 solids and of protein vary directly with each other. Out of 53 samples 

 ^8 were found to be colored, the reason being that the pulp does not 

 retain its color as well as the juice does, and, further, the use of color- 

 ing materials permits the employment of a poor grade of fruit or the 

 substitution of a cheaper fruit.
