The details of the method have been studied with especial reference to the effect of the several variables on the accuracy of the results, and of saving time in the procedure. Apparatus is suggested for the handling of samples in quantity without undue consumption of time, and data are presented which show that the modification is about as accurate, in the case of the whole seed, as the seed moisture determination; whereas in the case of mill delinted seed, duplicate results should agree within 0.3 per cent lint, except occasionally wider deviations occur, perhaps as much as 1.0 per cent difference, which are presumably due to variations in the sample.Read More
