analyzed the essential oil of Japanese peppermint (Mentha arvensis var. piperescens) obtained from two strains of that plant grown in Florida during four successive years. The menthol content of the oil was somewhat low, the average values on the two strains being 67 per cent. and 71 per cent., respectively. The menthol content was fairly uniform from year to year.
