".Southern house-keepers should
give this product a careful trial.
It directly concerns the prosperity
of an important industry in the
Houth. The cotton seed oil Industry
in one peculiar to the South and
one that directly or indirectly bene-
fits our farmers and through them
all classes of citizens.
Then here is a product—the gen-
eral use of which will enhance the
value of that chief of crops, cotton
—offered to the trade, and it rest*
with house-keepers to say, whether
or not it will be used. They are
not asked to use it simply because
Its use will benefit thelSouth, but
because it will supply the place of
liog's lard, and for many uses it is
superior.
For eatables that require a small
amount of heat to be cooked it la
better, as its frying point is much
sooner reached than is that of lard.
It is more healthy than lard in that
itis anti-dyspeptic, and it is cheaper
tha'n lard, as three-fourths the
quantity of it will go as far as a
pound of lard, and it sells for
slightly less.
Our house-keepers will not be
hurt by giving it a trli-i, and then
they will probably discard lard."

This grew out of the efforts of the
American Tobacco company attempt-
ing to force the wholesale and other
dealers of this city into an agreement
that they the dealers, would not
handle or sell the floods of other
manufacturers. This the dealers
resisted, when the Amorican Tobacco

refuse to sell their goods to the
dealers who would not enter into tho
agreement. This resultod in the
dealers going before the grand jury
and having Messrs. Duke and Mar-

Ballinger before Judge Ivittrell in
