VIII. LIME-SULFUR SOLUTIONS. 



The samples reported in the table given below wei-e all received dur- 

 ing 1910 and 1911. All but two of the samples are commercial prepara- 

 tions. From the results given in the table it appears that there is quite 

 a considerable variation in the amount of total sulfur in solution and 

 that ditferent samples from the same comi)any may vary as much as 

 7%. Number 229G, Horicum, is a thick paste and must be dissolved 

 in water before using.
