both runs, upon the presumption that the cane was of uniform quality, 

 The results were as follows : 



Table giving results of special experiment in maceration. 



The amount of water added was greater than the average used dur- 

 ing the season, and was about all the cane could be made to absorb, 

 with the conditions under which the water was added. 



The analyses of the juices gave the following figures : 



Samples of second mill juices were taken during the runs, which gave 

 the following : 



From the above the dilution is seen to be 



Per cent. 



Calculated on the solids 9.13 



Calculated on the sucrose 10.41 



The dilution of the second mill juice is 



Per cent. 



Calculated on the solids 44.64 



Calculated on the sucrose.. . . 42.60
