Wants Protectee Guaranteed. tributor to trade journals arid author of "The Queen Cotton Seed Series of Economic Tracts," is out irr a short paper in the New York Forum, for September, in which he enters a plea in behalf of the "least ol all seeds" in public estimation in the past. It was regarded all over the south as Ot but little value, fit for manuring purposes and for nothing else. ' : , -. Mr Johnson thinks the signs indir Cate that this "least ol ail seeds" is destined to become "the greatest o! all." It has gained favor and im portance "by a hard 'and constant struggle against ignorance and preju dice." He says that it was long re garded "as an impertinent by-procl-uct interfereing with the markets for the cereals." If his figures are cor red then the world has indeed gained a most important food prod uct. We must copy at some length Irora his paper as it is ol startling in terest and will attract the attention ol all cotton planters and wheat grow ers. In fact all who need food must be interested more or less. He com-! pares wheat and cotton seed thus : Wheat Protein, 11.87; Carbohy drates 73.69; fat 2.oq; value $1.00. Cotton seed Protein, 1757; car bohydrates, 10.82; fat 20.19; value 1 $1.39. , . The above gives the number of pounds of food components and the analytical value of 1 00 pounds each of wheat and cotton seed, according to the methods in use by the agricul tural exDeriment stations. It shows the surprising fact that, pound for pound, cotton seed has a greater in trinsic value than wheat. Neither is i the bulk, of the cotton seed crop by any means insignificant as compared with wheat. There are raised in the southern states alone five-sevenths as many bushels ot cotton seed as there are raised bushels; of wheat in the whole United Slates. In spite of all the criticisms, just and unjust, of the .southern agricul ! tural methods, the yield per year in bushels ol cotton seed, over and above the fibre, is greater than the yield of wheat per' acre; and it is in creasing. The reports of the United States department of agriculture for the .season of 1S97 98, the latest ob tainable when those calculations were made, place the average yield per acre cf cotton seed jat 14.9 bushel as against I eventh avenues this morning.
