I

am

sending

you

herewith our a:nalysis

of the

water samples saved during 1923-24 campaign.

All the waters

show a

nonnal amount

am

analysis of solids exoept Boiler Feed and Press

Wash,

which are high in organic matter, mostly sugar. I

am

not

surprised that this is the case with the Press

Wash

water

as

we

bad maey traces

ot

sugar present during the

campaign

due

to leaky heater tubes.

The:

~

Bo~ler Feed

Water

however was very

sel-dom

contaminated

w1

th sugar and a few

samples

of water

for

our

oan

r,

a.ign sample

must have been taken when heavy traces

were present. I do not think this

sample

is a tair average

for the campaign but am including it to complete the recori.

Yours very truly,

~~

Chief Chemist.
