This is five times the cr out area of South Carolina." om- "These machines use gas, andi the farmer has no part in supplying ti gas. A possible solution, and c the which is being worked upon now is se is reduce the grain to alchohol and and it in the preparation of gasoline for solution of 10 percent alchohol a The 90 percent gas. If this preparationc rient be perfected it will mean a lot to the s as producers of grain." t. "Another advantage, Doctor D, are rick said, of such a mixture is that ucts will save the supply of gas. This n; the ural supply is necessarily limited, s wat 10 percent alcohol could be blend but with this supply it would be a saving ding "Other effects of this mechanizati and of the farm is the decreased time rim- which products can be produced. the bushel of corn formerly required fc munt hours of human labor can now be pi are duced in 40 mInutes.
