WHAT "TUSSIC" REALLY Is.
Interesting Analysis of Sample by
North Carolina Chemist.

Not a few people, including some
Bamberg folks, might be interested
in an analysis of sample Of "tussic'
liquor submitted to a North Carolina
chemist recently. A seizure Of moon
shine whiskey was made by Burke
county, N. c., officers week or two
ago, and a sample of the concoction
was sent to J. S. Rogers, chemist OF
the Burke Tannery. The sample
was submitted without comment or
any indication of what the stuff was
or the use it was intended for, with
the request that a chemical anlysis
be made. The reply of Mr.. Rogers is
very interesting, and is as follows;
the reply being addressed to H. L.
Miller, chairman of the board of
county commissioners at Morganton,
N. c.:
1.-The sample of liquor which you
submitted to me a few days ago,
marked sample No. l NIL, has been
examined and analyzed and the re-
suits are given below:
Specific gravity 0.934
Causticity as caustic soda OF
Nitrogen calculated as am
mona ...- U.l
Alcohol as ethyl alcohol--35.9
"The following materials, if pres
ent at all, were in only very small
quantities: Tannin and potash. Chic
rides were present in very small
quantities. Methyl alcohol may be
present but was not determined.
LAS to my opinion as the nature
of this compound, you failed to In
form me the use for which it was in
tended. AS it contains practically
no tannin, it's use in this industry is
out of the question. The caustlc al
kill present would attack any mucous
membrane subjected to its influence,
and it's corrosive qualities would for
bid it's use in gasoline engine, al
though it does have some elements
of fuel value. As fertilizer 1t mas
only slight value, although its am
monia content and the presence OF
chlorides indicates the possible pres
ence of the material of manur1al
nature sometimes used in fertilizer
manufacture. 1t is undoubtedly a
germic.de and disinfectant. 1t could
be used in cleaning poultry houses
of lice and other vermin, and from
the animal nature of this solid con-
tent, 1 suspect this sample must have
been used for that purpose. In any
event it should be kept from all care
less and irresponsible persons as, II
swallowed by mistake, and methyl
alcohol is present, it might cause
blindness or other serious mental and
physical troubles. 1t has considera-
Bile fire hazard and should never be
exposed to open fame.
Trusting that this will give you
the information desired concerning
this liquor" etc.

a man came to a stream.

"No, SIR" replied the youngster,

and his horse were forced to swim.

"It amt" answered the youngster,

fore the conference was to assemble,
| learned that Mr.. Frank P. Brattan
of my own town was to be placed in
