Power from Potatoes for Farm Ma
chinery

According to a writer In the Kan
sas Industrialist, cuied potatoes will
he furnishing the power for the gang
pillow and the engine on the farm be-
fore many more years so by. The
writer says that bushel of culled
potatoes IS worth Sc cents. Turned
into denatured alcohol they would be
worth - cents. The process of ex-
tracing the alcohol is not one that
every farmer can carry on, but the
alcohol is there all right.
Alcohol is produced by the termen-
tation Of sugar. Potatoes contain
starch that may he converted into
sugar by the addition of malt and
then fcrmented. The potatoes are
steamed until the starch is cooked
thoroughly, Then the malt is added.
When the starch has been converted
into sugar a yeast mash is added and
the sugar Is fermented, What is left
from the potato mash can be fed to
cattle. Experiments have proved that
the mash has high Feeding value.
Denatured alcohol is used for
heating and lighting, in chemicals, in
Nar0lSneS, III eA DlOSlNeS anu dr. d luti
for engines. For some years the tax
laws were such that alcohol was too
expensive as fuel for engines. For
this reason machinery has not been
adapted for using denatured alcohol.
But it is coming into use.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has issued bulletin re-
Gently on this subject. Denatured
alcohol is being extracted from po-
tatoes in other countries with sue
cess.
4 distillery for this sort of work
might be conducted by a farme rs' CO.
operative association or as a private
enterprise. a plant with daily ca
pacity of 5000 pounds of potatoes
would cost approximately $4,000.
This is larger considerably than would
be practicable for a cooperative en-
terprise The plant would have to be
in "a potato growing country with
good railroad facilities.
