The thermo-lactometer (Fig. -4) consists of a stem on which is marked a double scale, one part reading the specific gravity, and the other the temperature on the enclosed thermometer ; a cylindrical body ; and two bulbs, the upper one being the bulb of the thermometer, and the lower one (containing mercury 6.—Vieth's Lactometer. or shot) serving for the adjustment. By its means the tem- perature and specific gravity can be read off from the same instrument. The ordinary lactometer consists of a stem carrying a scale on which the specific gravity is read ; a cylindrical, or globular, body ; and a bulb containing mercury or shot. Soxhlet's lactometer (Fig. 5) contains a scale from 25a (1-025) to 35° (1-035) divided up into suitable divisions (J or J).
