These conditions tended to decrease the stand and 130 increase the proportion of. Barren plants. It is believed, however, that the distribution of the replications was such that comparisons among the selfed lines or crosses in any unit are accurate within the limits of their probable errors. On the other hand, close comparisons can not be made safely between the crosses and their parents or between the selfed lines or crosses in different units.
