The average weight per seed is 0-055 gram, and this is identical with the 

 mode. The variation is very wide. If we may con^sider this array as simple, 

 then the standard deviation would be 0-0028, and the co-efficient of variability 

 0-051. The variability is hence very high. I propose to study the correlation 

 between the lint percentage and seed weight, and so determine whether the 

 conclusions of Balls in Egypt m this matter are valid for honjM cotton. The 

 attached cm've (Fig. 11) illustrates the variability of the seed weight.
