Fig. 8.—Saml cultures of Sinapis nigra, Aug. 30, without nitrates. parts of nitrate of potassium were replaced by one part of chloride of potassium at the beginning of the experiment, and one part applied later on. Consequently these plants had no other nitrogen than the free nitrogen of the atmosphere. During rainy weather glass plates were put over the tops of the pots to keep them from receiving the traces of HN03 in the rain. As there was hardly any rain during the whole period of tbe experiment, there was practically no error from this cause. Of these pots, pot 1 containing Sinapis alba.
