The prevention of such wastes, brought about by the agency of micro-organ­ isms, Insects, fire, water, and other destrucUve agencies. Is to a large ex­ tent a problem for the agricultural chemist. "This problem," suys Dr. a A. Browne, chief of the bureau of chemistry’. “Is equal in Importance to that of the utilization of waste." Loss to Sugar Industry. Nearly all crops are subject to loss through deterioration. Ln an address to the Institute of Chemical Engineers, Doctor Browne called attention to a number of the more important ones, The losses to the sugar Industry from j deterioration of the harvested crop between field and factory, or from de­ terioratlon of the raw sugar between factory and refinery, amount each year to many millions of dollars. The same Is true of many other agricultural I commodities. T7ie department has. numerous projects under wuy In the field of loss prevention; among these may be mentioned the checking of the deterioration of paper and leather, improvements in dehydration and other methods for reducing the spoilage of foods, the prevention of dust explo­ sions. and the proofing of fabrics against damage by water, mildew, and fire. Spontaneous Combustion. A large number of unsolved chemical problems relate to this subject of loss I prevention, according to Doctor Browne. The agricultural Interests of the country suffer millions of dollars worth of damage each year from spontaneous combustion, but the chemical mechanism by which a mow of hay or a car of stock feed catches fire is not as yet explained. Less spec­ tacular, but more generally destruc­ tive. Is the deteriorative effect of at­ mospheric oxygen upon butter, paper, lard, leather, and other commodities. Importance of Yield to Crop Production Costs Investigators of the Cornell (N. Y.) experiment station have published the results of their efforts to obtain In­ formation on the production and costs of the principal cunning crops grown In that state. The report contains much of Interest regarding peas. “The cost per ton of peas,” states L J. Nor­ ton, “is very closely related to the yield per acre.“ Thus on 101 farms where yields averaged 2,138 pounds per acre, the return wus $20 per acre more than on 81 furms averaging 1,402 pounds. Furthermore, on 80 farms overaging 2,1)88 pounds per acre, tho Increased return advanced to $52 per aero. There Increased returns were produced at an average total cost of $2 per acre. The three factors that seemingly had the most to do with increasing the rate of yields, were fertilizer, manure and lfrne. It was found that the yield per acre advanced almost exactly In the some order as did the amounts of fertiliser and manure used, particularly the formes.
