ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF COTTON 441 This evidence is considered to indicate the close control of thetesting conditions made possible with the dynamic method, andsuggests that the decreases in area in the loops obtained by Sheppardand Newsome may be due to small variations in thermostat tem-perature about a mean value. On absorption this would have theeffect of giving too high a moisture content at equilibrium, due tohysteresis; on desorption the equilibrium value
