A Disscrtatio7i on Wood Alcohol. 41 On the opposite side of the street, in a vacant lot, we saw innumerable piles of cord-wood. Here was the secret of the lumber slide on the mountain and the log- boom. In the yard, under long sheds, were heaps of charcoal. In an open court were rows of iron vats, from under the lids of which steam with a strong odor was issuing. Enterino- the buildino-. We saw before us eio-ht furnaces with high iron retorts above them. The retorts were full of wood, and in th...e furnaces the hottest of charcoal fires. The stench that pervaded the place was awful — a com- bination of charcoal gas — sweet smelling and overpower- ing, alcohol and tar. Goinor back of the furnaces we found hieh wooden tanks filled with clear cold water from a mountain stream near by, through which ran coiled pipes, connecting with the retorts and with a large pipe at the foot of the tanks, which latter pipe ran to a sunken vat. Further on in the store-room were heaps of acetate of lime, and vats of crude alcohol and wood-tar.
