RESEARCH.
11. Tin in Wolfram.-The method worked out last year and mentioned in the last Report has been further tested on the samples sent for analysis and in every case very good agreement has been obtained, confirming the reliability of the method.
New Territory Waters.-The work on the village wells and spring waters of the New Territory mentioned in the last Report was completed, some seventy samples in all being exhaustively examined. It is hoped that the results will be ready for publication shortly.
Camphor. Further work on Chinese camphor has been carried out and the results obtained have been compared with those of a firm of London analysts who will shortly publish a paper incorporating some of the figures obtained here. These cover chiefly the Iodine value of Camphor and the various Camphor Oils.
