BIBLIOGRAPHY. 
fession is under many obligations to Mr. Eger, who has gone 
about this task in a most intelligent and patriotic spirit, pro¬ 
ducing them in rapid succession, selecting the best authorities 
in different tongues, and securing their translation, and Ameri¬ 
canization by men of well known ability in the particular field 
treated of. 
We have just received from the publisher a copy of the 
above work, and after a casual perusal of it we have no hesitation 
in saying that within the ioo pages comprising the little work 
the subject is thoroughly discussed, and rules laid down for the 
examination of milk by commercial analysts, market inspectors 
and health officers. As showing the scope of the contents the 
work is divided into eight sections, as follows : I, Qualitative 
Examination of Milk ; II, Methods of Quantitative Analysis ; 
III, Detection of Preservatives ; III, Detection of Adulterations ; 
V, Estimation of Insoluble Foreign Matter ; VI, Examination 
of Condensed Milk and Curdled Milk ; VII, Appendix, treating 
of the Examination of solid forms of preserved milk ; VIII, An 
extensive Bibliography for the guidance of those who wish to 
examine further details of any branch of the subject. The 
volume may be obtained at small cost from the publisher, Alex. 
Eger, 134 East Van Buren Street, Chicago.

In less than ninety days the volume of 1900 was in the

the full transactions of the convention held at Detroit; to read 
at their leisure the papers presented, the discussion of those 
read, and the business transacted, as well as the details of the 
clinics, the attendance, the entertainment, and all other matters 
of interest which occurred. The volume contains the names of 
the honorary members, which now number 26, three of whom 
are dead, and a list of the Presidents and Secretaries since the 
organization of the Association. These latter lists were very 
carefully verified by Chairman Reynolds, and are as follows :
