Conclusion The foregoing has been set forth in an effort to point out possible ways and means by which an oil mill may broaden its horizons or scope of operation. We have tried to show economic advantages to be gained by having these operations performed at the mill site rather than having some‐one somewhere else do them with the attendant increase in price to the ultimate consumer. In other words, it has been our aim to show how an oil mill may become more integrated in its operation and not simply add on certain features for addition's sake. Where possible, savings have been shown by using common components, common labor, and common power, all necessary to operate the oil mill in its regular state without the additional benefits and revenues derived from integrated processing.
