It is scarcely necessary to discuss separately the correlation table for each of the next eight generations, Tables 6 to 13. The number of offspring rises to a maximum (1,408) in generation 8, Table 8; then declines to less than 200 in generation 13. But as this generation and the preceding one are still being produced, it is probable that the number recorded will be considerably increased before the generation is complete. The means of parents and offspring and the other statistical constants for the several generations can be most easily compared by reference to Table 14. Leaving out of consideration the exceptional generation, 2, the following will be observed: (1) The mean of the selected parents has steadily advanced throughout the series, as has also that of their offspring. (2) The variability (standard deviation) of the parents as a group has decreased somewhat as increase in numbers made a more rigid selection possible; that of the offspring has undergone a similar change. (3) The correlation between parents and offspring has not materially changed. The average of the correlation coefficients for the entire series is 0.194, for the last three generations it is 0.175, for the three preceding generations it is 0.141, for the three which precede those it is 0.185, while for the first four generations it is 0.253. In every case the correlation is positive—that is, the higher-grade parents have higher-grade offspring and _vice versa_. (4) The offspring as a group average lower in grade than their parents—that is, their mean _regresses_ on that of the selected parents, but because of the higher mode about which variation occurs in each generation certain of the offspring are of higher grade than their parents. Thus an elevation of the grade of the parents in the next generation is made possible. (5) With the selection of more extreme parents, the absolute regression of the offspring has not increased, but on the contrary has slightly diminished—that is, the advance made by the parents is retained by their offspring.
