Chemists of all nations have been seeking to improve the existing methods of nitrogen fixation. Last week the most important discovery since Haber's was announced from the fixed nitrogen research laboratory of the Chemical Warfare Service of the U. S. Army, at Washington, by Dr. Arthur B. Lamb, director of the laboratory, and professor of chemistry at Harvard University. A new catalyst has been found to unite the atoms of nitrogen and hydrogen into the molecule of ammonia. It yields 14% of ammonia, twice the amount given by the Haber process. The nature of the catalyst...
...every where that Mary went, the Lamb was sure to go." This more of less fond relation is equally true of the Republican and Democratic Parties, but the tie is not so much of love as competition. Some few days ago the Republican sympathizers in Harvard arose, in their strength, and almost by spontaneous generation, the Democratic constituency yesterday loomed up in rivalry. There is a remote possibility of future skirmishing worthy of the two descendants of once virile forbears...
Production of nitrogen compounds from the air has been made far more economical and efficient by an important chemical discovery, according to a statement made yesterday by Professor Arthur B. Lamb, of the Department of Chemistry of Harvard University...
Professor Lamb was director of the Fixed Nitrogen Research Laboratory at Washington, where the catalyst was developed, during and after...
...Newspapers," wrote Charles Lamb, "always excite curiosity. No one ever lays one down without a feeling of disappointment." Here is a book that will satisfy that curiosity and give the reader an explanation of his disappointment in laying down a modern newspaper...
