CORN HIS HOBBY.
The Father of Glucose and His Latest En-
tcrpri%e.

The Father of Glucose and His Latest En-
tcrpri@e.
CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-High up in the
Masonic temple, Chicago's Ioftiest build
ing, yesterday I met Dr.. Joseph Fir
menich, president Of the Firmenich
Manufacturing company, and many
times millionaire He has been called
the "Father of Glucose. . A large,
heavily built man, DO has remarkable
face. It reminds enc of the features of
Seneca. There are the same eager eyes,
with an expression of interest which is
more like pain, the bushy brows and the
straight aquiline nose. His beard, too,
which is of a brownish gray hue and
cropped close, emphasizes his likeness
to the Roman philosopher.
Thirty years ago the doctor started to
make glucose and grape sugar in Buf-
falO. He was the first manufacturer so
to do IN this country, but glucose had
been made in Germany for 20 years pre-
gious to that time. His factory in Buff
falo had capacity of so bushels of corn
day. People said he was going into
the thing too deeply. Last year, how
ever, his factories turned out full three
fifths of tie entire American production.
Dr.. Firmenich is a chemist of distinc-
ticn. He said to me: "Within week
have discovered that two very impor-
tant commodities can be made from corn.
These are in addition to glucose, grape
sugar, starch and cornstarch, which are
all corn products. Ibave disposed of my
mandatory at Marshalltown, Ia,
which was one of the biggest in the corn
country. We are going to erect either in
Chicago OR some town west of here the
most stupendous plant which the west
has ever seen, with the largest capacity
in the world. believe there are many
other staple articles which can be made
from corn. 1 purpose experimenting IN
til have discovered them all. -
Until recently Dr.. Firmenich was
heavy stakeholder in the American Glu-
ccse company, one of the wealthiest
trusts in existence. He owns mann
moth plant at Peoria, Ills, at present,
which the trust has in vain tried to buy.
More and more glucose is used every
year. The consumption is something
enormous. Just where the demand will
cease it is hard to say, but the doctor
proposes to manufacture glucose Just as
long as the great American public will
use it. He makes tests and experiments
every day. AS he sat in his Office sur

measuring glasses. etc, Dr. Firmenich

account of the prominence of the parties
concerned aud of the fact that such Il

currence for the legislative and judicial
departments of government to come in

ment, but it may not prove lasting one.

THE workings of the over production
theory are having a practical illustration
in connection with the cotton crop in the
south. 1t has been urged that the low
price of cotton dnring the past few years
has been occasioned by too large yield,
and concerted action was taken in many
of the cotton growing districts to limit
the acreage. The success attained is ev-
idenced by q greatly reduced yield &C.
cording to the estimates. Cotton has
advanced greatly in price. it is said, in
consequence of this purposely limited
supply. The cotton growers of the south
have doubtless been benefited to some
extent by this increase in the value of
their product, but for every one who has
received few cents pound more for
his cotton how many hundreds of already
overburdened workers in other industries
have been forced to pay an increas ed
price for necessary clothing or else do
with less? If the cotton grower by rails
ing one bale instead Of two can enhan ce
the value of his crop, why cannot the
laborer raise the value of his work BY
working five hours day instead of ten?
suppose every laborer in the country
adopted this rule there would be just
half as much produced. Does anybody
oppose that there would be any less
poverty, deprivation and suffering?
While there may be overprodaction in
few fancy or unusual articles it is safe to
assume that there is never overproduc-
ton of the necessaries of life so long as
any considerable class is deprived of
them. The theory when applied to the
things which sustain life is much like
that of Nautilus regarding humanity.
