The statistics are impressive: if only one percent of all feeds sold contained 5 to 8 percent of stabi- lized animal fat, the farmers would use up all the fat they can't sell for soap. Now, we learn that at the Uni- versity of Nebraska, they have "fed out" one lot of steers on standard rations and an equivalent lot on a mixture including tallow.

Experi- ments elsewhere with chicken feeds containing up to 8 percent stabilized animal fats have produced chickens indistinguishable from those on standard diets. "Stabilized" brings us to our part. Fat goes rancid in feed with com- mercially inconvenient rapidity, making it unappetizing to animals and possibly dangerous to them.

Kodak reports to laboratories on:refluxing fats ... the sensibleness of supplying somewhat impure organics ... makingthe selection of scientiflc photographic materials easier for you and us

Fats for feedAdvertising, not the kind you arereading now but the big-time out-pourings, convinces millions of la-dies that plain soap is demode, thatsynthetic detergents are the thing.Frantic scrabbling ensues to find amarket for the 700 million poundsof tallow and grease by which thenation's production exceeds its con-sumption. Agencies and institutionsconcerned with our agriculturalwelfare conceive the notion of theentire animal industry as a vastchemical operation in which the lessdesired product-fat-may be re-fluxed to create more of the desiredproduct-meat. A long series of nu-tritional experiments shows that it'smere folklore to regard herbivoresas creatures that eat vegetable ma-terials only. The reflux or feedbackidea, besides sounding highly scien-tific, also fits in with the farmer'sinstinctive desire for self-sufficiency.The statistics are impressive: if

only one percent of all feeds soldcontained 5 to 8 percent of stabi-lized animal fat, the farmers woulduse up all the fat they can't sellfor soap.Now, we learn that at the Uni-

versity of Nebraska, they have "fedout" one lot of steers on standardrations and an equivalent lot on amixture including tallow. Both lotsbrought the same price, but the fateaters had a glossier appearance andcost $1.18 less per cwt gain. Experi-ments elsewhere with chicken feedscontaining up to 8 percent stabilizedanimal fats have produced chickensindistinguishable from those onstandard diets.

"Stabilized" brings us to our part.Fat goes rancid in feed with com-mercially inconvenient rapidity,making it unappetizing to animalsand possibly dangerous to them."Tenox R," our butylated hydroxy-anisole, added in minute amountduring rendering, keeps the fat un-altered in mixed feeds for at leastone year's storage at room tempera-ture. Since we don't know of a bet-ter way to stabilize fats in feeds, the

news from Nebraska and elsewhereexcites us.

COMMERCIAL POULTRY PROCESSING"by M. F. GUNDERSON, T. S. KYLE, H. W. McFADDEN, JR.,

University of NebraskaThe authors point out precisely the stepsnecessary for preventing the spread andmultiplying of bacteria during poultryprocessing and marketing. This new andunique book shows where bacteria arefound-what they are-and what can bedone about it. In addition to bacteria ingeneral, the authors studied repeated iso-lated types of bacteria potentially capableof causing human diseases. The methodsand results should help to solve similarproblems in the processing of other foods.1954 Publication; $3.00Order now ... on approval if you wish ... from

SCIENCE

ON MICROCARDSI

Following the requests of a number of li-braries, the AAAS Board of Directors hasdecided to publish a microcard edition ofSCIENCE. The 1953 issues are now availablein this form. The space saving is considerable.25 sets of 3" x 5" microcards take up ap-

proximately the same space as one set of thebound volumes of SCIENCE for 1953. Thebother and expense of binding is completelyeliminated.

The cost of the Microcard edition for1953 has been set at $15.00 and it is antici-pated that the Microcard edition of subse-quent years will sell at the same price. Ordersfor the 1953 edition and standing orders'may be placed with: AAAS, 1515 Massachu-setts Avenue, NW, Washington 5, D. C.

SPECIAL FEATURES

+ Water Cooled Surface for Paper or Starch...The plat-form surface, on which buffer saturated filter paper orstarch is placed, is cooled by circulating water (see illus-tration) to reduce evaporation and minimize change inbuffer solution during operation, thus permitting use ofhigh voltages.
