For
a
successful
hydroponics
industry
--
one
which
can
feed
seventeen
hundred
million
people
--
we
must
engage
in
an
immense
reforestation
program
throughout
the
East
;
we
must
have
huge
wood-conversion
plants
to
deal
with
our
southern
jungles
;
we
must
have
power
,
and
steel
,
and
chemical
synthetics
above
all
.
"
"
Why
the
last
,
sir
?
"
"
Because
,
Mr.
Byerley
,
these
strains
of
yeast
have
each
their
peculiar
properties
.
We
have
developed
,
as
I
said
,
two
thousand
strains
.
The
beef
steak
you
thought
you
ate
today
was
yeast
.
The
frozen
fruit
confection
you
had
for
dessert
was
iced
yeast
.
We
have
filtered
yeast
juice
with
the
taste
,
appearance
,
and
all
the
food
value
of
milk
.
"
It
is
flavor
,
more
than
anything
else
,
you
see
,
that
makes
yeast
feeding
popular
and
for
the
sake
of
flavor
we
have
developed
artificial
,
domesticated
strains
that
can
no
longer
support
themselves
on
a
basic
diet
of
salts
and
sugar
.
One
needs
biotin
;
another
needs
pteroylglutamic
acid
;
still
others
need
seventeen
different
amino
acids
supplied
them
as
well
as
all
the
Vitamins
B
,
but
one
(
and
yet
it
is
popular
and
we
can
not
,
with
economic
sense
,
abandon
it
)
-
"
Byerley
stirred
in
his
seat
,
"
To
what
purpose
do
you
tell
me
all
this
?
"
"
You
asked
me
,
sir
,
why
men
are
out
of
work
in
Tientsin
.
I
have
a
little
more
to
explain
.
It
is
not
only
that
we
must
have
these
various
and
varying
foods
for
our
yeast
;
but
there
remains
the
complicating
factor
of
popular
fads
with
passing
time
;
and
of
the
possibility
of
the
development
of
new
strains
with
the
new
requirements
and
new
popularity
.
All
this
must
be
foreseen
,
and
the
Machine
does
the
job
-
'
"
But
not
perfectly
.
"
"
Not
very
imperfectly
,
in
view
of
the
complications
I
have
mentioned
.
Well
,
then
,
a
few
thousand
workers
in
Tientsin
are
temporarily
out
of
a
job
.
But
,
consider
this
,
the
amount
of
waste
in
this
past
year
(
waste
that
is
,
in
terms
of
either
defective
supply
or
defective
demand
)
amounts
to
not
one-tenth
of
one
percent
of
our
total
productive
turnover
.
I
consider
that
-
"
"
Yet
in
the
first
years
of
the
Machine
,
the
figure
was
nearer
onethousandth
of
one
percent
.
