   My guess is it's a device to measure the viscosity of a liquid. It has   
   internal graduations to indicate the volume of fluid it contains, and a   
   small drain spout. You fill it to a certain level, unplug the drain hole,   
   and measure the time it takes to empty, from which the viscosity can be   
   calculated (or looked up in a table)
