In others, however, there is much chance for judgment in selecting the measuring-point, and observers differ to mm. Nevertheless it is easy to judge of the relative sizes of rings and the only injurious effect is to reduce variations. The cross-identification was very satisfactory, with practically no doubtful cases and only a few
