PRIZE-SUBJECTS IN APPLIED SCIENCE.* 



The program of .subjects for which prize* 

 will be awarded by the Societe industrielle d& 

 Mulhouse next year has been issued, and copies 

 can be obtained upon application to thfr 

 secretary of the Society. In general chemistry, 

 medals will be awarded for the best memoirs or 

 works on the theory of the manufacture of 

 alizarin reds ; the synthesis of the coloring 

 matters of cochineal ; theoretical and practical 

 study of the carmine of cochineal ; study of the 

 coloring matter of cotton ; the composition of 

 aniline blacks ; physical and chemical modifica- 

 tions which occur when cotton fiber is trans- 

 formed into oxycellulose ; action of chlorine 

 and its oxygen compounds upon wool ; con- 

 stitution of coloring matters employed in linen 

 fabrics ; synthesis of a natural coloring matter 

 used in industries ; and theory of the natural 

 formation of an organic substance and prepara- 

 tion of the substance by synthesis. 



In connection with dyeing, medals will be 

 awarded for the best works presented on the 

 following subjects : A new mordant which ad- 

 mits of practical use ; metallic solutions which. 

 give up their bases to textile fibers, and the con- 

 ditions in which they are most eflfective ; iron 

 mordants and the part they play in dyeing ac- 

 cording to their condition of oxidation and 

 hydration ; an aniline black which will not de-
