This establishment has a capac ity of 90 cords of hardwood a cay. the wood consumed being slabs crooked logs, treetops, aud hardwood offal from logging and lumbering opera- tions. From one cord of this material there is made ten gallons of wood alco- hol, 95% per cent. being pure, 200 pounds of acetate of lime, quickilme be- ing added for this purpose, and 50 bush- els of charcoal. Every product of the wood except the charcoal passes off in the form of gas and is reduced by dis- tillation. Some irreducible gas and a little tar product are used as fuel. Noth- ing is lost The alcohol is worth 60 cents a galion. The acetate of lime 18 worth two cen#s a pound, aud the char- coal Is worth ten cents a bushel. The value of the lime used Is worth not over one-fourth of the value of the acetate The value of the final product of the cord of refuse wood Is, therefore, not far from $14. The process is not expensive The plant, rugning at full capacity, will turn out a product dally worth $1 260 from material that has but Iltle commercial value in its crude form other Underground Garden.
