* By an accident the two families bracketed were recorded together. 



Note. — A glance at Tables III to YI (Experimental P 2 ) on the one hand, and at VII and VIII 

 (Control F ; ) on the other is, alone, sufficient to reveal an enormous difference in the average size 

 of the family, i.e., in the average number of seeds on a plant, in these two groups. The superiority 

 of the former groiip is due to the fact that the seeds which gave rise to the plants recorded in it 

 were sown 9 inches apart, that the plot on which the plants grew was dug two spits deep, a heavy 

 dressing of stable manure being thrown on to the top of the lower spit; whereas the plot on which 

 the Control F 2 families (those recorded in Tables VII and VIII) was only dug one spit deep and 

 received no manure, except a dressing of superphosphate of lime and steamed bone- flour which 

 was also given to the other plot. I have evidence, as yet unpublished, that the proportion of 

 yellow and green seeds is not affected by the nutrition of the plant.
