In the meanwhile this table shows also a distinct disad- 

 vantage of the spirit-proof, namely that the dry-residue 

 cipher is not conform with the degree of milling of the 

 grain, for it appeared that the product of the second process, 

 which took place at Tjikampek, gave off each time more to 

 the spirit than after the first treatment, — the husking. 

 The reason of this is to be found in the different quantity 

 of substances soluble in spirit in the successive layers of 

 the silver-skin, and the parts of the silver-skin which lie 

 near the kernel are evidently richest in these soluble
