gathering the product in the fields.
Mr. Hertzka said in the course of
an interview that in a short time
the company will handle the surplus
potatoes from thousands of acres of
land, adding:
The process of distilling denatur-
ed alcohol is not much different from
that of the pure product. The pota-
toes. grain, fruit and such other pro-
ducts as are used. are washed and
then crushed, then cooled, after
which the pulp is run into a storeage
tank. where it remains for from so
to - hours for fermentation. 1t is
then pumped into a boiling tank and
the yapor from it rises through a
worm filled with cold water, causing
the vapor TO condense This con-
densed vapor is pure alcohol. and to
make the denatured alcohol product.
10 gallons of wood alcohol and one
half gallon of benzine are added TO
every 100 gallons of the pure pro-
duct.

mother had been called away from

lowered her head in confusion, but
there was no sign of merriment on

government in rebuttal, several of
whom testified Mrs. Bradley appeared
at all times rational and affable. 1t
was brought out that Brown had
made a proposition to Mrs. Bradley
to accept $1,000 and 500 a month

offer. saying she wanted to marry
Brown. in order that her children by

During today's testimony Mrs,
Bradley wept and sobbed, and in the
forenoon session she gave indication
that she was about TO collapse. How
ever, she mustered such strength as
she possessed and concluded today's
ordeal in fair condition. Resting OF
the defense today came in the nature
of surprise, as it had been expected
that alienists would be kept on the
stand for much longer period.
