TAKES KICK OUT OF WINE

San Francisco Chronicle.
Dealcoholized wine, beverage
wholly different from grape juice,
is an invention for which a patent
has been applied by Edward E.
Cothran and Mrs. Cothran, OF
Wright, Cal.
The process for which the patent
Is claimed is one whereby wine
produced in the ordinary way By
the natural fermentation of grapes,
is deprived of its alcohol, but re-
ta;ns it's natural color, bouquet and
flavor. Such wine, can be dcalcoho-
lized economically on large scale,
the extracted alcohol being saved
for lawful uses.
Samples of the new product
have been submitted to and re-.
ceived the commendation of eX-
perts, and the inventors believe
that demand for genuine wine
that has been dealcholized will be
extensive, as a result of prohibi-
ticn. Such sample submitted to
The Chronicle is a 10 per cent.
claret of the vintage of 1918, and
as regards taste and bouquet, it is
practically indistihguished from
similar wine that has not been
dealcoholzed.
The inventors further point out |
that apart from affecting the deal
cohoiization CT wine, thus allowing |
it's general use for beverage pur-
poses, the process will economical
ly apply to every type Of wine pro-
duced in the old Way, and will per-
nit of the manufacture of'cream of
tartar-an essential constituent of
baking powder-in the manner
heretofore in vogue instead of de-
that valuable industry.

SPANISH TO BE
TAUGHT IN FURMAN

Turman University will have
courses in the Spanish Language
and Latin American History and
Customs next session. The in
creasing trade relations between
the United States and the Latin
Republics of America have created
a demand for commercial Spanish
which Furman will meet. Dr.. Liv-
ingston T. Mays, a. graduate of
Baylor University, in Texas, and
for two years President of the
Cuban-American College, at Hava-
ma, Cuba, will be the instructor in
this department. DR.. Mays learned
Spanish not only from books but
from actual contact with the best
spoken Spanish in America. He is,
therefore we'll equipped to teach
the language. He has also been
American Consul for some years,
and is therefore equipped with
knowledge of trade relations and
trade needs which eminently fit him
to prepare students for successful
commercial work in relation to
Latin America.
