Somw Fncit a.uU t fgnrek toineruiuj llio Value of Cottuu Seed ill lite New Viie in which They Figure New and Important luduhtries for the South. Atlanta Constitution. : In response to mauy inquiries from parties who desire to investigate tue matter as to me cost ot cotton seeu mills the probable pronts and methods, 1 submit the t olio wing: My former letter covered all general points of interest and I propose this morning merely to give such details as I have gathered that mav be useful to those intending to build and that an swer the questions that have been ask ed most frequently. In order to give the best information tinnn the subiect I 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 tor as author itv on anv subiect that he will give an opinion on. He is careful, prudent, and with all so modest that he forbids the tise of hs name. In reply to my question as to what would be the cost of a mill with a capacity of one hun dred barrels per day, he said "That is a very large mill, and larger than most of the inquiries that I nave call for. A mill with a capacity of fifty barrels a day is what is usually wanted Sich a mill complete'y equip, ed would cost about thirty tnouaaua aollara. Thi3 would give four presses and twenty-four boxes, and would have a capacity of fifty barrels of oil per dav.". "What makes the machinery so ex pensive V "In the first place the machinery is most of it built expressly for the pur pose. The hydraulic presses which are used are the most expensive outfit. A ereat deal of ground and sheds are ueeded in order to Keep tne seea ary, and these must be fitted with elevators on which the seed is passed from one room to another occasionally so that it will get an airing and prevent heat intror fermentation. This is the nrst process in maning on o. - . .. . , . ., The seed having been aired and put in the rierht condition for the null they are then passed to the nnters. mis is a verv imDortant process, as an aver age of 3 ner cent of lint is taken from the seed ncnt nere. ... This lint, amounting to sixiy pounds toeverv ton of seed, is .sold lor batting, ana the average puce obtained lor it this ear was six and three-fourths cents, making abont four dollars worth of lint taken from tvery ton of seed After the seed leaves the linters it is then nut in the hulling machine. The u Is when taken oil are used lor luel Ihe hull furnishes more fuel than is necessary to worK tne seea. j ne resi due of the burned hulls is called cotton ash and contains sixteen per cent o Dure notash. and has an immediate commercial and fertilizing value. The bulk of the seeds, after bem hulled, are rolled over a series of rollers that uress them into a Hat substance without expressing any ot the oil This is then out into hair cloth boxes which are themselves very expensive and put in boilers, lhey are not pu in water but are subjected to steam boiling, and after having been proper ly boiled are then put 111 the pivss un the oil is expressed." "This is the crude oil, is it not r "Yes. Sir, and the process of refilling is entirely distinct from the seed 01 mill. The refinery is a distinct estab lishment, calling tor a distinct set ol machinery lor a distinct process ana is usually under another management, it is no more connected with a cotton seed mill than a cotton factory is connected with a gin." "The machinery and outfit will cost 630,000 you say ?" "les, and you can see-wnere me money will go to by iunning over the account or the process requirea. "Where can this machinery be bought?" "it can be bougnt piecemeal irom va rious machine works that make it, or it can be ordered in bulk from persons who are prepared to fil such orders. There are two or three such places in the United States, all of which are re liable and have frequently filled orders for mills. They understand where the best machinery can be bought and the best combinations made." ' What working capital would it re quire in addition to the'S30,000 V" "That depends upon circumstances. If a company is properly organized and has sufficient credit, very little would be 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 barrel mill. You see the work is ail done in the winter, and it is necessary to have the capital to command the ma terial in sufficient quantity whenever it is wanted to run the mill for the en tire six months." "What are the profits of the busi ness?" "I am not willing to state. Indeed it would be very hard to state definitely what the profits would be under any given circumstances, there are so many contingences. This season it happens that all the products of the mills the cotton ash, the cotton meal, the lint and the oil are in demand, and bring high prices, consequently the mills have made a great deal of money. Other years have not been so fortunate. It is fair to say, however, that the Southern mills have been prosperous to a very great degree, and the results achieved have been such as to induce the build ing of new mills with great rapidity. There were fourteen new mills put up in the South last year. A significant fact is that three of the new mills were put up at Memphis, where four were al ready running, and where information on the subject was the fullest. With out going into details, I will say that there are few investments that will pay better than this if it is properly managed." "Will the increase be very rapid in the future?" 'Undoubtedly. There are two char ters for mills in Atlanta. Companies stand behind each ready and anxious to build. Two will be built as soon as it is thought that enough seed can be pro cured to justify two mills in starting." "Is the buying of seed a great trou ble?" "That is the only trouble, and that is really the first point that anyone about to build should investigate. He should be certain that he can get a sufficient supply of seed delivered at the point at which his mill is to be located. There is less trouble now about getting seed than formerly, as the price has risen to about fifteen cents a bushel. When the price was ten cents to twelve cents, the farmers did not care to sell but used it on their farms or wasted it. At fifteen cents it pays the farmer to look after it and see that it is delivered at some mill and sold. Ifc is my. opuuon that in a few years every - available: point m the South will be occupied by a cotton seed oil mill, and that the bulk of the crop will be utilized." u . . "You find no trouble about the sale of -None whatever. When we first started -this trouble -was 'in; ourwav; we had" to mix our oil with linseed and other oil in order to sell it, and we were afraid tfr say that it was cotton seed oil that we were offering. Now all that is changed and the cotton seed oil has demonstrated its purity, efficien cy and value, and the mills could sell at profitable figures very much more than they produce, I might say an in definite amount." Is it being used much