GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF COURSES

organic chemistry, provided more especially for students of agriculture and natural science. The instruction is directed mainly to the consideration of the general characteristics and the mutual relations of certain of the more important classes of carbon compounds, particularly the fats, the carbohydrates, and the proteids. / / . (last half); Lecture, M., W., F., 3; Laboratory< Tu., Th., 3, 4, and 5;

(2). Professor PALMER and Mr. SAMMIS.

Required:

5a.

Chemistry 1, 3b.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS.—General principles and practice

of gravimetric and volumetric analysis. This course is directed particularly to the general principles of quantitative analysis, including stoichiometry and the analysis of silicates. It is preliminary to all other courses in quantitative analysis. Lectures and assigned text from Fresenius, Cairns, and the journals. /. or II.; Lecture, M., W., 6; Laboratory, 10 periods a week, arrange time; (5). Professor

PARR, Mr. ROSE, and Mr. WALTON.

ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS INORGANIC SUBSTANCES, as clay, soils,

ores, fertilizers, etc., etc. /. or II.; Lectures, Tu., 5; Laboratory, 6 or 12 periods a week; arrange time; (3 or 5). Mr. ROSE and Mr.

WALTON.

EXAMINATION AND ANALYSIS OF FOODSTUFFS, as milk, butter,

cereals, meats, etc. / / . ; Lecture, Th., 5; Laboratory, 4 or 12 periods a week; arrange time; (2 or 5). Mr. ROSE. Required: Chemistry 5a.

6a. CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY.—This is a course of lectures com-

prising a study of technological chemistry as illustrated in those industries having a chemical basis for their principal operations and processes. Much use is made of the journals. Thorp's Industrial Chemistry is used as a guide. No laboratory work. / / . ; M., W.; 3', (2)Professor PARR.

Required: Chemistry 3a. 6b. METALLURGY.—Special attention is given to the effect of impurities in ores upon metallurgical processes and finished products. Fuels, refractory materials, and fluxes are described and their value and application explained. A series of lantern slides illustrating actual plants in operation together with specimens of furnace material and products are used in illustration. Much use is made of journals, annuals, and monographs setting forth the best practice.
