a couple Of Chicago men are said TO
have discovered a method Of mannfac-
turing alcohol from sawdust whereby
1t may be produced at cost OF cents
per gallon as against is cents or more
for the dlstillation Of grain alcohol.
Considering the prospective scarcity Of
corn and also OF sawdust, the new
process would seem to have little to
commend it from the commercial stand
point for the future. whatever may be
done with 1t IN the present.

A walk through a field Of standing
corn and careful Inspection Of the ears
will bring out the fact that the ears
which are high up on the stalk are not
so far along and well matured rs those
which are waist or chest high. This
should serve to give point to the sug-
gesilon that II early maturing seed is
desired the low growing ears should be
selected, Another point in favor Of
the low ear is that its early maturity
makes possible a thorough drying Of It
before the freezing weather comes on.

His name is Joseph Frenttas. he Is
from Porto Rico, and he is blacker than
a plug hat. Fate led him into a Sixth
avenue department store yesterday and
guided his reluctant, ample feet to a
counter where there was a special sale
OF socks.
There, staring at Joseph, the warm
blooded Porto Rican, were mountains
OF socks-pink socks, crimson socks,
yellow socks, violet socks, blue socks,
green socks with yellow stripes, water
melon socks, sunset socks, rainbow
socks, socks that shrieked. socks that
sobbed, socks that sighed and moaned
and LAUGHED. and howled in riotous com

went away from there.

where there was a special sale Of neck

An elevator appealed to him and he
ascended to the next floor. Surely fate
was leading him, for lie found himself
confronting counter given over to the
sale of fancy vests. And right on top
of the pile were two vests Of green cloth,
with golden stripes running down and
