Professor Bose illustrated the inhibitory effect of alcohol, chloroform, either, and potassium cyanide on various plants and finally demonstrated that the nervous system of a plant, ten times more sensitive than that of an animal, may be controlled...
...values of atomic weights and other fundamental properties of the elements. Professor Richards has submitted a memoir, about to be published by the Carnegie Institute, containing the records of his experiments on a new method of determining compressibility. By means of this method, the compressibility of bromide, iodine, chloroform, bromoform, and other substances has been determined over a range of seven hundred atmospheres. Experiments have also been carried out to determine the atomic weight of sodium, the heat capacities of solutions, and certain electrochemical relations of the elements. Associated with Professor Richards, in this work, have been the following members...
...dissection cat," it may be stated that Prof. Burt G. Wilder, now lecturing at Bowdoin College, advertises that he wishes to obtain "cats, and occasionally kittens," for dissection or experiment, and that twenty cents will be paid for a full-grown cat.
