As it seems that the experimental field 3, which gave 
the greatest quantity of straw and seed together (27,200 g. 
against 24,500 g. and 24,800 g. in both 2 and 1), has given 
the least quantity of seed,a mistake has clearly been made. 
The most probable error is that a clerical mistake has been 
made in writing 3,770 g. instead of 5,770 g. 
Experimental fields 1 and 2 give an average of. 
; 5,800 1st quality seed.
