1 These figures do not represent the total amount of hydrogenated oil used in the manufacture oflard 
substitutes, for the reason that in many instances manufacturers who do their own hydrogenating re- 
ported the amounts of oils thus treated, rather than the amounts of the hardened product. 
The figures 
here given represent largely the amount of hydrogenated oil purchased by the smaller substitute makers 
for combining with the other ingredients. 
2 The discrepancy between the amount of the total substitutes reported and that ofthe ingredientsused 
is probably due to the fact that some manufacturers included in their reports the weight of the crude oil 
instead of the refined oil.

_ | The fact that no reports for hydrogenated oil are included in this table does not mean that none is used 
in the soap industry. Large amounts of hydrogenated oil were substituted for tallow and other hard 
fats, which were abnormally high during the recent great war. The soap makers using hydrogenated 
oil, however, are largely producers of their own hardened fats, and have reported the oils hardened rather 
than the hydrogenated product.
