Extract

This paper is a continuation of Part I in a strict sense, and deals with the methods and samples considered previously. More prolonged immersion tests have enabled a more accurate estimate to be reached as to the relative values of the methods of preservation. One new preservative has been tried, an oily substance sold as “Neo-Russigen,” a sample of which was supplied by the Ministry of Fisheries; in the absence of any chemical analysis of this there is no guarantee that subsequent supplies will approximate to the sample received, to which alone must the data presented be considered to apply.
