Italy’ s C hem ical Industry
Light From Trees
More than 100,000 workers are now
employed in the chemical industry of
Italy. In 1914 it had 50,000 workers.
Capital invested has risen during the
same period from $46,000,000 to $85,-
000,000.
Advices to the American
Chemical society indicate that Italy,
like the United States, marched for-’
ward on its own initiative when its dye
stuff supply from Germany was cur
tailed by the World war. Ten years
ago the Italian chemical industry pro
duced no artificial dye-stuffs or coal
tar dyes. Last year it produced 2,-
400,000 kilograms ‘of sulphur black, 1,-
000,000 kilograms of azo '$ dyes and
more than 100,000 kilograms of vari
ous basic and acid dyes. About six-
tenths of the national requirement
of coal tar products is now produced
in Italy, which also! exports some of
the leading intermediates.
A French scientist has discovered,
a means of extracting and harnessing
the electricity .in trees. He connected
a copper plate attached to a tree, and
another plate buried in the earth, with
a galvanometer, a delicate- instrument
which measures the strength of weak
currents of electricity, and obtained
a record of the current passing through
the tree.
|
With three trees connected in the
same way the power was increased,
the experiment, with a like result, be
ing continued until twenty trees were
linked up in this fashion.
The scientist then placed two cop
per plates ip the earth, about six feet
apart, and With the current thus ob
tained lighted a small electric lamp.
, Whether the idea can be extended to
be commercially worth while has yet
to be determined.
