SCIENCE PRACTICES THRIFT
Science is making possible tre-
mendous strides in elimination of
waste. We are told that the farm-
ers in the United. States produce
each year 16,000,000 tons of corn-
stalks from the waste of which it
would be possible to manufacture
8,000,000 tons of paper. From these
same farms come waste straw that
science can convert into tar, Illumin-
ating gas, wood, alcohol, oxalic acid,
straw board and otheri products.
High authority recently made public
the estimate of 61,500,000,000 as the
amount that could be added to the in-
come of the American farmer each 14
year with the complete absorption of
waste materials from the farm
An illustration of these vast
bilities was shown when a book was
printed with paper made entirely I
from cornstalks. Science also ia j
making raw silk and wall-board frou
cornstalk waste.
Professor O. R. Sweeney of
Iowa State College tells us that
less than 3,000 known industrial _
ducts can now he manufactured from
such farm waste as cornstalks,
cobs, oat chaff, cottonseed hulls,
nut shells and straw. From
| plants, trees and vegetables
is now making good substitutes for
ivory, amber, leather, insulating ma-
terials and wool as well as explosives,
isilk thread, lacquers and photograph- v
hks film. Ye*r-
Hydrogen, a by-product of wood ®

lard. “Bagasse,” the residue of the
stalk from which syrup has been
eexed, is utilised in the manUfae-
rtur* of waH board. • 1
In countless other ways, this phase l
of thrift is developing, and all of
us are participating in the benefits. 7 >.
