The object of utilizing the sulphurous acid appears to be a matter ofsome dispute. The following motives have been sophisticated for its use:(1) It softens the corn a lot more than plain water, and hence aids indegerminating (two) it acts as a bleaching agent and insures a whiterstarch and (3) it acts as a preservative and prevents the starch andgluten waters from becoming sour. The acid is largely dissipatedduring the processes that comply with, but the completed solution must notcontain a lot more than a mere trace of sulphur dioxid.

The soaked corn is drained and then passed through a variety ofattrition mill, which shreds it and separates the germ from the re-mainder of the kernel and also loosens the hulls from the endosperm.The t}^pe of machine generally in use consists of two vertical platesmounted on a horizontal axis and geared straight to a motor. Inthe early sort of machine the two plates had been geared to differentmotors and revolved in opposite directions. (Fig. 4.) In someinstances they were run at different rates of speed, apparently withgood benefits. The most recent approved type, nonetheless, has a single stationaryplate. This eliminates one motor and drastically reduces the expense of themachine as well as the operating expense. (Fig. five.) The shredded corn is mixed with a huge quantity of water andtransferred to floating vats, which are lengthy,

The waterfrom these mills is generally conducted into other machines, in which some of the fine gold which passesfrom the first machine is gathered. In most situations a shallow round basin, of about four feet diameter, isappended, in which a rake moves about with a vertical axis, gently stirring the sediment which maysettle from the passing water.
