Better barley Does drying barley seeds in a kiln increase the yield of barley? A famous experiment by William S. Gosset (who discovered the t distributions) investigated this question. Eleven pairs of adjacent plots were marked out in a large field. For each pair, regular barley seeds were planted in one plot and kiln-dried seeds were planted in the other. The following table displays the data on yield (lb/acre).35 Plot Regular Kiln 1 1903 2009 2 1935 1915 3 1910 2011 4 2496 2463 5 2108 2180 6 1961 1925 7 2060 2122 8 1444 1482 9 1612 1542 10 1316 1443 11 1511 1535 (a) How can the Random condition be satisfied in this study?
