It cites abundant wheat, corn, and by products, mentions laws shifting to free import, and notes potential energy and economic gains. The narrative also includes a long digression about a Modoc mythic figure and frontier storytelling.

Potato Power in Fuel Battle for North and South States
A decades old discussion argues potatoes and other fermentable crops could cut fuel costs to under 14 cents per gallon, potentially rivaling gasoline and kerosene. Prof Wo. Wifet estimates starch and sugar sources like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and molasses waste could power northern to southern states, with corn and wheat shunned as sources. The piece notes grand potential for alcohol production and warns profits favor wartime-like industrial shifts, touching on federal figures and regional agricultural leverage.
