A, tells where the flax was grown; the number267 indicates the number of times this individual vat hasbeen filled sinee the beginning of the year; 15, &c, inthe margin, denote the days of the month, and the fig-ures opposite are the temperatures, which are taken andrecorded every three hours, as at 6, 9, 12 oclock, &c.
