then  placed  in  a  Gooch  crucible  and  by  means  of  suction  were  dried 
in  a  very  short  time. 
Lot  B  was  placed  in  flat  dishes  and  allowed  to  stand  in  the  labo- 
ratory for  several  weeks.  The  berries  became  much  decomposed 
and  developed  a  considerable  growth  of  mold.  When  in  this  con- 
dition the  seed  was  separated  in  a  way  similar  to  that  described 
under  Lot  A.
