36 MAINE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. I915. 



It is proposed to continue the selections within certain o^f 

 these pure lines upon a somewhat different plan. It is hoped 

 that by these methods it will be possible to analyze the data by 

 an individual rather than a statistical method. Such an analysis 

 was attempted with the present figures, but it was found that 

 they are inadequate for that purpose. It is believed that po^ssi- 

 "bly some new evidence can be brought to bear upon the selec- 

 tion question in that -manner.
