statement Of Elton r., Darling, Phi.

nationwide comment by his an

am intensely interested in the
products to be derived from the corn
cob" said Prof. Darling. "The pro-
duction Of syrup or xylose is the
sugar In the corn. 1t is what the cat
tie and stock want when they eat
corn. BY eating the cob they get but
five per cent Of the xylose. The syrup,
which Is for animals and made by
treating the cob, gives 25 per cent
more. II seems practical to me that
this added syrup should be used
when the cobs are at present going
to waste. ~
''I expect to simplify the process
Of extracting this syrup so that the
farmer can make it on his farm. I
have carried my experiments far
enough to know that the cattle like
1t and want it."
referring to the production Of
dyes from corn cobs, Prof. Darling
exhibited black dye that he had
obtained from furfoil, chemical OBJ
tanned from cobs. 1t is sulphur
dye, deep and, fast, and he said that
it can be made proftably. He has
obtained other colors. but has not as
yet developed them to the degree Of
stability which he has reached with
the black dye.
That corn cobs have many other
uses was shown In his statement that
the cellulose from them can be made
into q material that will serve as a
filler for phonograph records, can
be treated and used In the making
Of mo 6tionv- picture films or used be-
tween wood as sound prooflng, as
