Heavy shading represents heat-damaged corn. (Cargo No. 7.) 122° F. during the voyage, as is illus- trated bj the tem- ^ perature record for |6o thermometer 29. As is shown in Ta- ble 33, sample No. 29, which repre- sents the corn sur- rounding thermom- eter No. 29, tested c. c. in acidity, and pounds in weight per bushel, and contained no sound kernels or any Hold 6 was a little more than half filled with corn. The upper part of the corn be- came badly heat damaged. The corn in this hold as dis- charged ranged from 68° to 122° F. in temperature, to c. c. in acidity, 0 to 61 per cent in ger- mination, 0 to per cent in sound kernels, and 48 to pounds in test weight per bushel. The corn at the sur- face, where the heat could escape, had a temperature of 72° F. when discharged, as is shown by sam- ple No. 64 in fig- ure 51. The corn just under the sur- face gradually in- creased from 63° to. STARBOARD ,.
