GET EXPLOSIVE FROM FLOWER
British Scientists Discover That Bios
som Of Mahua Tree In India 10
Rich In Aeetone.

The munition output Of India has in
two years been increased thousand
fold, mainly through the discovery that
one Of India's commonest blossoms, the
flower of the mahua or mhowra tree,
contains acetone In quantity. This tree
Is widely known to all travellers In
Britain's Asiatic empire, but its use ~
a base for explosives Is at least one
thing new under the sun, says the
Scientific American.
When the war broke out, acetone.
which forms the chief ingredient OF
cordite, was extracted mainly from
wood, maize. and starch and the Brit
ish admiralty erected a great factory
for the process of acetone recovery
from starch. But fortunately two Eng
lish scientists in Hyderabad discovered
that the mahua flowers contained ace
tone in larger proportions than 1t u
found in any other vegetable substance
that this inoffensive bloom was ten
time richer in the material In Ques
ton than any known wood. In fact,
the director general of ordnance for
India reports that the mahua is by
all odds the best source for acetone
known.
Manufacture on large scale Is now
under way and it is whispered that the
abundance Of munitions with which
the British forces in Mesopotamia ap-
pear to be blessed is to be attributed
to the new discovery.
