There seems to be no reason to doubt, from a comparison of the 

 results of the first two tests with those of the third, that the marked 

 difference in corresponding rates thus evident is due to the different 

 temperature ranges with which the data were obtained. The corre- 

 sponding rates for the first and second tests may be averaged (since 

 these two experiments were performed under relatively similar tempera- 

 ture conditions) and the means thus obtained may be compared with
