TRA\8 ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS OF 



[Ses 



The two young Sycamores, Xos. 71 and 74, much alike 

 in size and situation, agree closely in all their amounts and 

 proportions. The still younger Xo. 67, although greatly 

 inferior in its amounts owing to transplantion, nevertheless 

 resembles the other two in the main ijroportions, and so does 

 the older Xo. 28. The p.c. of the first half-season pre- 

 dominates slightly over the second in all four, and its 

 variation is only from 52-5 to 57-5 p.c. June is the best 

 month in all, the proportion varying from 39*5 to 45 p.c, 

 although the amount varies from 014 in the transplanted 

 Xo. 67 to 0-44 in X^o. 7l. 



No. 21. Cytisus Laburnum. No. 19. Crat.egus Oxyacantha. 



Cytisus Lahurnv.m. The second half-season exceeds the 

 first, but only slightly. July is the best month, with 0-21 of 

 annual average amount, and 25'5 p.c, but the increase is 

 unusually well distributed over the six montlis, and the pro- 

 portions for June and August are but little inferior to that 

 of July. The proportions of April, 7 p.c., and Sept., 8-5 p.c, 

 are high. 



Crata:(jus Oxyacantlta. The second half-season pre- 

 dominates, with 58 p.c. June is the best month, with 0'30 

 of annual average amount, and 28 p.c. 



The proportion for Sept., 11'5, is unusually high, and the 

 tree is further remarkable because the proportion for August, 

 24-5, exceeds that for July, 22 p.c
