lied at Rendsburg, Prussia, for the pur-
pose of distilling alcohol from peat. The

which it hopes to be able to put in oper-
alton some during this month. Accord
ing to its process, the company will be
able to distill alcohol cheaper from peat
than it can be obtained from other sub
stances, and will, therefore, be able to
sell it's product for fuel purposes.
