With the material analyzed in routine a definite relation was noted between the proportion of combined water and silica. The determination of combined water and of iron was all that was necessary to calculate the silica and alumina. The procedure is given and also a curve showing the relation between combined water and silica in the particular material cited. This same short cut chemical analysis is applicable to other days when the curve for the ratio of combined water to silica has been determined for each clay.
