In Nova Scotia the following regions are marked out, proceeding 

 from South to North, and from East to West, as orderly as possible :

When the belts (b) and (c) — Low and High Inlands — are not 

 sufhciently distinct, they may be combined in any " region " into 

 'one (belt b c) — Inlands. There will then be but two belts to be con- 

 sidered, " Coast " and "Inlands." 



Averaging Local Phenochrons for " Region " or " Belt " 



Phenochrons 



If ten or fewer good phenological observation schedules can be 

 selected from those belonging to any given belt, they may be averaged 

 as indicated in the columns within. If there are not ten from each 

 belt, then it may be better to combine two belts, or if necessary, three 

 belts, on the form within. In the latter case, the average will be the 

 " region " phenochrons. When a full sheet can be made out for each 

 belt, the average of the phenochrons for the three " belts " will give 

 the phenochrons of the " region ". Finally, the phenochrons of each
