TWO WAYS OF MOoNSHINlNG
"GiIiics" and Distressed Gentlemen
Make Whisky of Molasscs.

There are two methods of distllling
spirits namely. the ''pot-still' and the
"patent-still." The pot-still. invented
by Coffey, has the recommendation
of producing pure spirit in one
complete operation.
rot-still spirit, on the other hand,
takes a long time to make and Is not
drinkable for at least five years In
fact, is poisonous This is due to the
preponderance OF such noxious ele-
monts as fusel oil and aldehydes
which II holds in the solution Yet 1t
is these poisons which give whisky its
characteristic flavor. But when the
whisky has been matured for several
years they are greatly modified ana
practically harmless.
Alcohol may be manufactured from
anything which contains starch or
sugar Such materials as molasses
rotten potatoes, timber and certain
vegetables have been used. Patent
spirit is principally made from maize
raw grain and small proportion of
malt. The best pot-still whisky is
made from malt. raw oats. barley ana
rye.
In the hie HANDS of Scotland and on
the isolated islands of the western sea-
board the Illicit distillation of spirits
is not by any means a lost art. The
distiliers are, as rule, "Eillies"

OIL MARKET QUOTATIONS..
Tho Diffcrcncc.

Wichita newspapers have always
been strong boosters for the home
town. But evidently they have not
learned lesson and evidently are too
eager to boost for something that here
In Tulsa would be taboo. For instance.
the Wichita Eagle has swell story
from its point of view about the lta-
vert OH company having acquired n
schoolhouse lot from "A widow woman,
and said lot is between the Gypsy and
the Empire In the best proven terri
tory over at Towanda
Old-timcra would know from eNpe-
rlence that this means much grief Tor
adjoining property owners. II is al
most n cinch that the RaNert OH com
pany will crowd the line and nj nny
rate IL breaks up gentlcmcn's agree
ment between the Empire and the
Gypsy to hold back drilling on this
side of the lease until pipe line facil-
tiles are better than now. and 1t means
further that lot Of wells Will be
drilled on a small space and that at a
time when pipe IL scarce and should
be conserved.

STEEL THAT WON'T TARNlSH
New Metal I~an N'oy Containing 13
Per Cent of Chromium.

A steel that does not stain or tar
nish is one of the latest new materials
and will he welcomed by the house
wife as a real boon. II is called
stainless steel" and from IL table
cutlery is being made which not only
takes q beautiful polish. but which
preserves this appearance under all
circumstances. 1t also keeps sharp
edge for long time. Foods or ordi-
nary acids do not tarnlsh 1t and it is
fast becoming very popular. ITO be
able TO use ordinary knives or forks
and by simply washing them, even
without drying them. TO have them
maintain their original brightness is
eagerly welcomed By the diligent and
particular housewife.
The new steel was discovered in
England. but is now being made In
the United States and sold as table
cutlery. II Is what IL commonly
called an alloy steel-that is. 1t diff
fers from ordinary steel in that 1t
contains n special element or metal.
In this case Il is chomium, which Is
mainly responsible for bestowing the
stainless and rustless properties. BY
incorporating from IL to l3 per cent
OF this metal in mild carbon steel the
new properties are obtained, An Eng
lish metallurgist in gathering to-
gether some rods OF steel which had
laid long time In his laboratory
noticed that while most OF them were
badly rusted or stained. a few were
as bright as when originally made
This led TO the present discovery and
manufacture of the steel.
The new steel is more expensive
thnn the old which usually appears In
the everyday table knife, Its advan-
tages and lasting properties arising
from its use more than offset the eX-
ira cost. This fact that II does not
tarnish. stain or corrode augments IL,
value decidedly. IL Is supplanting not
only the old cutlery. but also the
plated. Its possibilities, however, are
by no means limited to cutlery. one
can readily imagine to what count
ess uses a stainless and rustless metal
IAN be put.

thrown out OF employment at the end
of the shooting season. and distressed
gentlemen farmers have been known
TO retrieve their fallen fortunes by
erecting still in some outlandish
part of their farms.
In Ireland numerous districts of
Connemara and the wilder parts Of
Ulster and Munster are devoted TO the
making OF ''potheen." The "distillers"
are very rarely caught notwithstand-
ing the vigilance of the police and the
revenue officials.
But such Illicit whisky Is of very
poor quality. 1t is principally made
from molasses. as the distillers have
not the time TO go thru the elaborate
process of mailing and mashing. The
greatest difficulty Is also experienced
in maturing the spirits. In fact II is
easier 10 hide keg from the police
than 1t is from ones own neighbors!

OF Old Glory's Spangled Bars,
Must feel a heart beat quicken
When the war clouds round her thick
Ell.
/ Ills the Flag of Freedoms right
Against the Lust of Despot's might.
Can fight be fairer then?
Answer now! ye free born men.
