A comparison between the A and Bi females is like-wise instructive. It is rather surprising to find the A lot pos-sessed of decidedly longer tails, both relatively and absolutely,than even the warm-room section of the Bi lot, while in earlength the fomier likewise considerably exceeds the latter. INFLUENCE, HEREDITY, CORRELATION, GROWTH 371 As regards foot-length, the A ammals are- intermediate be-tween the two Bi series, though nearer, on the whole, to the warm-room than the cold-room condition. Of course the mice of theA generation, being the parents of the B animals, were consid-erable older than the latter at the time of these measurements,but even
