...storage without losing its power. Vitamin C is mainly to be found in fruit, vegetables or fresh milk from cows that have been grazing in the open. In my experiments I used the juice of oranges. ... In the unripe oranges I found the so-called provitamin -that is, the product which, when the fruit ripens, develops into the vitamin. I found that it was identical with what the chemists call narkotin. . . . Having arrived at this conclusion, my next task was to find a mechanical process to deal with narkotin, which proved to be very difficult to deal with, because...
Last week's product is even more convenient. Heretofore it has been dangerous to inject liver extracts directly into the blood stream. The extracts behaved like protein poisons. By fiddling with the liver juices after a method which has been patented, Professors Sturgis & Isaacs developed an innocuous fluid.

The farmer, always seeking for a champion, sees in "Alfalfa Bill" the product of a western agricultural state who is instinctively hostile to the urban plutocracy of the East. The fact that during the past summer in Oklahoma he invariably wore a white cotton suit was not lost on a population suffering from a sharp drop in the price of cotton...
...experienced acquaintance with the way the human mind has worked in all departments of its activity." This, the Great Tradition, exists no more in the U. S. If it did? "The educable person is still here in the raw, and a few of his kind, as a finished product, would come in uncommonly handy at the moment. What has Columbia to say in the premises? What has the whole educational system...
