92 CHRISTISON—OBSERVATIONS ON 
B. Results in the Species Individually. 
In treating the Second Part of this Division of my subject, a 
tabular view of the results, followed by remarks, is given for 
each species. Each Table is constructed so as to show, first, the 
amount and p.c. for each month and for the half-seasons in the 
single tree of the set 1892-95. The corresponding p.c. for the other 
sets are then given. The last column gives the girth of the 
trees at the end of the observations upon them. The remarks 
that follow bear chiefly upon the proportions of the half-seasonai 
increase, and of the monthly increase. Finally, the highest record 
for each month is given, to show the capacity of growth of each 
species in each month under the most favourable circumstances. 
The detailed records for the sets of 1884-87 and 1888-91, 
formerly published, could not be reproduced here without unduly 
swelling the bulk of this Paper, but many quotations from them 
occur in the text.
