Long Years OF Scientific Effort

PARIS. Jan. Though the po-
tato was brought 10 Europe in the
latter part of the sixtene1h- century
4 was not until the eighteenth that
it became popularized in France,
mainly through the labors OF Par
mentier, the centenary OF whose death
occurred on Dec IL. Parmentier was
an apothecary, who during the Seven
Years war served as doctors assist
ant in the hospitals OF Hanover
The severe famine OF 1863 caused
the Besancon academy In l771 TO offer
a prize for suggestions as 10 the best
vegetable that could be relied on as
supplement TO wheat in such an
emergency Parmentier won the
prize with an essay on the method of
extracting a nutritive substance from
the starch OF certain vegetables. and
his researches In this connection led
him later TO study the potato, against
which at this time violent prejudice
prevailed. leprosy and fever being
among the diseases which its use as
food was alleged 10 engender
Such legends died slowly, and II
was not until Parmentier. In lT1S,
published his "Examen Chimique de
la Pomme de Terre.' that any really
scientific effort was made 10 combat
these popular errors Then the
French government placed land at
Sablens at his disposal for purposes
OF potato cultivation. and the first
potato blossoms that appeared were
gathered by Parmentier. made into a
bouquet and presented By him TO
