can be obtained, and thus the value of Z_{t°} for any required

temperature. The numbers calculated for gums all point to a diminution

in viscosity up to a certain point, and then a gradual increase. A

comparison of some of the figures actually obtained in some of these

experiments, compared with the calculated figures for the same

temperature, shows their general agreement.
