VINEOAR.—" In the Lancet's Analytical Sanitary
Commission," says the Worcester Chronicle," the vinegar of
Messrs. Kent and Sons, of Upton-on-Severn, is reported as
being wholly uncontaminated with sulphuric acid." These
gentlemen have long been famed for the purity of their
French vinegars, which should not be confounded with
those sold as " white wine vinegars." These are too often
either distilled vinegars or acetic acid. The firm of Messrs.
Kant and Sons is a very old one, and its proprietors are
large buyers of French brandies from the west of France.
In their personal intercourse with those districts, the vinegar
trade attracted their attention, and they became convinced
that an adequate amount of experience was not applied to
the manufacture, or that the manufacturers themselves
were, from a deficiency of capital, compelled to bring the
article to market before the process of fermentation was
complete, and in this crude state it was too often imported
and sold. Messrs. Kent, however, bring these vinegars
over, and submit them upon their arrival to a process of their
own, which involves both time and attention, and the result
is a vinegar of the finest and purest character. The Messrs.
Kent are equally well known for their French brandies, their
English liqueurs, and their cider; the visits of the home
buyers of this firm to the farmers of Herefordshire, and the
annual trips through the brandy districts of France, differing
but in the nature of the product sought for. The vinegar
trade has suffered seriously from competition, and firms have
struggle-cc against firms, at first honestly and fairly, but at
length availed themselves of those opportunities which che-
mical works presented, and hence the admixture of cheap
and deleterious acids with that necessary adjunct of our
domestic requirement.-- Standard,
