Figs. 21 and 22 exhibit practically the same gin as was tised in horse power gin houses shown in Fig. 12, except that feeder and condenser are added. In Fig. 12 the attendant must remain constantly at the gin to evenly feed the cotton to it. A gin without a condenser blows the loose, fluffy cott(jn into a separate room, from which it must be carried out in baskets to the press.
