Combustible's Many Uses.
If the farmer can't make the old
horse go on straw and corncobs per
haps he can run his car. his tractor
and his stationary engine with cas
made from them. That's the problem
the department of agriculture is strug
gling with, says the Nation's Business.
Already its experimenters have run an
automobile with the new combustible
and used It for lighting and cookin?.
If the results of tbe<e tests warrant
further Investigation the experiments
will he extended to the problem of
plant equipment for producing the gas
on a scale sufficient to allow tlx* farm
er to supply light and beat for his
house, power for stationary engines,
and possibly for his tractor from a
small individual -outfit. If a suitable
unit can be constructed It seems likely
that the straw gas may have a certain
economic value In the sections of the j
country where the raw material from
which the cas is made Is now con
sidered as waste and burned or left
to rot.
