Spent Yeast From BreWeries
Made Into Useful Articles

The spent yeast which collects in
breWeries and dlstilleries is mt
through a process which turns II out
IN the form Of buttons, doorben plates
anu khl1e handles. according to the
Popular Science Monthly. Formerly
thls leftover material was consid-
cred to be bothersome waste; now
1t is utilized, every bit of it. AS II
is gathered from the watts the Yeast
Is OF a dirty. gray-brown color. The
nrst operation Is to dye it, and then
TO work it over until it assumes the
form of powder and can be hot
pressed into any form. In this stage
1t Is called "ernolith." 1t may be
sawed. scraped, filed, drilled. en-
graved, turned to an edge and pol
