One gram of soy bean fat required milligramspotassium hydroxid for saponification. The fat has also been examined,by Stingl and Morawski and by Roelofsen^ with reference to its iodiaabsorption. The figures obtained for the latter constant were 138,8, respectively, and these and other facts indicate that the oilhas poor drying properties. Pellet studied the ash of soy beans in considerable detail. Soy beans are eaten to some extent when cooked in the same waysas other beans. The Chinese express an oil from them which is astandard article of commerce and is l
