“We can get fuel from fruit, from that shrub by the roadside, or from apples, weeds, saw-dust – almost anything! There is fuel in every bit of vegetable matter that can be fermented. There is enough alcohol in one year’s yield of a hectare of potatoes to drive the machinery necessary to cultivate the field for a hundred years. And it remains for someone to find out how this fuel can be produced commercially – better fuel at a cheaper price than we know now.” – Henry Ford
