In 10 per ct. sugar solution.—- The same varieties were tried in 
10 per ct. sugar solution with the following details: Of Grein 
Golden, out of an estimated 150 grains one germinated, growth 
short and weak; Missouri Reisling, 20 per ct. grew; Barry none; 
Rogers No. 82, about 75 per ct. good and strong; Lucile, at least 
80 per ct., a mass of growth. 
In 20 per ct. sugar solution.—In 20 per ct. sugar, Grein Golden 
shows 2 in approximately 250; Missouri Reisling 25 per ct., 
Barry, none; Rogers No. 32, 90 per ct.; Wyoming, about 5 per ct. 
(growth weak); Lucile, 95 per ct. 
On July 2 cultures were made in 20 per ct. sugar solution with 
pollen of Black Eagle, Triumph, Massasoit, Brilliant, Roscoe, 
Lindmar, Hexamer and Bailey. Notes taken the following day 
show: Black Eagle, none budded or grown; Triumph, practi- 
cally all budded, but only about 10 per ct. grown to any length; 
Massasoit, little budding and no growth; Brilliant, all budded, 
60 per ct. grown; Roscoe, none budded and none grown; Lind- 
mar, about 69 per ct. budded and 10 per ct. grown; Hexamer, no 
buds and no growth; Bailey, about 60 per ct. budded and 5 per 
ct. grown. The foregoing results are tabulated below:
