Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exhibit of the Bureau of Chemistry at the Pan-American Exposition, Buffalo, New York, 1901 The exhibit of the Bureau of Chemistry will be found in the central part of the north win of the Government building. It has been so planned as to illustrate three of the important features of the work of the Bureau, namely, the study of pure and adulterated foods, the beet-sugar industry, and the testing of road-making materials. It was impracticable to include in the exhibit a number of lines of investigation which are now in process or which have been completed during recent years. The results of many of these have been published, and are shown in a collection of publications which forms a prominent feature of the exhibit. These will be found on the table marked "1." (See Pi. I, frontispiece.) Since 1883, 62 bulletins and 7 small pamphlets, designated as circulars, have been issued, containing in all 7, 989 pages. Numerous contributions have been made by members of the Bureau to the Yearbook of the Department of Agriculture. The reports of sugar-beet investigations since 1897 have been published as a part of the special report to Congress on this subject. The results of the food investigations hitherto published are contained in the nine parts of Bulletin 13 (1,374 pages). In addition to the work reported in the regular publications of the Bureau, a considerable amount of research work has been done which has been reported from time to time in various scientific periodicals. Much of the time of the working force of the Bureau is required for cooperative work carried on with or at the request of other branches of the Department of Agriculture and the other Executive Departments of the Government. Exhibit Of Pure And Adulterated Foods. By W. D. Bigelow. In this exhibit it is desired to illustrate principles and not to call attention to individual frauds. Interest would have been added had it seemed best to display all the samples under their original labels.
