Trace A close study of the two tables will reveal several very strikingpoints. In the increase of growth there is a gradual rise in the numberof inches per day as the plants near forty inches in height. That is,when the plants are smaller the root system has not developed suf-ficiently to secure an abundance of plant food which will push theplant along. It will be seen that this rapidity of growth is kept upuntil the tassel begins to appear in August; then a decided slackeningoccurs. A relative study of the second table with the first shows more rapidgrowth during the days of the highest temperature. However, thegreater factor is the amount of precipitation during these warmerdays. The period from July 15th to 25th inclusive, the amount ofrainfall was inches. With the high temperature plants at thatage utilized this excessive moi
