DiStilIeTieS Can Be Es-
tabIiShed For the Sum
Of $500

Internal Revenue Commissioner
Ycrkes answering an inquiry recently
as TO how many gallons OF denatured
alcohol will approximately be needed
in the industries for 1907, says:
Having absolutely nothing 20 base
an estimate upon, il is not possible for
me 10 make an estimate as 10 the
quantity of denatured alcohol that will
be consumed in that way No formal
applications have as yet been made by
distillorics for approval Of denaturing
bonded warehouses. Such applications
could not be filed for the reason that
the proper blanks have not as yet been
placed in the hands Of collectors. AZ
present there are forty distilleries in
tho United States manufacturing what
might be termed commercial alcohol"
IN reply 60 a criticism Of the law on
the ground that regular distillorics only
can engage IN the manufacture of de-
naturcd alcohol, enabling the whiskcy
trust. 20 secure practically monopoly,
Mr.. Yerkcs said:
This Office knows OF no process by
which alcohol can be manufactured cx-
lcept by distillation, and as regular
ldistillerles are tho only kind recognized
by tho law, alcohol manufactured IN
der the supervision OF this department
must be manufactured at regular dis
tiHeries There are absolutely no linn
itations as TO tho slze OF the distillery
that can be operated under the law.
There are over 1000 dlstilleries in OPP
Grafton now. at each Of which the daily
spirit producing capacity is less than
80 gallons Many OF these we're set up
on an outlay Of less than $4,000. So far
as the internal revenue laws are con-
cerned. either In theory or IA practice
the smallest and crudest dstillery can
produce alcohol II as a business prop
ositlon &c is deemed advisable to do so
The small distlleries have always been
treated by this department with the
same consideration as the larger ones
How a Farmer May Produce.
III farmer OF other person desires
to go into the business Of manufacture
ing denatured alcohol, at a plant how-
3 ever small he will be required 10 con-
struct his plant I'm the manner pre-
scribed by the general laws and regu-
lations. lie will be required TO give q
bond, the effect OF which is TO prevent
him from defrauding the government
or the tax on any distilled spirits pro-
duced by him, He will be required "a
establish a distillory warehouse; to dc.
post tho spirits produced by him n
this warehouse; 20 establish denatur,
ling bonded warehouse. and TO tax pa,
or dcnaturc. Just as he may wish. thi
lalcohol produced by him. All OF thi
will be done under governmental SUI
lpervision, but the government pays fot
this supervision. The manufacturer o.
alcohol does not bear one cent Of It.
There is no objection 10 a farmer
manufacturing his alcohol IN his bacl
yard provided he wants TO establish
distiuery there. II you will take thu
trouble to investigate you will find II

alcohol in Germany do not differ {,
