NOTES.1. The specific gravity of a substance (solid or liquid) is the ratio between the weight of any volume of the substance and the weight of a like volume of distilled water at its greatest density; consequently, since a cubic centimeter of distilled water at its greatest density weighs one gram, the weight of any substance may be found if its specific gravity and volume are known.

2. A cubic foot of water weighs 621 lb., or 1000 oz.

3. A bushel contains 2150.42 cu. in.

4. A gallon contains 231 cu. in.
