Washington, Sept 15.--In the man. ufacture of alcohol from corn cobs and corn stocks. at small cost, the department of agriculture Is develop ing a new industry that the depart ment says is likely to he of large commercial value. Investigations which the department is making at Hoopeston, H., have proved that the large quantities of corn cobs which every year heretofore have gone 10 waste can be converted into alcohol in sufficient quantities to justify the erection of distilling plant in con- nection with corn cannery.
 The department of agriculture sent two chemists to Hooreston to make experiments at a large cannery there They have succeeded by simple meth ods, in getting six gallons Of alcohol rom ton of green corn stalks. A statement concerning the experiments by one of the scientists of the depart ment reads:
 At different times during the past 25 years the department has con- ducted experiments along the same line, but with common field S)rn stalks. These tests show that there are "A pounds of fermentable sub stance in a ton of green field corn stalks which VII yield about half of their weight in absolute alcohol. In round numbers, ton Of stalks will produce 100 pounds of alcohol or 200 rounds of rroof spirits. As gallon of alcolol weighs nearly seven pounds. there should be 15 gallons of alcohol in tone of stalks.
 Not only are the cobs waste pro duct, but the irregular and spoiled ears of corn as well. Hand labor Is as yet employed in the hrsking and all ears are put In. as the wage is based upon measure full. As meas ures of ears are emptied upon the conveyors the ears unfit for use are culled as they go by. These cul'ed ears also are waste The exrense of bringing them to the point where they are cast aside is quite as much as the perfect ears. The addition of the corn adds further to the possibilities of alcohol obtainable from ton of cobs and will have It's influence in bringing the quantity to greater figure"
