...Moore '95 of the National Department of Agriculture will lecture before the Botanical Club this afternoon on "Bacteria and the Nitrogen Problem." Dr. Moore is at present engaged in the study of botanical specimens in the State House in Boston, with special reference to bacteriological problems. His lecture will deal with the effect which the recent discovery of nitrogen imbibing bacteria on plants will have upon the future supply of nitrogen. The lecture will be given in Room 12 of the University Museum at 4.30 o'clock and will be open to members of the University...

...atmosphere of the sun. The experiment was performed by Professor Trowbridge and consisted in a careful study of the effect of powerful discharges of electricity on the spectra of various gases. Although great care was taken in drying and pur fying these gases, it was found that hydrogen, nitrogen and rarefied air gave substantially the same spectrum under the same conditions and as a result of the powerful electrical discharges the aqueous vapor was released from the walls of the spectrum tubes. From this investigation it was concluded that oxygen does exist in the atmosphere...
...sides to his body generally, but only one stomach." Let him then deal very gently with that one. All solid food should be thoroughly chewed, in order to submit the insoluble starch of vegetables to the action of saliva, converting it into soluble sugar, and to divide the nitrogenous food so as to render the access of gastric juice to all particles of it easy, on its arrival in the stomach. When a large amount of ice-water is taken with meals, dyspepsia undoubtedly results from it at times. As Americans are the great consumers of water in this condition...
...Sargent began his lecture yesterday by stating that the principal elements that sustain life are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, and that various kinds of food possessed these qualities in different degrees. The world's greatest scientists have devoted themselves to classifying foods according to their chemical compounds and effects on the human body. But no table of nutritives can be accurate in its application, as the nervous and muscular tissues are not the same...
