Holly Has No Vacant Buildings

The department of agriculture is
developing 4 new industry in the
production of alcohol from corncobs,
which the department says. prom
ises to be OF much commercial value.
Investigations are being made At
Hooteston, H.. and have proved
that the large quantities of eorhcobs
which every year 60 to waste, can be
made to produce alcohol in sufficient
-qasatities to Justify the .sseot;on of

by similar methods. in getting six
gallons OF alcohol from \ ton o +
green cornstalks. a department of
fetal says that these TESTS show that
there are z4o pounds of fermentable.
substance in ton of.gresn,aeld 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 OK 400
pounds of proof spirits. As I gallon
of alcohol weighs nearly seven
pounds, there should be fifteen gallons
of alcohol in 4 ton Of stalks. The
addition OF the corn on the cob adds
further to the disabilities of alcohol
obtainable from ton Of cobs, and
will have its influence. in bringing
the quantity to greater figure

tiful, the doctor baited hook with
pork, tied the line to the ships rail
and went back into the cabin for a
few moments On his return to the
line, it seemed very heavy, and, call
ing out enthusiastically, 11've got a
big fish," he, started to pull it in. The
cry brought number of fellow trav-
elers to him, just in time to see him
disgustedly pull on deck a fifteen
pound piece Of iron which the sec

absence. Now, .whenever he goes
fishing, he uses different kind of
bait.

Patiently for many days she lay,

skill could do was done, but to no

morning her gentle spirit parted away
and returned to God who gave it.

inanimate form and see no Anna with
loving voice and gentle mein, but An

habilaments of death, so near yet so

God, but when it came she kissed it's
power and meekly parted beneath the
rod, leaving her pure young life and
example worthy of imitation.
Deeply do we sympathize with the

and sorrow that fills their hearts and
homes, when they know that on no
tomorrow will the absent loved one

Oh this cross the grieving question.

and both were entirely wiped out. AT

Opposition to the SAINT. Fe.

"A story is going the, rounds. but
we can't vouch for it. that Granada
merchant recently ordered barrel of
oil from the Lamar agent Jed Dow
ing. Five days later he wrote that
he had not received the oil and re-
~newed the order. Three days later
Mr.. Dowing was called up over the
phone and told to,come down to the
tank ationce- .asi there was an express
order to fill for oil. He arrived. to
j find wagon belonging to the Gra-
NADIA merchant and drawn by yoke
,of oxen waiting for barrel of oil.
Two days after the OK express reach
!, ed Granada the first barrel sent by
Santa Fe got there. and whether the
second has lever yet got beyond
Morse siding is beyond the power of
the human mind to fathom.
