ALCOHOL co.
is FORMED
Process for Making De-
natnred Product From
BeetS

OXNARD, CAL, July ga company
for the manufacture of denaturad al
cohol from sugar beets and other
vegetables has just been formed by a
number Of local capitalists. 1t is cap
-italized at $1,000,000, and $4,000 in
preferred stock has already been SUBJ
scribed by residents of this valley. The
name of the new concern is the Amer
lean Alcohol and Sugar company.
Several months ago Professor Rob-
ert Grower Of Los Angeles interested
Emmett Crane, one of the prominent
ranchers of this valley, in the project
of making denatured alcohol out of
sugar beets. Ben Virden,a druggist
of this city became interested about
the same time and Immediately began
a series of experiments in the manu-
facture of the product by the Palmer
method, which is to be used in the
plant that is to be built by the new
concern. a1H aa} 41 saea Jf
These exeriments were so success
full that steps to interest capital to

Professor Grower owns the patent
for the Palmer method and the COM
pany just formed will therefore have
the exclusive right to that process in
the United States and Canada. The
process of making the alcohol is sim
pie and inexpensive. The vegetables
are made into mash and the mash is
fermented by adding bran. The alco-
ho1 is then extracted from the fer
ment 1t is said that the alcohol man.
ufacturer can readily AFFORD to pay
the grower Of sugar beets far more
for his product than has ever been
offered by sugar factory. If this is
so, some highly interesting develop
ments are sure to follow the erection
of an alcohol plant in this valley.
A site for the factory has not We
been determined upon, but it is proba'
BILE that one in the immediate vicinity
of Oxnard will be chosen. The di'
rectors Of the company are F. Hart
man, G. c. Power, Ben s. Virden