for domestic purposes ?" les, very much more than we had hoped. Its growth for kitchen Hise is simply amazing. We get inquiries every day concerning it from all parts of the country ana the interest is very general. rartiea will naturally preter it to Jiog a aid it it can be demonstrated tnat it will take its place. This it does when ever it gets a chance. We sent out sev eral hundred boxes as samples when we nrst started. The grocers would not touch it at all. The demand for it from families who have tried it is now lead ing 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. tfar nett, who is a prudent and experienced man, tried it and writes tnat ne nas used it in beat biscuit, and that it is simply imossible 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 claim ed that he is able when lying on hi3 back and suffering from dyspepsia to tell exactly how many licks are put upon beat biscuit, claiming that 931 stout blows are necessary to bring a beat biscuit to full perfection.j "This testimony is that of almost every one who has tried it." "Does the meal 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 analy sis 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 mtal 170. The American dairy association made a report upon this subiect, and declared that one bushel of cotton seed meal would pro duce 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 es tablished articles of commerce and of common use. They have therefore had to move slowly, but they have moved none the less surely. Their superior quality is now confessed on all sides and the future is plain sailing. There is no doubt in my mind, and 1 am not an enthusiastic man, aud 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 ot the seed or the cotton crop shall be made merchantable 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 commend itself to domestic use. In this way we shall add millions to the value oi our staple crop, and es tablish two important industries in the South in addition to what we have al ready." After securing these facts I sought Mr. Albert Thornton, who is now en gaged in purchasing the machinery for a new cotton seed oil mill to be estab lished in Atlanta, and who before de termining upon this investment made careful investigations as to the probable profit. 1 give what he says: "The cost of our mill will be about thirty-five thousand dollars; this in eludes the very best of machinery that is for sale. Cheap machinery could be had for less. The capacity of this mil will be twenty barrels for every ten hours. In estimating the capacity of machinery, however, workers usually consider a day as twenty three hours running night and day. The capacity of our machinery on this basis would be fifty barrels per day. "What working capital will you use?" UI should say probably ten thousand dollars. This added to the cost of our machinery would make S4o,ouo say an investment of SoO.OOO. Now, what profit do vou expect?" "It is hard to say definitely, but have no hesitation in giving you the figures that have induced us to buy Sixty bushels of cotton.seed make atoD The price now is from ten to twelve cents, but I estimate to lay them down at our mill at 20 cents, as the price will advance. On this basis a ton of seed will cost say S12. Now for the product. We will get thirty-five gallons of oil which now sell at 40 cents a gallon. 1 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 we get, say 25 pounds of lint saved from the seed. Many put this at sixty pounds, but with the im proved gins now used, there is not so much left on the seed, This lint sells at six and a-half cents a pound, would give us say a dollar and sixty cents. Then we have 900 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 pro duct for a ton of seed which cost $12 worth $17.15, or a pres3 profit of about five dollars a ton ; as the mill will work twenty tons by running ten hours a day, this would be a profit of one hun dred dollars for the day's work. The cost of making this would be $15 a day for labor, including a superintendent, a book-keeper, a skilled workman and six common laborers. Fuel would be pro vided by the hulls of the seed. The in terest on the investment would be say, ten dollaf s a working day. For inci dentals ten dollars a day, and for wear and tear of machinery say, ten dollars a day. This makes a total cost of $45 per day, or, to put it in round figures, $50 a day on a gross profit of $100 a day. This would give us a return of about 30 per cent on our investment above the interest of eight per cent, which is charged up in expenses. These are the general figures upon which we have determined to go into the busi ness." "If these figures are correct, why is it that more cotton seed oil mills are not being built?" "Simply because the business has just been established. The growth in cot ton seed oil mills has been wonderful, and in my opinion has just fairly start ed. Another thing that has retarded the development of this interest is the difficulty of getting seed. That is the one point that bothers us now, but I be lieve we can get enough to run us. I have several letters now from parties wanting to buy seed for us, and guaran teeing to sell us at less than fifteen cents a bushel. Under the system of custom gins which is now being estab lished, it is easier to buy seed than be fore. MosU)f the cotton seed accumu lating at these gins belongs to tenants, who would sell it at almost any price rather than haul it back to their farms. Mr. Sykes, of Hogansville, tells me that he could have sold me 25,000 bushels of cotton seed last year at 10 cents a bushel. I believe that we can get all that we need. Of course I am interested in no way in getting people to build seed oil mills, as I am going into the business mysttff, my interests would naturally be tho other way. I simply desire to give an answer to your questions and to scores of letters that have been writ ten me making inquiries similar to those you have received. I don't know that the figures I have given you can be realized by any one . else. I don't tnow that we will realize them. I sim ply know that they are in general terms the basis on which we haye determined i - i a a 000." The above answers all the questions ha I can think of in connection with this subject. What I have written has been with a view of Dresentmg in gen eral terms the figures of cost and profit in an industry that must prove of vast benefit to the South if developed, and I believe Dr-ofi table to those engaged in it. Of course no business man should make any venture involving an outlay of $50,- 000 without personally investigating the details for himself and acting on his own judgment. If what has been written will serve to simply call the attention of people having money to nvest to this industry that promises so ouch, all the purposes for which it has been written will have been fully met.
