An ABSORBING SUBJECT Mo.
lasses possesses a remarkable power Of
absorption. Some curious facts in re-
lation to this peculiar property have
been recently laid before the London
Medical Society. In 1910, number
of casks Of molasses were slowed away
at the London dochs--weigh Ching in all,
1870 cwt. Three years afterwards
they were weighed again, and there
was found to be an increase Of weight
amounting in the whole to % cwt.
Another lot Of BAT casks was slowed
away in July Of 1910, and on starting
the bungs in 1852, the molasses, spirit
ed up like q fountain. The casks
weighed originally IL cwt. each, and
gained from one to fifty pounds, the
total gain being So cwt. In another
instance, 6s lbs we're gained by some
casks. This wonderful property of
absorbing moisture from the air is said
to be the most powerful in the molas-
ses contained in those casks made of
Quebec pine.
