A NEW METHOD OF UTILIZ-
ING MOLASSES.

The December issue of the Aus
tralian Sugar journal made a
statement concerning a patent re-
~cently taken out by DR., Reed of
Cairns, North Queensland, in
which the claim is made that the
molasses may be so treated as to
make new products of consider
able value and products which
would have a ready sale among
sugar farmers as well as others.
No definite statement is made as
to the character of the process,
excepting that the material can
be largely reduced in weight.
1t will be recalled that Dr.
Geerlings. in his letters to the Lou
isiana Planter many months ago,
brought out this matter of soil
difving molasses SO that it could
be shipped in bags or even with
out containers. We are there
fore led TO doubt any advantage
to come from DR.. Reed $ method
of utilizing molasses unless we
learn something further about it.
Molasses as stock feed has come
into general use in Louisiana now
93br more than a generation, and
Mas come to be a very favorlte
ARTICLE all over the United States
when used for this purpose, that
is the manufacturing of stock
feeds involving various combina-
tons of some kind of hay, and cot
ton seed meal, the total forming a
very palatable and well balanced
Book feed ration. ''e~..
ANhe Hughes patent, developed
HABritish Guiana, involved the
ida of using the fine particles of
ba9asse such as would ordinarily
filter through the bagasse carriers,
mixing it with molasses in proper
proportions. Where there was
not enough of this finer, bran-llke
bagasse available, then the larg-
err particles could be ground up
fine, and Mr.. Hughes reported
the result of analyses that he had
made of his stock feed, showing
results of the final digestion OF,
over so per cent of the tibrous or
woody matter of the bagasse thus
incorporated in his molasses feeds.
The distinctive character of his
method is that the work is all
done at high heat, thus increas-
ing the absorbing capacity of the
bagasse to the highest practicable
point and rendering it thoroughly
absorbent of the molasses in his
mixing process. In this way the
final product was sufficiently dry,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 22,-An important rul- ing by the comptroller of the treasury today means a sub stantial increase in pay for thousands of officers and men of the national guard. This ruling IS to the effect that second and third enlistnents in the national guard entities these men to the same lnCrcas- cs in pay as are given for re- cnlistments in the regular army.
 This places the national guard on the same standing as to pay as the regular army establishment, and indicates that the guardsmen, in every respect, are to be a part of the regular army for the du- ration of the war, at least.

 That the question, to be .ii>cu>scd in the conference will be mostly those in which the United States and Japan are interested, was the state mcnt made by members of embassy today.
 It is declared that Japan stands willing to help America solve the shipping problem on the Atlantic ocean by sending her merchant fleet to these waters ii America will con tinue to send steel plate to Japan for the construction of merchant ships.
 The American government will probably agree to this ar rangement if Japan will give q sufficient guarantee that the new ships to be constructed will be devoted to war uses.
 The American government recently announced an cm- bargo on all steel ship plates excepting for strictly war purposes. As Japan has a vast fleet ot merchant ships under construction, and as she depends upon the United States entirely for this steel plate, the embargo threatens disaster to the Japanese ship wards.
