Germination and growth normal. 



About two-thirds of the seed grew; 

 it was slow in germinating but 

 the plants made a taller and 

 more stocky growth, were very 

 rusty, and much later in matur- 

 ing than where the seed was 

 treated with less lysol. 



Less than one-fourth of the seed 

 grew and that gave plants like 

 the next above. 



About one-twentieth of the seed 

 grew. It gave plants like those 

 in the 3 per cent treatment. 



Only a few seeds grew ; the plants 

 were like those in the 3 per cent 

 treatment. 



Germination and growth normal. 



Very few seeds grew and two- 

 thirds of these did not produce 

 heads. 



Even fewer seeds grew than in the 

 one next above and one-fourth 

 of these did not produce heads.
