IS NO LIMIT TO FARM ALCOHOL

SECRETARY WILSON SAYS FARMERS CAN CONTROL SOURCE OF LIQUID. SOME FACTS TO CONSIDER Alcohol Can Be Produced From Corn Tops, Sugar Beets and Sweet Potatoes. Washington, Feb. 26. Secretary Wilson says that if the fanning interests of the country can be made to understand how vitally they are interested in the free alcohol bill, the pressure of public sentiment "will be irresistable. He calls attention to the fuel problem which the country will soon have to face. , Coal1 is a stored product and must give out in time. The forests are disappearing. The same is true of mineral oils and natural gas. Eventually the world will be compelled to look to agriculture for its fuel, light and motive power. "It seems to me," says Secrtary Wilson, "that through the medium of alcohol agriculture can furnish in the most convenient form, the necessary source of supply. There is no limit on the quantity of alcohol that may be produced from corn tops, potatoes, sweet potatoes' and yams, and from sugar beets. Looking at , the question from the geographical; point of view, the northern: states could depend upon the white potato, the southern' stacs on the yam and1 the western on the sugar beet. .The ex-: tensive irigation projects now carried forward by the government vjili result in (watering land that .will proT duce' sugar beets more profitably, perhaps than any other crop. ' The molasses can readily be turned into alcohol.';' ' ' ' An acre of land which produces 50 bushels of corn will furnish ,1,060 pounds of fermented material; counting both starch and sugar. Fortyfive per cent of this will be absolute alcohol or 382 pounds, which would yield 140 gallons of commercial alcobol. , ' Stalks of Indian corn at the time when the grain lis sufficiently ripe to be perfectly sound, contain a large quantity of starch. "If the stalks of corn could be utilized at that time for the. manufacture of alcohol,V j-.ec-retary.,, Wilson j adds, - "tb'ey... would produce a quantity which would be almost incredibly large. V There would be ' approximately ten tons of stalks ' to the acre of corn',1 yielding 2,400.' pounds of fermentable' matter, or 170 gallons of commercial alcohol. This is on 'a basis of fifty bushels of, corn to the acre. The average yield of corn is only about half that, but the heavier corn lands of the country that would, be used for growing corn for alcohol average easily , fifty bushels to the acre. , , "It is safe to say that the average amount of starch and sugar which goes to waste in the stalks of corn would annually make 100 gallons of commercial alcohol to the acre. When we consider the vast number of acres of corn, in this country, approximately 100,000,000, it is seen that the quantity of alcohol that is lost in the stalks is so large as to be almost beyond the grasp of our conception. "We raise " potatoes for' human food and for scarcely any other purpose; m We plant the potato that. has the ! finest flavor, independently of its B A RG A I N S ;I N ' MEDICINE. .)it .V. j ,. i . Av woman once wrote us that1 she was not going to buy ! Scott's Emulsion any more because it cost too much. Said she could get soine other emulsion for less money. Penny .vise and pound foolish. Scott's Emulsion costs more because it is worth more costs more to make. We could make Scott's Emulsion cost less by using;' less ' oiL Could take less care, in making it, too.

yield per acre. When we are raising potatoes for alcohol these considerations need not be regarded. The variety that would yield the greatest number of bushels would be planted. Where potatoes are used as food for cattle as in the case in many foreign countries, varieties of this kind are planted and there would be no difficulty whatever in doubling the 255 gallons per acre received from the present average yield of potatoes. So it would be within bounds to say that 500 gallons of alcohol can be had from an acr eof potatoes." Galveston's Sea Wall makes life now as safe in that city as on the higher uplands. E. W. Goadloe, who resides on Dutton St., in Waco, Tex., needs no sea wall for safety. He writes: "I have used Dr. King's New Discover? for Consumption the past five years and it keeps me well and safe.

BARE SHOULDER STRAPS. Old Kansas Soldier Has a Pair Captured at Waynesboro from : j Wheeler. 'Iola, Kansas, Feb. 26. The death of General Joe Wheeler recalled to an old Iola soldier the fact that among his most prized possessions of the war are the shoulder straps worn by General Wheeler during the latter part of the war. At Waynesboro, Ga., in a hot fight, the Ninth Ohio cavalry were held in line for; an hour while the Confederates were shelling them from the safe vantage point of a ihick wood. Finally word came to carry the woods, The cavalry went ' .1 It ' 1 ' 1. '' 3 . :1 J ln.wun a yen ana soon nau it cieareu. The Confederates, evidently were not expecting such a sudden dash and thpy left their headquarters' equipment in the hands of the Union troops. Among the effects were General Wheeler's shoulder straps, which the; Jola man captured and it would take a lot of money to'bu them.

