SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF WHEAT AND OTHER CEREALS. 7 



CONCLUSIONS. 



The method described in tliis paper for determining tlie specific 

 gravity of wheat gives very uniform results and is entirely satisfactory. 



Since this method was devised the correlation of specific gravity 

 with the quahty of wheat has been undertaken. It appears very 

 prol^able from the work so far that this test, with others, will prove 

 of value in indicating kernel structure, milling quality, and flour 

 yield of wheat.
