Hew Orleans Tiinen-Dcmocrat: 

 Among all the leading industries of 

 the Sonth not one better demonstrates 

 the practical growth of the section dur- 

 ing the. past senii-de'.ade than that 

 which has cotton seed for its basis. 

 'i'he importance of this material fur 

 purposes other than the production of 

 'cotton have been tersely and insiruet- 



late.l in an address by I'r< 

 Myers of the Mississippi Agricultural 

 and Mechanical College, in which thai 

 learned edticatur .-,nid: " There in no 

 agricultural projeft known to your 

 il-.t.r that has n value e'jiial to tbi- 

 Imovt any place you i-au put it. 

 may take its hulls and use them 

 feed, for fertilizers and I'm
