Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vocational Chemistry for Students of Agriculture and Home Economics The style of presentation has, of course, been made as simple as possible. Many of the laws and subjects that are conventionally presented in texts on general chemistry are omitted; among these are ionization, dissociation, the gas laws, and the laws of multiple and reciprocal propor tions. The writer has found' that these topics are not essential to an understanding of the chemistry which is needed by these students. The text is designed for a full year's course, including classroom and laboratory work. Where facilities are not available for the students to perform the laboratory work, this can be done by the instructor as demonstration. If only one term is given to chemistry, the text alone can be followed, with a limited amount of demonstration work. In this case the last two or three chapters may have to be omitted, which can be done without impairing the unity of the course. Realizing that no doubt many sins both of commission and omission are present, the writer will welcome any sug gestions for'the improvement of this volume.
