Mainiiioth and Matthews varied in composition more in the direction of 

 storage losses by respiration, because their earliest analyses were the highest. 



Chipman and Pride were the only varieties from Massachusetts represent- 

 ed by samples containing less than 3 per cent of sugar, and in each case the 

 sample appeared immature in color as well as in chemical compcsition since 

 the berries were only partially colored. 



A possible cause of variation between samples of a given variety is an 

 impure strain or mixture of varieties in a sample. When sorting the berries
