It. must be conceded, however, that we do not as yet know the limits 
within which our figures shall vary as between numerous duplicates of 
the seed from the same grower, taken from the same package, and 
sprouted under like conditions. We have trial of seed from the same 
grower, and the samples from the same crop, germinated under iden- 
fical conditions, or rather within the same apparatus, and the results 
are below.