'l THE WORLD TO FOLLOW SUIT Also Proposes to Increase His Coun- , trymen's Height by Chairs and . i Gymnastic Exercises. Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 26. Baron Kanahiro Takaki, the surgeon general ! of the Japanese army and . navy, who created a sensation here by outlining his plans for increasing the height of the men of Japan, announced; to the students of Jefferson Medical college today that English is destined in the 'near future to becomei the, language of Japan, and later of the world. j1 Four-fifths of the Japanese; boys are now studying English,' he said. "It is the language most admired in my country, and is destined' in the near' future, to become the official language of Japan, and will soon be the universal language of the world,?' I Baron Takaki 's theory on height changing is founded upon the fact that, the shortening of Japanese men as compared with, men of other nations is chiefly in the legs. lie look ed about for a cause and decided that from boyhood Japanese are accus tomed to sitting on mats, either di rectly, upon their feet or in a manner that , completely compressed the legs, and that this custom is responsible for their lack of leg development.

MAYOR ASSAULTS CHIEF OF POLICE HEAD OF EAST CHICAGO'S j FORCE IS FELLED WITH SINGLETREE. BLOW CRACKS HIS SKULL Knocked Senseless After Drawing Revolver on Executive of the City. Chingo, Feb. 26. Mayor W. t. Hale of East Chicago, deposed his chief of police, Thomas Cohroy, witji a Hickory singletree Saturday anjl Conroy's doctors" believe his skull is fractured and that he may die. Conroy is in a hospital. Mayor Hale has not been arrested. , Conroy, wh was formerly an, ardent political friend of Hale, was a mill hand and had a high temper. ..His brother, William Conroy, was killed in the memorable Tollestoh club row some years ago.; When Hale was elected mayor of East Chicago for the second time, Conroy was his trusted lieutenant, and Mayor Hale appointed him marshal, with chief of police powers. Conroy ruled the city police domains, including both East Chicago and Indiana Harbor, with a high hand. He was involved in numerous rows and was fined last November for breaking up a primary election whose officers opposed the . nomination of Hale. So indignant were the citizens of j East Chicago'at Conroy 's act that though the town is normally, over whelmingly republican, the democrat ic ; candidate, Edward Debriae, was swept into the mayor's chair by the landslide. J Althbuglij Conroyj had fbjeen 'dis charged Hale retained him in office until the official acts of the chief of police became so flagrant that Hale wrote Conroy a litter peremptorily demanding his resignation. Conroy answered it' in person, entering Hale's private office and demanding to know if Hale had written the letter. j"Yes, and I mean every word of it," ' Hale said. ' Get out of town within five hours or I '11 put you where the dogs can't bite.' Infuriated at this answer, Conroy drew, a revolver,, but as he was' about to aim it. the mayor seized a buggy singletree leaning against his ,; desk and brought ;it down ,on Conroy 's head f i The polieeman. dropped: uncohscious. It is charged that Hale thpn threw Conroy out of tne. office. James, Rogers has been apppinted temporary chief pending official, action.

TIRED OF LIFE L From Dreadful Pains From Wound I on Foot System All Run Down After Six Months' Agony Not Able to Work Completely Cured in Two Weeks MIRACULOUS CURE BY CUT1CURA REMEDIES ! "Words cannot speak highly enough for the Cuticura Remedies. I am now seventy-two years of age. My system had been all run down. My blood was so bad that blood poisoning had set in. I had several doctors attending me, so finally I went to the hospital, where I was : laid up for two" months. My foot and ankle were almost. hAvnnrl recocrnition. Dark piood nowed out of wounds in many f laces, and I was bo disheartened that thought surely my last chance was slowly leaving me. As the foot did not improve, you can readily imagine how ; I felt. I ) was simply . disgusted nd tired of life. I stood this pam which was dreadful, for six months, and during this time I was not able to wear a shoe and not able to work. j "Some one spoke to me about Cuticura. The consequences were. I bought i a set of the Cuticura Remedies of one of; my friends who was a drug-" gist, and the praise that I gave after the second application is beyond description ; it seemed a miracle, for the Cuticura Remedies took effect immediately. I washed the foot with the Cuticura Soap before applying the Ointment and , I took the Resolvent at the same time. After two weeks' treatment my foot was healed completely. People who had seen my foot during my illness and who have seen it since the cure, can hardly believe their own eyes." ! - ' Robert Schoehhauer, v Aug. 21, 1905.. Newburgh,N,Y.
