and to 1-2 in the second case. Rukminia's figures for the first and 

 second periods were 1-3 and 1-4 and the variation between two consecu- 

 tive determinations was from to 1-3. In the case of cows' (mixed) 

 milk the average figure was 1-8 and the variation to 1-0.

Saponification values. These are entered in Chart VII. Phulia's 

 average values for the three jjeriods were 219-3, 228-3 and 228-6 and 

 those for Lachminia 223-6, 233-6 and 230-0 for the three periods respec- 

 tively. Rukminia's figures were 214-6 and 222-2 during the first and 

 second periods, while butter from cows' (mixed) milk had the average 

 saponification value of 226-1. 



The curves of saponification values of the butter fat from the milk 

 show a well-marked and fairly regular rise from the beginning of the 

 experiment till about the end of the first week of July. This rise seems 

 to be independent of the oil cake consumed and the period of lactation. 

 It is found in the curves of all the three animals luider experiment, and
