What Is AlrwaetT According to the pharmacopoeia of the lulled Plates, eighth decennial revision, alcohol, or. as it is techniaclly termed, oolugue sph-lts. is a liquid composed of shout K.i er cent by weight, or about IH.t per cent by volume, of absolute ethyl alcohol, and about 7.7 per rent by weight of water. This is the equivalent in proof of IB. a, or practically 190 per rent. It is a transparent, colorless, mobile and volatile liquid, of a alight agreeable odor and- a burning taste.

It should be kept In well -closed vessels, in a cool place, remote from lights or fire. f For the purposes of this article, which '.proposes to discuss only the process of the manufactare and denaturing of alcohol and It uses. It may be stated that this char acter of alcohol la made, from com or ' iiotatoes. or other starchy or saccharine raterials. The f rrst step rn the proportion of corn, giotatoes or other starch products for dls- nlllatlon is to convert the starch which 1 these products contain, and which Is not J fermentable, into a fermentable substance. i Te obtain tlua result when corn is used it is first ground Into meal, then cooked by subjecting It te a high temperature and pressure. Iurlng this process the starch becomes partly dissolved and partly gel atinised, and at the end of the working period, after a proper reduction in the temperature has been effected malt is In troduced to convert the soluble starch into sugar. In which state It Is readily ferment able. Technically thia conversion ia known as saochartflcation: its production being affected by the action rnn the starch of the diastase contained in the malt, yielding maltose and dextrin.

This meal is placed in the vacuum cooker, which is a cylindrical steal vessel made of heavy steel plate mounted longitudinally on substantial oast iron stands, depending upon it capacity or slae. The Interior of this cooker is fitted with caat iron stirrer arms attached te a steel shaft w hich makes about sixty revolutions per minute. The team enters at the bottom by means of pipes conducting it from a manifold or heater at the aide. Attached to each pipe at Its point of entrance is a -check valve of special design to spray tlie steam through the mash and to effect thorough steaming and consequent perfect dissolution of the starch. A thermometer for regulating the temperature and a water gauge are placed In the bead. The operation consists of first filling Into the cooker the requisite amount of water for each bushel of meal. This water la gen erally supplied from the hot water tub, the tame being a recaptacle for storage of the hot water overflow from the condenaers. Its temperature, to hasten the operation and to economise on steam ran be from 140 to ISO Fahrenheit; If hotter It Is apt to lump the meal. A scale for weighing the meal which Is provided with a hopper of a capacity equal to one charge of the cooke." ta placed above the latter. From this hop per the xneal la conducted by a apout and fed Into the cooker through the manhole, during which proceeding the stirrer la in constant motion. After the manhole has been cloaed the steam valve la opened by degrees and the cooking continued, the agi. tatkm of the maab being likewise continued until a pressure of fifty-five pounds or about ano degrees haa been attained, at which point tthe dissolution of the starch la complete. The pressure is relieved by Midwest Life Items Mr. Pliny H. Graves of fihelton. caahier of the Moianrr bank at that place, died on the ltrth of November.

The thorough mixing of the malt with the mash Is allowed to continue for about five minutes, after which it is drawn Into the drop tube, near the cooker. Tills receptacle is fitted with a stirrer and completes the mashing, following which the product Is pumped through the mash coolers, where It Is re duced to the proper temperature for fer mentation. In the preparation of the potato mash the lime method of operation is pursued, except that the potatoes are first waahed to remove any adhering earth and then charged Into the cooker, whole. "While the mash is being filled into the fermentation vata, after leaving the mash cooler, foment or yeast is added to induce fermentation. This yeast is built up by successive stages from mother yeast, com monly called start yeast, which is either of the so called pure cultum variety, consti tuting a particular and especially cultivated species of yeast aa most effective for alco holic fermentation, or by spontaneous or hop yeast, produced by growth of yeast cells originating in the air.

It is then allowed to stand for eighteen to twenty hours during which time the mash takes on a wine sour, by the growth of a la'ic cid ferment, which protects" the mother yeast from Infection by suppressing other lid species of yeast and bacteria Inter fering with the termenta'lon. Care must be taken during the souring process by covering the yeast tub and gardlng against an undue reduction of temperature In the yeast room to prevent he temperature of the mash from falling below 12 degrees, at which temperature the highly injurious butyric and aoettc acid fermentation are developed. ( Mllsf af Mar Masai. The sour maah Is then cooled by circu lating water through the coil and thor oughly agitating the whole until reduced te sixty degrees. The so-called yeast dona previously prepared from the start yeast Is now added and thoroughly mixed with the maah. Aa a result of the yeast fermen tation effected during the next tea or twelve houra a temperature of eighty-four degrees will 1 attained, when further fer mentation la discontinued. It is then cooled to sixty-five degrees, at which temperature It ia maintained by circulation of water through' the cull and stir In g It until It is to be conducted to the fermenting vata, where fermentation of the sweet mash at once begins. When the yeast ferroentatloi has pro gressed to eighty-four degrees, and before stirring and cooling, the rich top yeast, or stock yeast, is removed In proportion to ton gallons to H bushels of maah and preserved for Subsequent use. The fermentattng period covers about seventy-two houra. Thia fermented prod uct ia called in distilling parlance the "beer." From the fermenting vat, which Is fitted with a brass valve at the bot tom, operated by a lexer st the top pipe manifold into the beer well. From the beer well the beer pumps discharge it lnte the beer beater of the distilling apparatus or upper chamber of the beer auU. At the same time live steam la blown into the bottom chamber of the beer still so that the beer in working down through the different compartments in the still is deprived, by the bulling which ensues, of f aloobol.

