state. This corrected point lay consistently with the others on the high 

 curve. Evidently the succession of high points found at the same pres- 

 sures, as well as the previous low points, is to be explained by the season- 

 ing effect of the maximum pressure of 18,500, which was applied between 

 the two sets. The last low point is due to the passing to the viscous

state again, after the seasoning effect had disappeared in time or had 

 been overcome by too high a pressure. After the point at 45° another 

 point was found at 52°, applying the correction for yield, and found to 

 he on the high curve consistently with the others. It did not seem 

 worth while to attempt points at still higher pressures, because the 

 correction becomes more difficult to apply at the high pressures, both 

 because the yield is becoming more rapid, and because the yield does 

 not remain uniform in time at the highest pressures. 



The behavior of this cylinder is interesting from the point of view
