Democratic Sentinel, Volume 5, Number 33, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 September 1881 — Butter from Cotton-Seed Oil. [ARTICLE]

Butter from Cotton-Seed Oil.

Two gentlemen of this city, after experimenting for several months, have at last discovered or invented a method of making excellent butter out of cottonseed oil. Being of a purely vegetable nature, it will not have the enemies to combat that so vigorously and rancorously assail the oleomargarine, which is manufactured from animal oils. The inventors propose to make two grades of this vegetable butter, which they claim to be far superior to all other kinds of artificial butter yet made, and at the same time profess that they will be able to sell it at a much less price. After a series of trying and vexatious experiments a coloring matter was discovered that gives the article a most exquisite yellow tint, equal to that assumed by the finest New York butters. —New Orleans Democrat. •
