with varying amounts of water. In Table 69, the 

 original diffusion is given the relative concentration

 of meat extract (the strongest concentration bearing the relative value 100). 



The outstanding result is that in the more concentrated 

 solutions, growth still continues when it has passed the 

 maximum number (marked by heavy print) in the lower
