ATLANTA, April 7.-Strawstacks and
cottonseed are full of new sugar, Sc
cret of which was given to the seventy
ninth meeting of the American Chemi-
cal Society here today.
A formula for making it at about 5
cents pound, a gift by the United
States Government to industry, was
presented by DR.. w. T. Schneider of the
Bureau of Standards. It opens one of
natures greatest storehouses, hitherto
untouched by man because the sugar
formerly cost $500 pound.
The sweet is XyloSe-pronounced III
los Trees and many kinds of plants
abound with 1t. The chemists were in
formed that xylose probably is the third
most widely distributed organic COM
pound in nature.
Food Value Little Known.
Little is yet known of its food values.
Possibly persons with a sweet tooth may
eat all they wish, for preliminary ex-
periments indicate thai it is not as
simulated, but passes through the diges-
| tive system without apparent effect. A

potentialities are still to be fathomed,
from vast annual supply of a very
cheap straw material It has been
sought by industry for acid-making and
in some cases considered so useful that
price of SO cents a pound was rated
as economical. XyloSe was discovered
in 1886 when 1t was made from trees
In 1899 it was made from oat straw.
Saving of Huge Waste.
The Bureau of Standards formula
makes it of cotton seed hull bran. DR..
Schneider says the United States can
produce between a million and a mil
lion and a half tons of this bran year,
now nearly all waste product.
Investigation began two years ago I'M
der an act of Congress. Cooperating
we're Theodore Swami, president OF the
Swami Corporation of Birmingham, who
built and equipped an experimental sta
ton at Admission, Ala, the Alabama
Polytechnic Institute and the University
of Alabama.
The bran is washed with hot water
under pressure, and treated with diluted
sulphuric acid and lime and finally
whirled in a centrifugal. About half of
it goes into sugar. The remaining bran
is still useful, producing celluloSe for
clothing, carbon gums and potash salts.

a recurrence of a bladder complaint.

to take some solid food in addition to
the broths with which he has been
fed for the last week. The nouriShment

restoring his resistance to disease.

cheerful and at times there was a
