for the process of acetone recover!
from starch. But fortunately two Eng.

that the mahua flowers contained ace
tone In larger proportions than IT Is
found in any other vegetable substance
that this i~nOhensive bloom was 'ed
time richer In the material In ques-
ton than any known wood. In iael'
the director general Of ordnance iol
