over 100 uses for the sweet po-
tato, from which he produced tap
ioca, molasses, dyes, coffee, starch
and flour.
His researches into the posi-

sweet potatoes attracted the at

invited him to move them to Or

he was receiving at Tuskegee, but
DR.. aCrver declined.
He likewise declined to accept
500 which a manufacturer sent
him in acknowledgement of one
of his peanut discoveries which
the manufacturer had put to use.
Deeply religious, he explained
his refusal to commercialize his
discoveries by saying, "My dis
coveries come like a direct reve-
lation from God. The idea and
the method of working out new
product come all together" he
continued. "In half an hour after
the idea was REVEALED to me, I pro-

ors during his lifetime, not the
least of which was an offer from
Henry Ford to equip a laboratory
for him and finance his expert

born, Mich, and experiment on
synthetic rubber. nj 1923 he was
awarded the Spingarn Medal by
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
for discoveries that would change
the economic lief of the South.
In 1895 he VISA appointed a col
laborator in the Bureau of Plant
Industry of the Department of
Agriculture, in the division of

Royal Society of Arts, London.
And in New York City in 1889,
he was awarded the Roosevelt

At his death, President Roose-
welt headed a long list of dis
