On June 7, 19)6, congress ^passed a law removing tbe internal revenue tax of $2 07 per ga lun on grain alcohol which had been properly denatured or rendered unfit ior drinking purposes by the addition of certain materials, such as wood alcohol, benzine or py ridine. It was hoped that by the re moval of this tax alcohol could be ob tained cheaply enough to compete with petroleum for light and fuel. The demand for such alcohol can be read ily seen when we note that approxi mately 3.000,000 gallons of gasoline are consumed daily in the country and that the increased demand for it, due to the development of the modern ex plosion motor, has doubled its price in the last ten years. Indiana and Ohio oils contain only about 5 per cent of gasoline and the per cent of the lighter distillate in California and Texas crude oil is very low. The supply of gasoline therefore seems to be limited, but the demand increasing. Alcohol, it has been demonstrated, can meet this demand. Furthermore, the annual consumption of kerosene in the United States approximates 1.- 000,01)0,000 gallons, three-fourths o< which arc probably used by the far mers. Since one gallon of alcohol i» equivalent to two gallons of kerosen« for lighting purposes, .'»75,000.000 gal lons of alcohol could be used on tht farms of this country each year. This would require for its production 140.- 000,000 bushels of corn, or 5,000,000 acres, an increase of 5 per cent over that now grown. If made from pota toes, this 375,000,000 gallons of alcohol would require 450,000.000 bushels, or 5,000,000 acres, an increase of 60_per cent over that now produced, The consumption of alcohol present amounts to but 16,000,000 gallons per year. Ethyl or grain alcohol is a natural product, formed by the fermentation of various kinds of sugar through the agency of yeast organisms. Since starch is readily convertible into su gar by either natural or artificial means, materials which contain nota ble quantities of either starch or su gar may be utilized for making alco hol. The more important sources of alcohol are the cereals, potatoes, mo lasses and fruits. In France alcohol is chiefly made from the sugar beet, in Germany from the potato, and in America from corn. A bushel of corn will yield approximately 2i gallons oi 95 per cent alcohcl; a bushel of pota toes three-fourths of a gallon and a bushel of apples one-third of a gallon In the large distilleries it cost* about 17 cents t? manufacture and place on the markrt one gallon of al cohol. and the cost of the raw material used brings this o'dinarily to approx imately 30 centti. Allowing for the necessary profit, i’r.ohol will reach tbe consumer at about ID cents per gallon But alcohol at 40 cents can compete with kerosene at it cents for lighting purposes, since alcohol has twice the illuminating value of kerosene, and in competition kerosene can never de mand more than one-half the market price of alcohol. For making cheap alcohol a cheap concentrated raw product and a well equipped plant are necessary. The plant should have a capacity of at least 100 gallons per day, the ccst of such a plant being in the neighbor hood of $10,000. No such plant can operate successfully on waste pro ducts alone, especially if such are to be obtained for only a brief part of the year, as, for example, waste fruits. There must be some more staple pro duct as a basis, with the waste ma terials handled as a side issue. For a staple in the Northwest we mart look to potatoes or sugar beets, and dam aged grain when it can be scented, on which materials, together with various waste products, a plant could- be op erated throughout the year. Because of the persistent ir.quiries relative to the merits and dtmrrits oi the wheat known locally as “Alaska,’’ the Idaho experiment stition has given the wheat a milling t'ist and subjected the flour so obtained tJ chemical examination and baking tests. The results of these tests, to gether with such other information concerning the wheat as could. be gathered from reliable sources, have 'just been published in bulletin form. The wheat is apparently of the same variety that is known in southern Eu rope as Poulard, or Egyptian. It is used there for making macaroni and other pastes, and the flour made from it is said to be in demand by certain French markets. Under field conditions the wheat has not made any phenomenal yields, averaging this year perhaps no better than ordinary winter wh4at. The ker nels are large and plump and compare favorably in appearance with much cf the wheat that is raised in northern Idaho; because of their size and shape they are easily broken, however, and care must be exercised in threshing to prevent this. The results of the milling tests «how that no particular difficulty is met with in grinding the wheat. The flour secured is described as sharp and granular, and is capable of mak ing an excellent quality of biscuits, muffins, cakes, etc. When made into light bread, color, flavor, texture and size of loaf were noted. Tn color the bread was darker than that baked from Turkey red. but decidedly lighter than that baked from little club flour. Flavor and texture were pronounced good. In size the loaves were inferior to those baked from Turkey red, but compared very favor shiv in this respect with those baked from little club flour. The bulletin mav be serurrd by addressing the Ex- n’riment Station, Moscow. When a woman goes into a dry goods store, and Is pleased with every* thing shown her, It is a sign that she has no intention of buying. But If she finds fault with everything, she Intends to buy that day.
