The heat continued nearly the fame the reft of that month, and almoft all Auguft. On the 31ft of July, only 10 grains had mot up, and the 1 6th of Auguft there were in all 16 ; after which, not one more rofe : confequently 64 grains out of the 80 never fprouted at all K The 28th of July I lowed 50 grains. Only four of them rofe by the j 6th of Auguft, and not one after. Here were again 46 grains which did not grow at all. The fame day, I fowed 60 grains in another place. The 16th of Auguft; onl...y fix grains had fprouted, and not one plant more ever ap- peared after: confequently here too were 54 grains which never grew. All tbefe grains were fowed in my garden, in exceeding good mould. I was fure that the wheat I fowed was perfectly found, and in every refpecl: capable of growing. It was therefore quite clear, that fo great a number of grains out of the whole, which did not fprout at all, had loft the faculty of growing, by their being parched up by the heat and drynefs oi the earth. To be flill more certain of this, three weeks after I had fowed thefe grains, I watered half of them feveral times ; but to no purpofe: not one of them rofe, and 1 found feveral of them quite whole in the esrth where I had fowed them.
