DR.. Woods statement.-Some few weeks since,
l was invited by DR.. Eddy and Mr.. A. Thayer to
superintend and witness some experiments upon
an improvement made by DR.. Eddy in scalding
and fermenting, for the purpose Of disullauon,
which accordingly did, and the result was as
follows, Wis
/ witnessed the weighing Of the grain, and the
entire process of scalding and fermentng. and ]
am prepared to say that from % bushels grain
sawsa yield of 100 gallons of proof spirits and the
grain weighed So pounds per bushel. From all
the experiments which have witnessed, l give il
as my opinion that fermentation for distillaton anC
all other purposes by this Improvement at length
perfected, and the distllor enabled to make 81
gallons of proof spirits from every Sc lbs. grain
| The method of effectng this is very simple, ant
may be applied on the largest scale possible, ant
