On the statistical analysis of worm counts in chickens

Some distributions of A. galli in experimentally infected chickens are shown to be well approximated by the negative binomial law. This fact suggests certain statistical procedures which, when applied to an experiment involving Phenothiazine, yields results which are not obtained in as clearcut a fa...
