seed. It is also necessary not
to have so large a pile of seed as to run
any danger from heating. Just suffi
cient to keep them from freezing is all
that should be used.
The use of sand is troublesome and
not recommended except where cotton
seed are not obtainable, and the grower
has no faith in barreling. Try barrel
ing once, and it is not probable that
you will desert it for any other method.
