ing the vitality of the seed stored in the greenhouse at Ann Arbor and 

 under trade conditions at Mobile. It will be readily seen that the 

 vitality of the seed from the unprotected packages was greatly reduced, 

 while those from the paraffined envelopes and from the bottles germi- 

 nated nearly as well as the controls. These differences are better rep- 

 resented diagrammatically, as follows:

described.

The percentages for Ann Arbor shown in the graphic representations 

 are not the same as those given in the foregoing table. In the diagram 

 they are directly comparable with the results from the Mobile series,
