department is making at Hoopeston,
ILL.,, have proved that the large quan.
titles of corn cobs., which every year
heretofore have gone to waste, can be
converted into alcohol in sufficient
quantities to justify the erection of a
distilling plant in connection with a
corn cannery.
The department of agriculture sent
two chemists to Hoopeston to make
experiments at a large cannery there.
They have succeeded by simple meth
DDS of fermentation in getting yield
of eleven gallons of alcohol from a
ton OF green cobs, and by similar
methods in getting six gallons of al
cohol from a ton of green corn stalks.
A statement concerning the expert
ments by one of the scientists of the
department reads:
''At different times, during the past
twenty-five years, the department has
conducted experiments along the same
line, but with common field corn
stalks. These tests show that there
are 240 pounds of fermentable SUBJ
stance in a ton of green field corn
stalks which will yield about half of
their weight in absolute alcohol. In
round numbers a ton of stalks will
produce 100 pounds of alcohol or 200
pounds OF proof spirits. AS gallon
of alcohol weighs nearly seven pounds
there should be fifteen gallons of al
cohOl in a ton of stalks.
"Not only are the cobs a waste
product, but the irregular and spoiled
ears of corn as we'll. Hand labor is
as yet employed in the husking, and
all ears are put in, as the wage is
based upon measure full. AS the
measures of ears are emptied upon
the conveyors the ears unfit for use
are culled as they go by. These culled
ears also are waste. The expense of
bringing them to the point where they
are cast aside is quite as much as the
perfect ears. The addition of the corn
on the cob adds further to the posi-
bilities of alcohol obtainable from a
ton of cobs and will have it's influence
in bringing the quantity to greater
fgure.''

the last moment Dayton was ap-
