laboratory.
Natures laboratory is ceaselessly
working, developing and storing up
products for the use Of mankind at
large. In the vegetable kingdom this
Is especially noticeable, and if man
sometimes only succe eds, after much
experiment and work, in making the
plant give up It's useful properties, at
other times-and these are of frequent
occurrence-he finds the product al
ready manufactured, and requiring
but small amount Of preparation to
render it st for utilization.
To this latter category Of plants
yielding ready-made products, says the
New York Ledger, the cream-of-tartar
trees may be said to belong. They are
members of the genus Adansonia, of
the natural order Bombacee. Until
within the past few years it was
thought that only one species could
rightly claim the title of the cream of
tartar tree-the Adansonia Gregorii,
the equity stem tree of Northern Aus
tralia. Recent researches have, how
ever, proved that the baobab Adanso-
MIA digitata] Of Senegal contains near
~ two per cent. of free tartaric acid
and nearly twelve per cent. of bitar-
trate of potassium. The acid is found
In the farinaceous pulp surrounding the
seed, and has at all times been highly
esteemed by travellers, who mix it with
little water in order to make re-
freshing beverage.
