Prof. W. O. Atwater, of Wesleyan
university, contributes an article to the
forthcoming- November Century on
"The Food-Supply of the Future"—the
first iu a series which will have especial
value to farmers. The writer believes
that the doctrine of _It_.th.us—that the
time will come when there will not be
food enough for the human race, owing
to the theory that population increases
in a geometrical and food-supply is an!
arithmetical ratio—is one which need
never give the world any uneasiness
owing to the great advances that are
being made iu chemistry.
Science has shown what are the factors in vegetable production,and plants
can now be grown in wa,to"_ or in sand
by adding tJiejp?ojje_ chemicals. Prof.
A^watep g|ves the result of an interest?
ing-experiment recently made in his
laboratory. Sea-sand wasbrought from
the the shore of Long Island Sound.
To divest it of every possible material
which the plant might use for food except the sand itself, it was carefully
washed with watorand then heated. It
was put Into glass jars, water was added
minute quantities of chemical salts
were dissolved iu it. Dwarf peas,
planted in this sand, grew to a height
of 'eight feet, while peas of tho same
kind, planted by a skillful gurdner in
the rich soil of a garden eloso by,
reached a height of only four feet.
