The following table has been prepared as an aid in locating 

 the samples that show these deficiencies. The sample numbers 

 correspond to those hitherto employed pages 352 to 390, refer- 

 ence to which will enable anyone interested to ascertain the en- 

 tire history and chemical analysis of each lot. 



TABLE 39. DEFICIENCIES GROUPED ACCORDING TO SAMPLE NU.MBKKS 



Examining closely into the deficiencies of the n. samples 

 previously mentioned, it appears that Nos. 27, 104, 115 and 124 

 were more concentrated than the standard requires ; yet, the de- 

 ficiencies in total ash are but 0.02, 0.08, 0.05 and 0.03% re- 

 spectively. In three cases the insoluble ash is but 0.01% and in 

 the other but 0.02% below. They equal or exceed the standard 

 in malic acid value. 



No. 101 contains 28.36% water and is 0.06% low in total 

 ash and 0.07% low in malic acid value, while, on the other hand, 

 it is 0.04% over standard in insoluble ash. The remaining six 

 samples Nos. 112, 107, 106, 108, 114, and 119, fall short in all
