' It seems probable, in view of the statement in note 2 below, and in the complete ab.scnce of record, that these eggs 

 were not tested for fertility. — Editor. 



= "Note that this failure to develop must be attributed to infertility of the male or female or both; and that fertility 

 usually reaches a full halt in or by the end of August. The last fertile eggs were laid July 28 and 30, and the young were 

 raised and so far doing well."
