The sample isthen set in hot water at i30°-i4o° F. to bring it to the right tem-perature for reading. A pair of dividers is generally used formeasuring the fat column in taking the reading. With milk,the reading is taken from the highest to the lowest point, that is,the meniscus of the fat column is Fig. 22. Fig. 23. Fig. 24.
