FARMS TO TURN WASTETO CASH Industrial Use of Cornstalk Will Be Tried. By Times Special WASHINGTON., Sept. 9.—Two steps which may provide important financial relief for corn belt farmers, one devised by the Government and the other by private interests, will be taken within the next few week. Both are aimed to make effective industrial use of or cornstalks, a vast crop of which is wasted every year. The Bureau of Standards, utilizing a special congressional appropriation of $35,000 for study of additional uses of corn products, will open an experimental plant at Ames, lowa, in which cornstalks will be converted into wall board and other Interior building material. The experiments are designed to disclose the commercial feasibility of such undertaking.. At Danville, 111., a commercial plant will convert cornstalks into cellulose, to be used in making rayon, paper, explosives, etc. W. Jule Day, head of the concern, said today that it will be possible to produce cellulose from cornstalks much cheaper than at present, with use of wood pulp. This will make possible a utilization of much waste material in the corn belt, he said, and also lead to conservation of forest resources. New Detention Home By Times Special CROWN POINT, Ind., Sept. 9. Erection of Lake County’s new detention home here is to begin at once. The home will cost $63,100.

Charter Oak sy| Q. 75 Parlor Furnace Jt u

In principal, this great heater operates exactly like a furnace. It takes the cold air off of the floor, warms it between the fire-dome and the outer casing, and distributes it evenly over the room through the pierced ventilation holes in the casing. The large oval fire-dome is a practical smoke consumer. This and the ability to burn large lumps without chopping them helps materially to lower your coal bill. Absolutely the most scientifically constructed heater we have ever offered.
