Prinville capital i becoming
interested in the muoh talked of
denaturized alcohol. All informa
tion ohtainalilxi on the auhject is
hemg deiouwd with the result
that lonvii iion grow atronger thai
h plant could t made to pay in
Crook county. Uaisoline is ex
(eiiHive here, hut notwithstanding
thin fact it is exwnisively used for
power purposeg.
The jKwsihiliiv f the endieM
lo wliii h lhi cheap power
n.a l- ut in i Iti- country is suit-
jut well calculated to arouse popu
lar inierest in the act to remove the
present tax on denaturized alcohol
Inning the .aft lew years many
laTixtna in Crook county have
i installed gasoline engines for one
purpose or other. In compe
tition with cheap fuel, such as
coal and wood, gasoline has not
made a marked advance, but in
region, remote from such fuels
and sources of cheap water or elec
tric power, it ha been extensively
adopted. Whether or not the rap
idly increased price of gasoline
nag justified by the danger of a
shortage on amount of the greatly
increased demand, ia a question.
The fi.ct remains that the price of
gnsoline has nearly doubled in a
few years' time, and the retail
price today varies from 20 cents
per gallon in the vicinity of the oil
regions, to from 40 to 50 cents in
this country.
The public has only just awaken
ed to the fact that the removal of
tlw; present tax of 100 per cent on
denaturized alcohol will make it
available aa a cheaper and in
many ways befter fuel than gaso
line. Denaturized alcohol may be
briefly described as pure grain al
cohol mixed with from 10 to 50
per cent of such liquids aa wood
alcohol, gasoline, etc., in order to
make it non-drinkable. At prices
ranging tro:n id cents to 4U cents
M-r gallon, it can be be made as a
by product at any place where po
tatoes, sugar beets, corn or grain
can be grown. For hoisting
pumping, power machinery, etc
wiiere other fuels are dear, this al
cohol will make possible a con
siderable reduction in expense,
Contrary to the popular belief,
li. wi 'i. the ealoritic power of a 1
cohol is considerably less than
that of gasoline, a gallon of pure
ethal alcohol having but 7000 heat
units in gasoline, so that for strict
lv heating puriioses alcohol is in
feri r to ga!-olin
But by mixing the pure alcohol
with fiom 10 lo 50 per cent wood
alcohol, gasoline, or turpentine,
the mixture is rendered non-drink
able and the calorific power great
ly increased over the plain alcohol.
In France and Germany, where
there has been no tax to impede
the development of alcohol en
gines and locomotives, experiments
have shown that a 50 per cent
mixture, having some 11,000 heat
units, gives the best results. For
a given power, the consumption of
this 50 per cent denaturized alco
hol is about equal to that of pure
gasoline, thus showing that 11,000
heat units in a gallon of denatur
lzed alcohol lurnish the same
amount of power as 18,000 heat
units in a gallon of gasoline, prov
ing a greater efficiency of the alco
hol when used in internal combus
tion engines. This efficiency Pro
fessor Musel of Berlin gives as
nearly one-third greater than that
of gasoline, which is probably due
to the expansive force of the water
vapor generated al the moment of
explosion. Thus, it is seen that iu
internal combustion engines de
naturized alcohol is the equal, i
not the superior, of gasoline.
K. A N. to cho and Umatilla, to
investigate the adaptability of the
soil and climate in the west end of
Umatilla county to the rubber
plant which grows in New Mexico,
Arizona, onthern Utah and south
ern Colorado, in abundance aays
the East Oregonian.
The plant 'flourishes in sandy,
hot soil and live for hundreds of
years without moisture or cultiva
tion in the sand hills of old Mexi
co. The trust is beginning it
cultivation of parts of southern
Colorado and Utah, and will in
vestigate different parts of the Pa
cific coast with a view to starting
rubber plantations ,.
Hilly, sandy, arid land, which is
too high and dry for other crops is
a favorite location for a rubber
plant field and after riding over
western Umatilla county, Mr.
Douglas will report to his com -.any
in New York, and if every thin is
favorable it is possible that ar
ranementa will be made to start an
experimental crop in this country.
According to Mr. Douglas, it re
quires about two years for the rub
ber plant to come to maturity and
good crop, well set on the
ground, will yield from 1100 to
$200 per acre, annually.
It is customary to extract the
juice from the plant and ship it in
quid form to the factories where
the plantation is located at a dis
tance from the factory, but where
the factory and field are close to
gether it is customary to ship to
the planU as they are harvested,
to the factory, where they are
crushed.
The rubber liquid is contained
in the stalks of the plants and as
they grow older the liquid becomes
more abundant although the foli
aee becomes less dense as the
plant grow older.
Little, if any cultivation is neces
sary and the plants take deep root
and seldom die. tt costs from $8
to $10 per acre to plant the land
to rubber. The favorite method is
to secure young shoots from other
fields and transplant them. How
ever, a good stand may be secured
from seed.

is to be built, according te A. B.
Hammond, president of the road.
But the work will not commence
before next year. Mr. Hammond
admits the intention of the AstorU
A Columbia River Railroad di
rectorate to add to that line so a
connection will be had between
Seaside and Tillamook.
The survey of the Corvallis &
Eastern extension has been com
pleted for some time. Idanha is
about 15 miles from the summit of
the Cascades, and entrance into
Central Oregon will be secured by
way of Haystack Pass. Thence
the route will be southeast to strike
the irrigated country of the Des
chutes. From there the line is al
most due southeast to and through
Harney Valley. Passing through
Crane Creek Gap and entering the
valley of the Malheur, it goes on to
Ontario. The grade eastward is
said to be less than 2 per cent,
while the westward is about 1$ per
cent.
The route of the Seaside exten
sion win De soutn along the JNe
canicum, across the divide below
that stream and thence into Ne-
halem, along the Nehalem River
continuing on to Tillamook. The
distance is 36 miles. That will
give the Hammond iuterests a line
from Portland of 154 miles, tap
ping the coast country in oppo
sition to the Pacific Railway &
Navigation Company and the Ore

with the line through Central Ore
