Experiments were then made and he signed the report Daseo. on iukui. Dr John H. Long, another member of the board, explained the experiments made by feeding six young men with food treated with benzoate of soda. He admitted having protected them from interference and excused this by say ing that before the experiment begun some of them became, too sick to eat properly, but after the newspapers had ceased to note the work there was no further trouble. He went on to tell of the experiments saying: ' Did Not Disguise Rotten Fruit. "At the request of a large manufactur ing firm, there was sent to my labora tory a mess of rotten tomatoes with which to make catsup. I meanwhile had gathered up more rotten tomatoes, ap ples, a few peaches, and some bananas. These were- allowed to rot further through four or five days. Out of this about two gallons of catsup were made. Some of It was -preserved with vinegar and spices, some with benzoate and some left unmixed. The odor and taste of the last were bad: that with the benzoate showed essentially the same condition, while with the vinegar and spices a fair i rvnAR of catsuD was secured. A worse lot of raw material could not be im agined, yet the inferiority in the one lot of product was completely concealed by the use of vinegar and spices. Benzoate has but little taste and no odor, and therefore it cannot conceal inferiority." Dr. Russell H. Chittenden, another member of the board, said: "From our experiments only one logi cal - conclusion seems possible, viz., that benzoate of soda In small -nd large doses up to four grams per day la with out deleterious effect upon the -human system. I believe the evidence warrants the opinion that sodium benzoate la no more harmful than corresponding amounts of common salt. In the light of our experiments it is difficult to see why benzoate in 'moderate amounts should be considered any more inimical to health than such a salt as sodium chloride." Why Flour Is Bleached. Dr. H. W. Wiley, chief chemist of the Department of Agriculture, explained the subject of bleached flour. "Exposure to sunlight or air, constituting what is known as 'aging,' produced a pertain whitening in flour, he said. By chemi cal means this change of tint could be produced immediately, so far as appear ance was concerned, and a perfectly new flour made to look like an old one. In addition to the bleaching of the flour. other changes go on by exposure to th air which, in the minds of a great many consumers, improve its quality. There fore there is a general impression, prob ably., founded upon fact, that old flour, or certain flour ground from old wheat, is superior to new flour or flour made from freshly-ground wheat."
