SCIENCE IN BREAD MAKING.

At the recent annual meeting of
the American Chemical society,
held in Washington, D. c., the
Question of the value of carbonate
of ammonia as a leavening agent
in bread, or as used in baking pow
ders, came up for discussion, in
which Prof. Barker, of the univeis-
lily of Pennsylvania, and president
of the society; DR.. Richardson,
late of the United States depart
ment ofagriculture in Washington;
DR.. William McMurtrie, late pro-
fessor Of chemistry in the univers-
ity of Illinois; DR.. E. II. BARLEY,
late chemist of the Brooklyn N. Y,
board of health, and professor of
chemistry of the Long Island col
lege, and others, took part.
The consensus of opinion was
overwhelming in favor of the en-
ployment of ammonia 1t was
stated as a fact that ammonia
rendered the gluten Of the flour
more soluble than the original
gluten, and that the bread in
which this action was pronounced
by carbonate of ammonia must be
more digestablc and hence more
h2lthful, and because Of the ex-
IRENE volatility of carbonate O.
ammonia and it's complete expul
sion from the bread in the process
, of baking, it is one of the most use
full, most healthful and most valu
: able leavening agents known.
9 These conclusions are borne on
= by the very elaborate ana exhaus
r tive experiments made by Prot
2 J. w. Mallct, Of the university o
t Virginia, which show conclusivel,
: that bread made with one per cent
