frozen a part of the tiine. During warmer weather the loss must 

 have been 3^et greater. G-2 though accumulating only during three 

 nights, seems to have lost relatively more nitrogen than B-2, perhaps 

 because the house was much warmer than the one from which 

 samples B came; although this seems an insufficient explanation 

 to account for so large a difference. 



Examination of Table 1, especially comparison of the samples 

 B-1 and B-2 shows that the fact that nitrogen has been lost is 

 obscured by the further fact that there has been an even larger 

 loss of water. The percentage of nitrogen in B-2 (Table 1) is larger
