Abstract: | ![]() About 125,000,000 pounds of castor oil are annually used in the United States in the manufacture of paints and varnishes, fatty acids, sulphonated oils, soap and other important products, 95% of which is imported either as seed or expressed oil. Attempts are now being made to revive a former American industry in the growing of domestic crops. |
