1 Omitted from summary, as ground hulls probably had been added to sample. 
2 Omitted from summary, as mill was milling abnormal, damaged rice. 
3 Omitted from summary, as mill was running on a mixed lot of broken rice. 
4 Sample was taken from a lot of bran ready for the market. Exact history of bran unknown.

i Polish from a second brush. 
2 The figures for ether extract in these samples are not representative and were not used in obtaining 
minimum percentage. 
3 These two polishes are mixed before being put upon the market. 
4 In this mill the rice is scoured by three pearling cones before it is sent to the brush. 
6 Low-grade rice that was heavily milled; polish abnormal. 
6 Remilling mixed, lot of broken rice; polish abnormal.
