The bran particle count on these samples varied from 65 to 331, 

 with an average of 174. The hair count ranged from 43 to 223, with 

 an average of 109. The total offal count varied from 104 to 517,

CLEAR FLOTJRS MILLED FROM SOFT WHEATS. 



Thirteen samples of clear flour reported to have been milled from 

 soft wheats were examined, these samples varying from 5^ to 50 

 per cent as far as commercial grades are concerned. Table 29 gives 

 the results obtained.
