diagrammatic representation. The location of the field is designated in the 
records of the Station as ‘‘ main farm plat B.” The rows ran east and west, 
the west end of each row being indicated by a Roman numeral. These 
numerals are for convenience of reference (see account following). The capital 
letters heading the sections of each row refer to the budding. For example: 
Row I, Section A, was budded with Windsor; Row I, Section B, with Yellow 
Spanish, precisely as set forth below. The treatments with fungicides which 
each section and subsection received are indicated by the key below Diagram 2.