The standard denaturing mr teris.1 consists of ten parts of approved wood alcohol and one-half pint rf benxine to every KK) parts of alcohol to 1 de natured. The denaturing is done in suitable tanks or cisterns under government supervision. The alcohol. after being denatured, is then withdrawn into suitable approved packages, which, after being projier'.y la- be-led and stamped, are ready to be put on the market as a finished rroduet. The distiller must provide all required tanks and cisterns for denaturing, aa well aa providing the denaturents themselves.

The only way that the manufacture of alcohol can lie undertaken In communities Is for the establishment of one still In some central location and then the farmers can bruig their corn, potatoes or other products to be made Into alcohol and then, after the stuff is denatured by the govern ment officers, the product can be divided among those participating in the enter prise. As a rule it is cheaper for the users of small quantities to buy the denatured al cohol rather than to participate in its man ufacture.

Q What Is the National Correxposition? A The National Corn exposition ia a scientific movement to teach farmers how to make two blades of grass grew 'where but one blade grew before. Q Where Is the National Corn exposition lo he held? A. The National Com exposition is to be held at the Auditorium In Omaha, on De remlier Inclusive. Q Why Is the National Corn exposition held In Omaha? A. The National Corn exposition is held In Omaha this year because Omaha is the center of the great Com Belt and can lie reached with less expense and difficulty by a larger number of jiersons interested In the production bf com than any otlier available city. Q. 'Who are encaged In the promotion and maintenance of the National Com ex position? A. The executive management of the Na tional Corn exposition is vested in the hands of business men of high standing and large affairs, capable of discharging the various duties given them with the ut most skill and satisfaction. Q. By whom is tlie scientific research and instruction of the National Corn expo sition carried on? A. By the highest authorities and the most notable experts in the Culled States, England, Canuda and Mexico. .Has the government given Its en dorsement to the National Cora exposition? A. Tes, the government of the United States has given the most emphatic en dorsement to the National Com exposition. President Roosevelt has spoken in approval of it and has instructed his Country Life commission to visit Omaha and participate in the exposition; Secretary of Artie ult ure Wilson has placed at the disposal of the National Com exposition C. A. Shamel, his expert in the bureau of plant Industry, and has sent to Omaha one of the largest al j cohol stills for use In making practical demonstrations during the exposition. Q. Will actual Instruction be given those attending the National Com exposition? A. Tes. regular class room work will be carried on by these scientists, and men. women and children will m given careful training in the various methods of Inten sive farming by practical demonstrations. 1 What results are expected to accrue from these courses of study. A. The result that those aim receive this training will go back to their farms and at once begin putting into practical operation the lessons they have learned, and that next year they and olhera whom they have Influenced will attend the Com exposition again and receive other leasuns, and that this will continue a practical system of ed ucation in intensive farming until it will have spread all over the country and be come thoroughly established. Q. What then Is expected to be the re sult? A. Tlie result will be that farmers will know how o till and fertilise their soil and how to select and treat their seed so as to multiply manifold their harvest and In like ratio increase the value of their tand and their annual income. Q. Is com the only grain to be exhibited at the National Com exposition? A. No, every other grain grown where corn Is grown is to be exhibited at the Na tional Com exposition. Q -WIll tlie same scientific tests be made In these other cereals as are made In com? A. Tes, and by an expert in each kind 9f grain. Q Will there be any other kinds of ex hibit besides grain? A. Tes, every kind of grass grown for hay or stock feed in the com belt will be exhibited, as also will farm Implements and foods made from cereals. Q Will this complete the National Cora exposition ? A. No, in addition to this school in in tensive farming there will be a domestic science institute In the hands of the most capable women scientists in this line of work, and this domestic science work will form one of the significant and extensive departments of the exposition. W How will It be conducted? A. In classes. Regular class room in struction will be given dally. Classes Will be organized and taught by the women sclentsts and an elementary education in this important department of woman's life work will be given. Q And does this complete the Nations Corn exposition? A. No. Fourteen state agricultural col leges are sending exhibits and experts to show what they are doing to further the campaign of education of which this expo- ! alllon is tlie outgrowth. ' I Q.
