Sawdust, It Ih Found Tliat 59 Gallons
of Excellent Alcohol Can Do Ex
tracted From One Ton of Dust,
C. H. Adams of San Francisco, Is
forming a company for the purpose
of erecting plant at Aberdeen, Wn.,
for the diminution of alcohol from fir
sawdust.
The process Is known as the Claas
scn process, and Is a German Inven
tion. The alcohol Is distilled from the
sugar In the wood by fermentation.
A distillery operating at Hnttlnburg,
Miss., for some years has demonstrat
ed the feasibility of the profitable dlB
tlllatlon of alcohol from yellow pine
sawdust. In oider to ascertain If the
percentage of sugnr contained In fir
snwdust was high enough to permit
Its profitable utilization for the dlstll
lntlon of alcohol, one car of sawdust
was dlspatcht some months ago from
Aberdeen, Wash., to the Hattlsburg
distillery.
The result showed thot 69 gallons
of alcohol were obtained from 2000
pounds of sawdust. The alcohol sells
for about IT cents per gallon. If these
Jesuits are possible, a ton of sawdust
converted Into alcohol Is worth about
110.
The following article on denatured
alcohol, from Mines and Minerals, will
prove of Interest:
The possibility of saving a large
amount of money on the annual fuel
bill of the mining and milling Indus
tries of this country Is a subject well
calculated to arouse popular Interest
In the act to remove the present tax
on denaturlsed nlcohol.
During the past few years hundreds
of mining compnnles have installed
gasoline engines to run power and
lighting machinery. In competition
with cheap fuels such as coal and
wood, gasoline has not made a marked
advance, but In regions remote from
such fuels and sources of cheap water
or electric power, It hos been extens
ively adopted.
Whether or not the rapidly Increas
ed price of gasoline was Justified by
the danger of a shortage n account
of the greatly Increased demand, is a
question. The fact remains that the
price of gasoline has nearly doubled
In a few years' time and the retail
price today varies from 20 cents per
gallon In the vicinity of tho oil region.
to from 40 to 60 cents per gallon In
i most of tho mining camps of the
west.
I The publlp has only Just awakened
to the fact that the removal of, the
present tax of 100 pur cent on dena
tured alcohol will make It available
as a cheaper and In many ways bettor
fuel than gasoline.
DenatUilzed alcohol may be briefly
described as pure grain alcohol mixed
with from 10 to 50 per cent of such
liquids as wood alcohol, gasoline, etc.,
In order to make It non-drinkable.
At prices ranging from 15 to 30 cents
per gallon It can be mode as a by
product anywhere potatoes, sugar
beets, corn or grain can be grown.
For pumping, hoisting, power ma
chinery, etc., at Isolated mines, where
other fuels are dear, this alcohol will
make possible a considerable reduc
tion in expense.

less drugs that I could not eat, and

that Improvement began at once, and

Shepard Is Issuing Instructions which

In explaining the system, which the
upplegrowers' manager says Is In
vogue In California canneries and
which he thinks Is the best that has
yet been devised, he Ktates that three
circular holes are cut In a board 214,
3 and 3 inenhs In diameter and the
board placed In front of the sorter,
being suspended within easy reach of
the hand. As the apples are wiped
their size can be quickly determined
by the aid of the board and they can
he placed In S, 3 M, 4 or 4 V4 tier boxes
ul once. Instead of all being thrown
In one box for the packer to resort
All apples larger or smaller than
the holes in the board go Into special
boxes provided for them.

THE CHIEF OBJECTION
That has frequently been raised against ready-to-wear clothes
by fastidious men has been the fact that the patterns in ready
made clothes are usually common. This is quite true of the
ordinary ready made, but in
Stein-Bloch & Kohn Bros'
Ready-to-Wear Clothing
carried by us, the patterns are mostly identical with those
shown by the highest priced custom tailors and many of them
are original and exclusive with this house.
The variety is so large that only a limited number of gar
ments are ever made from one fancy pattern.
Pendletonians and Fair visitors are invited to
note our beautiful window displays of this Fall and
