A duplicate analysis was made of the gur and it is quoted. 

 Analyses are also given of the 3 kinds of molasses, viz., Agamata, 

 Farasumata and Chitu. 



An analysis of final molasses from cane sugar is added to the 

 table for comparison. This molasses was obtained by centrifugal- 

 ising the rab, boiling down the molasses again, and after crystallisa- 

 tion centrifugalising again. 



Nos. 1 and 2 were mixed in equal proportions to form the mo- 

 lasses used for the boiling experiment. Nos. 4 and 5 were samples 

 drawn from different lots of sugar. 



The amount of raw sugar and molasses obtained by this native 

 refining process is fairly constant from year to year and in all the 

 factories. I am much indebted to Mr. H. C. Macleod for kindly 

 placing the books of various factories at my disposal.
