A NEW INVENTION.
For Treating Cotton Seed- Will
Save Millions Roasted Seeds
to Sell Like Peanuts.
Iu Washington a private de-
monstration was made last week of
an invention which has been pro-
nounced by authorities oncottou
and by eminent chemists through-
out the country to be the greatest
stride since Eli Whitney mveute I
the cotton gin in the early part of
the nineteenth century. It deals
and covers all steps in its treat-
ment from the lime the seed leaves
the giu after the cotton has been
removed to its production into re-
fined oil making possible the aban-
donment of six separate operations
requiring the use of a like number
of intricate machines. It com-
prises the complete iud perfect de-
fliutiug aud hulling of cotton seed
by u secret chemical process iu
twenty minutes compared with the
mechanical meaus aud the hours
required under the old process;
the recovery of all the lint aud
hulls of the seed in perfect con-
dition for paper stock of high qual-
ity as compared with the recovery
of only a small percentage iu poor
cbuditiou aud worthless as paper
stuck under the old process; the
production of refined oil from the
seed iu three operations occupying
one hour aud tweuty minutes us
compared wilh teu separate opera-
tions pecupyiug mauy hours under
the old melhud.
The seed as it comes from the
giu incased iu hulls aud Hut is
treated by the secret chemical so-
lution which removes the hulls
entirely und dries the kernel ot
meat uf the seed. The process re-
duces the weight of the seed one-
half aud its bulk two-thirds for
transportation to oil mills while
the cunt is reduced 50 per cent as
compared with the present prevail-
ing methods of treating the seed.
The hulls aud lint removed from
a ton of seed by the new process
are said to yield 1000 pounds of
paper stocks as compared with less
than 400 pounds by the method
uow in use; aud this.ipaper stock
is worth in the condition left by
the new processes from $10 to $20
a ton as compared with between
$3 and $4 per ton for the amount
of paper itock recovered iu poor
condition by the usual method.
This alone would constitute a net
gaiu of from $9 to $13 s ton or on
the basis of last year's product it
is contended would save to the cot-
ton growers of the south about
$38000000.
In the process of extracting the
oil the oil cake is free from the
ohemical nd becomes adapted for
me SB b food product for cattle or
ai a fertiliser. Under the usual
method it is possible to extract
ouly about 40 per cent of oil from
the seed while the uew process
its backers assert makes possible
the extraction of practically 100
per cent aud the cost of producing
crude oil by the new method is re-
duced 50 per cent. The oil refined
by the secret process is in addi-
tion it is asserted by chemists who
have made careful analysis equal
to any imported olive oil sold on
the American market while the
cost of refining is no greater than
the preseut cost of refining crude
cotton seed oil.
In nddUiout it is proposed to

roast the seeds and plnee. them on
the market iu the same manner as
peanuts are now Mild both suited
and roasted and it is believed by
the promoterat they will in
time acquire similar popularity.
It is also contemplated t grind the
seed into meal for a food product
as a substitute for the cereals.

Only That You're Away.
It isn't the fall of the lonesome rain
Down the dim and desolate day
That makes the heart and the lips com-
plain: I say it isn't the fall o' the rain;
It is only that you're away!
It is not that. I miss from the hill and
the plain
One blossom one sun-sweet ray
That I shiver and sigh like a soul in
pain
Lost to a heaven it never can gain ;
It is only that you're away !
Therose in the garden's a crimson stain
On the sombre breast o' the day ;
The lily i3 eager the drops to drain:
Oh! the sadness is not in the fall o' the
rain
It is only that you're away !

tution. FOR THE COAST CANAL.
Washington D. C Jau. 24.
Representative Broussard of Louis-
iana introduced a bill to-day direct-
ing the Secretary of War to make
an additional survey aud an esti-
mate of the cost of construction of
an inland water route along the
margin of the Gulf of Mexico from
Doualdsouville in the State of
Louisiana to the Rio Grande in
the State of Texas by way of cuts
and cnuaU to connect in the most
practicable and convenient way the
Mississipi aud the Rio Grande Riv-
ers through Bayou Lafourche At-
takaspas Canal Lake Verret Flat
Lake Bayou Teche Murphy's Ca-
nal Cote Blanche Bay Vermilion
Bay White Lake and connecting
by the most practicable and con-
venient route the Mermentcau
Calcasieu Sabine and Neches Riv-
ers with Galveston harbor In-
dianola harbor and the Rio Grande
River; said iuland water rout to
be of such dimensions aa in the
opiuion of the Secretary of War
shall be necessary for military sad
naval defense of ths Golf Coast in
the States of Louisiana aud Texas
and for commercial purposes. Ths
survey and estimates are to include
a lock at the .head of Bayou La-
fourche aud one at the Rio Grands
end of the canal. The bill appro-
priates $50000 for the survey.
