WOOD FOR
EVERYTHING!
From Fuel To Fodder
Berlin, April 10. That Germany is using wood for every conceivable purpose, from the manufacture of drainpipes to fod- der for animals, was revealed to day by the Reich director of. forestry.
Through special treatment, he said, wood was being succesfully utilised for spouts and drainpipes instead of copper, galvanized iron, tin or zine
Its durability was so great that It could even be used in automo bile construction for parts which are subjected to constant wear.
Instead of importing foreign hardwoods for parquet flooring. composition blocks were
being made of sawdust and chemicals.
SUGAR AND FERTILISERS Considerable progress had been made in the utilisation of wood as a fuel for motive power in motor- cars both in the form of wood gas and as benzine obtained through a process of hydrogenation.
Most interesting use of wood was the derivation from it of food- stuffs.
Sugar from wood was being used extensively in the preparation of food for farm animals and at-
tempts were being made to produce fodder with a high albumin con- tent from wood.
Refuse from the various pro- cesses could be utilised as fertili- ser, he revealed.—— Transocean News Service.
