1866, 37-3/4 " 46-1/2 " (_i. e._, 10-7/8 inches more
than the transplanted ones
at starting.)
1886, 118-1/4 " 118-5/8 " (_i. e._, the transplanted
ones had now _regained_
10-1/2 inches.)
1888, 125-1/2 " 123-1/2 " (The transplanted trees in '88
had outgrown the others by
2 ins.)
1890, 133-7/8 " 128 " (The transplanted trees in '90
had outgrown the others by
5-7/8 ins.)
1892, 141 " 131-1/4 " (The transplanted trees in '92
had outgrown the others by
9-3/4 ins.)
Thus proving that merely transplanting is beneficial to oaks;
the benefit, however, being greater when the soil is changed
and more air given.
