upon his product. This manufacturer is
one OF the biggest in the business. but
the American Chiole company. which is
a consolidation OF q number of chewing
gum manufacturers, is understood to do
even a larger business than the concern
which pays the federal treasury $4,000
per annum for the tax stamps on gum.
50 that it Is not surprising that Colonel
Thompson in his address before the Navy
league on Monday last should have stated
that the people OF this country pay more
for chewing gum than they do for sup
porting the army. Schedule B, which is
the schedule under which chewing gum
is taxed, produces about 10000 a year.
and the estimate is that OF this S2,5OO,OOo
at least, and possibly s., 1000, 900, is received
from the stamps that are placed upon
boxes OF chewing gum. II chewing gum
sells for cents package and each 81
worth thus sold pays the government a
revenue Of cents. the school children of
this country can probably figure out Just
how many million packages OF chewing
gum are consumed annually within the
United States. And. going further. It is
a nice problem for them to attempt TO
ascertain approximately. at least, how
much chicle is annually imported from
Mexico In order to supply this demand

inasmuch as the manufacturers Of high
explosives are reaping enormous profits
and as II costs the government a great
deal OF money to supervise the manufac-
ture and denaturation Of alcohol Il would
seem that this Il an excellent medium
for increasing the revenues OF the gov
eminent without detriment to any indus
try.
Alcohol Experiment Failure.
All attempts 20 produce alcohol on the
farms. which has been one Of the efforts
Of the Department Of Agriculture. have
come to naught thus far. for the reason
that the cost Of manufacture is so great
as to make 1t absolutely prohibitive. The
Department of Agriculture. for instance,
without any reference to the fact that the
law prohibits the installation Of a still
without the payment Of the stipulated
government tax, spent 81 900 In building
still and then made some experiments
to see what could be done in the manu-
facture OF alcohol from waste farm prod
ucts. Among other means OF producing
the spirit the department experts decided
on watermelons, It being the belief that
thousands OF these melons annually 90 70
waste on the farms where they are
grown. Consequently a carload of water
