Description

Sectional committee: Physiology

Is unsure whether to recommended for publication in Proceedings or not. There is no fault with the work, as it consists of careful and thorough experiments. The discussion is somewhat speculative. The subject matter is technical and may bot be suited to publication in a Royal Society journal. It may be better placed in an agricultural journal.

[Not published].
