Five different doses of penicillin were administered to rabbits
suffering from a streptococci infection and the number of recovering
rabbits recorded. The rabbits are cross-classified according to
whether the drug is administered immediately or delayed by an hour
and a half. Interest focuses on whether the delay effects the
treatment.
