Senator Berthelot, the well-known French chemist, has published an interesting paper anent the chemi cal synthesis of aliments, iu which he foresees in the difficulties it still presents the economical emancipa tion of the human race, and the transformation of this planet into a vast pleasure ground. The more the conquest of electrical energy advan ces the nearer it appears to M. Ber thelot that mankind approaches to ward the substitution of chemistry for agriculture. Just as agriculture was evolved from the hunting, fishing and pas toral stages of mankind, so chemis try now sets up to displace with its products agricultural industries bas ed on the production of living or ganisms, animal and vegetable, by the creation of nutritive matters. The farm is already being edged out by the factory, and engineers and mechanics will soon take the place of peasants and field laborers. It is not long since the possibility of cre ating by synthesis all the organic matters was held to be ohimerical; now the possibility has been demon strated so often as to render it un deniable. Alimentary stuffs may be broadly divided into three funda mental classes—fats, sugars and al- bumenoids. As early as 1854 M. Berthelot by chemical synthesis cre ated bodies exactly similar to natu ral fats by means of substances rela ted to them, namely, glycerine and acid. He also generated these two substances with hydrocarbons. Su gar can now be produced in the chemist’s laboratory by similar com binations. Uhemical synthesis has not yet created the albumenoids, which are more complex and more liable to spoil. There is no doubt, however, but this feat will be short ly accomplished. Ohemical discov eries have already given rise to changes in agriculture. Madder has gone out of cultivation in the south of France, indigo in the West In dies and vanilla in other tropical places, owing to the chemical sub stitutes, and chemical foodstuffs are no more an impossibility than chem ical dyestuffs. M. Berthelot, how ever, utters a note of warning against the illusion of thinking thit food can be condensed into lozenges and pills, and that one’s meals can be carried in a small chocolate box in one’s waistcoat pocket. The hu man organism has its habits which are tantamount to necessity, and among its habits is that of burning from 250 to 300 grammes of carbon daily, and of eliminating from 15 to 20 grammes of nitrogen. Allowance must also be made for the waste in the body of about one-seventh of the food consumed. A certain weight or bulk of food will, there fore, continue to be indispensable, and though this may be chemical food it is not likely ever to become so condensed that a man may carry a week’s rations on the march with out inconvenience, as iB sometimes suggested. The newspapers of this country have published frequent reports re cently of the establishment of large cattle ranges in various southern states, notably Florida, There are tracts of land in Georgia, cleared by the turpentine operator and the lumberman, that could with large profit be used for the extension of ttys industry. Independent packing houses are being built and the beef trust will find it difficult, possibly, to regulate the prices of cattle on the hoof. The industry in all its phases is one that well deserves and will well repay the consideration of southern capitalists. The most pros perous country, it has been said, iB that which has the least need of im ports, and the principle applies with no less truth to a section or a state. —Savannah News. Promises. Marietta Journal. Promises, it is said, are like pie crust, easily made and easily bro ken. People want to be sincere, but they like strength of will pow er or character to be true to prom ises made. A man promises to mef t another at a certain hour to transact an important piece of business; the hour arrives but]the man does not; and there is disap pointment, a waste of tim4 and probably loss of confidence. There is a moneyed obligation and a promise to pay on a certain day. — The other party makes a promise on that promise; the first party fails to pay and the second par ty is placed in an embarassing situation, sud confidence is lost in his honesty. There is a hurri ed parting, a go^d bye, and a promise to write soon. Weeks and months run by, and the long- looked-for letter does not come.— There is a suspicion of flippancy and insincerity, und doubt sad-, dens the heart. Be punotul, be sincere, and keep the promises you make aud there will be good ex amples set by old and young. - Each ear ha9 four bones. The body has about 500 muscles.
