Iovva Experiment Station Finds New
Fso for Green Cobs.
Interesting experiments which have
been conducted at the experiment sta
tion of the Iowa agricultural college
show that alcohol can be made very
cheaply out of corn cobs.
One of the great problems of can
ners has always been the disposition
of the cobs from the corn, which soon
become sour and must be hauled
away daily. The discovery that al
cohol can be extracted from the cobs
means that what heretofore has been
a source of great expense can now be
converted Into n valuable by-product.
The tests show that there are 11
gallons of alcohol In a ton of green
cobs. . j a! '
The process of distillation Is sim
ple. A conveyor carries the cobs to
a grinding machine, where they are
reduced to a pulp. This pulp Is mixed
to the proper consistency by the use
of water and the mass In then brought
to a boll. After being boiled a short
time yeast Is put Into the pulp and
the whole mass Is allowed to ferment.
After that the usual process of dis
tillation Is followed.
The cost of manufacture Is stated
to be about 3 cents a gallon. When
the alcohol Is denatured this means
that alcohol for fuel purposes can be
sold for 20 cents a gallon and still
leave a good profit to the distiller
and handler. .-
