We give below a list of the farmers who have carefully 

 recorded the data relating to their crops and forwarded to us 

 the reports upon which much of the foregoing is based. They 

 have the thanks of the Station for their cooperation and the 

 farmers of the state owe them a debt of appreciation. Many 

 others grew crops that were instructive but some of the data was 

 lacking and reports were not forwarded to the Station, or if 

 forwarded were not sufficiently complete to be available for 

 tabulation.
