GERMAN GRIP ON
RARE SUGAR CONE
America Now Producing Costly
Sweets Used In the Detection
OF Disease Germs.
RESULT OF WAR NECESSITY
Prompt Work of Chemists OF Great
Assistance IN Fighting Typhoid
In A, e. F.-Eiaborate Care
Necessary.

New York-Germany's grip on the
rare sugar industry has been broken
nj last by several American manufac-
turers who are now able to produce
those costly sweets used In the de-
lection of disease germs.
The most expensive of these, quoted
at several hundred dollars a pound
Is far beyond the reach Of the average
housewife, and yet 1t plays an I'm
portant part In scientific research and
must be obtained.
At the outbreak of the European
war the group of rare sugars used In
our laboratories was manufactured In
Germany. The Teuton5 had such a
hold on the processes that they were
able at any time to destroy competi-
ticn.
One OF these sugars Is OF exceptional
value In the detection of typhoid, as
the organisms of that disease are so
fond Of 1t that they naturally select
II and so multiply upon 1t that their
presence can readily be detected. The
military hospitals Of the United
States called upon members of the
American Chemical Society to coop
crate In the making Of rare bacteri-
illogical sugars for typhoid work, and,
according to bulletin issued by that
society these efforts soon proved sue
cessful. The fact that the health of
the American expeditlonary force In
France was so good was largely due
to the quest for typhoid germs which
was made possible by the preparation
of these unusual saccharine substances
In laboratories Of the United States.
The Investigations which developed
from the employment Of these agents
did much to fOrestall outbreaks OF
typhoid fever and to indicate the need
of special vigilance In vaccination
against that dread disease, which in
the Spanish American war caused
more deaths than did the bullets of
the enemy.
Guides In Selecting Germs.
Other rare sugars are used as guides
in the detection Of cholera germs and
are therefore invaluable a.. weapons
against the pestlence which walks In

Curved Lines on the Map.
Nearly all maps OF the United
States show the parallels Of latitude
as curved lines and are likely to lead
the ordinary observer to believe that
certain eastern or western states are
farther north than some of the central
states that are actually in the same
latitude. For this reason one who Ia
asked which extends farther soutb.

of Florida is nearly fifty miles farther
south than the southernmost point In
Texas For the same reason, when we
consider the geographic positions of
countries south Of the United States
we find that errors are likely to be
made in estimating position or extent
In longitude. Few realize that the

ferred directly north would extend
from New York city TO Indiana, or that
Havana is farther west than Cleve.

another kind OF sugar renders them
unfit for the precise purposes for
which they are intended. 1t requires
the utmost patience and scientific
skill to put them through the various
steps Of publication. Often through
some slight slip or mishap days of
work may be lost, and II Is necessary
to go back and repeat the processes
In order to obtain the required stand
ard.
This elaborate care Is responsible
for the seemingly enormous prices at
which the rare sugars are listed. High
as these costs may appear they are
said to yield only nominal profits to
the manufacturers.
The most expensive rare sugar
quoted In the catalogue Is dulcitol, for
which S375 a pound Is asked.
Mannose Is worth $40 pound. The
ivory nut better known as vegetable

from Ecuador, and liz used for the
manufacture of buttons for coats and

from the scraps OF the button fac

must put 1t in order to obtain abso-
