oil is not affected by the air again

The oil is also used for cattle feeding

Starch the Chief Constituent.
The size of the kernel considered, the
principal constituent of corn is the
starch. To extract that the shelled corn
is placed in watts, about a thousand
bushels Of corn to 5000 gallons of wa
ter. In the water is a small proportion
of sulphuric acid, just enough to soften
the kernel, loosen the glutinous matter
and free the germ. After thirty or for
ty hours the water is drawn off to be
evaporated, so that any of the corn 1T
has absorbed may be recovered In
former years this water was wasted.
now the phosphates and albuminoids in
it amount to from one to one and one
half pounds to bushel of corn that has
been soaked. 1t is then mixed with the
by products which sell as cattle feed.
The mass left behind after the water
was drained off is run thru mills, ak
ing off the hulls, breaking up the glu-
tinous matter, and freeing the germs.
The gluten, starch and hull are ground
fine and passed over silk boiling cloth.
The hull or bran remains on top but
the starch and gluten pass thru. The
gluten and starch get another bath and
the starch being the heavier, remains
behind. The starch is now in solid
form, and after the last water is dried
out the product Is ready for the mar
ket.

laundry, brewery, or confectionery, or
sold in the same can with baking pow

the hole during the reaction. and the
hole is freed preferably by knocking
this up into the liquid mass, when 1t
is at once fused. In this way the pre-

tents is easier to regulate than by al
lowing the plug to remain in position
until melted out. The top Of the plug

To Keep Burglars Out

The majority of window locks are
OF no value when it is desired to leave
the window partially open for ven
tilating purposes, and in many there
is no provision for automatically
locking the cash when the window
is closed.
The lock illustrated below combines
both of these features and makes it
possible to leave the window open a
considerable distance without fear
that burglars may gain an entrance,
as 1t is impossible to open the sash
beyond the fixed limit.
Secured to the inner face Of the up
per sash is slotted plate, having an
enlargement at the lower end for the
entrance of the head of the spring
bolt mounted on the lower sash.
The head of this bolt is slotted on
either side to allow movement in the

OF the casing presses the bolt toward
the plate. but when it is desired to

ceived in time or is due to an error
in calculating the position of the ship
this invention is intended to serve
as a never-sleeping advance watch
man, to apprise the commanding Of
ficer Of the ship Of danger ahead.
The apparatus consists of a double
pointed tubular shell, containing an
electric motor, supported by sur
face float and having a vertical arm
descending underneath to the depth
corresponding to the vessels draft.
Two cables leading from the ship to
the "feeler" supply the medium
through which the current reaches
the motor and returns. When the
device comes in contact with any
solid substance the current is In
terrupted and signal given on board
the ship.
The inventor intends that three of
these feelers' shall be used by ship
and provides for use in connection
with them a system of projecting
arms for sending different signals
back to the ship to indicate whether
the obstruction is stationary or in
motion and If the latter in what d.
