The Lampasas cotton oil mill
has finished its grinding run for
the season, full six months time
having been employed day and
night in crushing the seed, ex-
tracting the oil, grinding meal,
pressing cake and other like
labor. The season’s, run has
been a great success, there
having been local demand for
every pound of meal and; hulls
which the mill could furnish at
prices which were entirely
satisfactory. The oil finds a
ready market all the year and is
the principal money product of
the mill. Lampasasi is to be
congratulated on the success of
this enterprise.
