ton consisted in the addition OF wa
ter or in the subtraction OF cream, but
as a rule this matters little to the con-
sumer. What he wants TO know Is
whether or not he had what he paid
for
The suspected milk is stirred with a
spoon. in order TO disseminate into
the whole liquid the cream which may
have come to the surface. Then one
volume OF milk Is poured into fifty
volumes OF water zone fluid ounce

Is lighted In n dark room. The expo
rimenter takes an ordinary drinking
glass with tolerably fiat and even

candle. at a distance OF about one
foot from 1t, so as to be able to see
the fame CT the candle through the
bottom OF the glass. He then pours
slowly and carefully the diluted milk
into the glass.
The fame becomes less and less
bright as the level OF the liquid rises
into the glass. The flame is soon re-
duced to a dull white spot. A little

avoid pouring an excess. and the
fame becomes absolutely invisible.
All that remains to be done is to
measure the height OF the liquid in the

The reader has already understood
that the process is based upon the
close relation between the capacity OF
milk and the number of fatty cor

taken before and after skin ming. and

determined with the thermometer
Thus applied, the density test re-
quires lactodensimeter, a thermome-
ter. and a creamometer. and the test
requires twenty-four hours, whila the
result is not much more accurate than
