of water present. None of them contained a very great excess, and the 

 excess in some of them was very slight indeed, as will be seen by refer- 

 ence to the results in the table below. However, others did contain 

 an excess of water of 4 or 5 per cent, which is, of course, a loss to the 

 consumer equal to 4 or 5 gallons of the product in each hundred gal- 

 lons of it. 



For lack of time these samples were examined for an excess of 

 water only, but examination will be made for other adulterations as 

 early as possible.
