gallons per barrel; 10 per cent as.
phaltic residue, melting point 100,
400 gallons per barrel.
These results are very gratifying
as the refiners agree to duplicate in
practice in a full refinery the results
here obtained.
Based on January, 1918, prices at
mid-continent refining points, this
gives a market value for the refined
products from each barrel of crude
oil as follows:
Nine and 66-l00 gallons OF gaso-
line at II cents. STA; 1882 gallons
automobile oil, lubricating, at rs cts,
S4.S3; twenty pounds paraffin wax,

add for fifteen pounds OF sulphate of
ammonia at 3 cents, IS cents; total,

IF we accept the prices now in eff.

where the plants will be located, we
will receive approximately the fol.

twenty pounds paraffin wax at 1914
cents, $3.50; 40 gallons asphaltic

S10.47.
Values Are High
THE high value from this crude
oil comes from the good per cent OF
gasoline and the very high percent
age OF valuable lubricating oil; also
the twenty pounds OF best paraffin
wax. This wax has a melting point
OF over 100 degrees, which gives It a
high market value. Slack wax from
midcontinent crude has melting
point of from l12 to 11S degrees. The
higher the melting point the more
valuable in market"

CHEMISTRY AND MOTOR CAR.
Experts to Give Interesting TaikS
at Chemical Show.

The important part that chemists Of
America play In the making of automo-
biles will be demonstrated at the Chemi-
cal Exposition. which opens in, Grand

be various discussions on alloy steels
and other metals during the week, when
$4,000 chemists will meet and exchange
ideas.
~ Serious attention will be given to the
gasolene situation by the men who have
put America in the position as leader
in the chemical industry. The making
of gasolene by cracking processes will
be gone into. Cracking petroleum means
petroleum residues after the gasolene
and kerosene have been distilled off and
treating the residue according to va
rious processes, but usually with heat
and pressure. What happens. in a
chemical sense, is that the residue Is
knocked into big and little pieces. some
Of which are found to be gasolene
There IL a limit to cracking. and II
has been observed that after three times
In succession the residue refuses to
separate into gasolene and other bodies.
On further treatment It shows a dispo-
sition to go back into its original ele-
ments, carbon and hydrogen. The rule
seems to be about three times and out,
according to n leading chemist.
