There is hope that the preplexing problem of dealing with this nuisance may now be solved, for a process has been discovered by which the refuse sawdust may be made to yield a handsome profit. When dry it is carbonized in iron retorts, and in the process there is given off 80 per cent, of volatile products, the remaining 20 per cent, being granulated charcoal, which can be used in making gun powder, filters, lining refrigera- tors, and as a disinfectant, and with a little tar it could be pressed into bricks and used for fuel; 22 of the 80 per cent, of the volatile product are in the form of fixed gases, which can be used for heating, lighting, etc. ; 47 per cent, is pyr- oligenous acid, which is crude acetic acid, and after being purified and concentrated is used in whit*.- lead, color, print and vinegar manu- factories.
