The great object of those who have devised means
Of packing seeds for distant journeys has in general
been 20 exclude the sir, and all other considerations
have been subordinate TO this. Enclosure In bottles
Theoretically sealed In papers thicky coated with

derived from excluding the air and the disadvantage is
very great for the effect OF excluding the air Is in
cude whatsoever free moisture seeds may contain or be
surrounded by this moisture is sufficient in high tenn
peraiures either 10 deprive the seed Of ts carbon of

Of the iced coats, which have no vitality themselves
