Summary The results of the work which has been described can be summarized as follows: A new, workable process has been developed using standard oil mill machinery, which can process cottonseed into oil, meal, linters, and a new product. The economic position of the new process depends upon the use made of the new product; in the version of the new process investigated by this study, the new process competes on about equal terms with existing processes. Although the new process does not give immediate promise of additional profits to cottonseed processors, another possibility for new products from cottonseed has been explored which might become important in the future if the present demands for second cut linters and hulls should decline.
