VOLUNTEER EXPERIMENTS. 



From 1904 to 1910, inclusive, the Station collected and re- 

 corded the results of 205 volunteer experiments conducted by 

 farmers in various parts of the State. These experiments were 

 carried out entirely by farmers themselves. Although the data 

 relating to these experiments are probably less reliable than those 

 given for the farmers' business experiments yet they have some 

 value. The details of the experiments have been published in 

 previous bulletins. Only a summary of the results need be given 

 here.
