REPORTS OF DEPARTMENTS. 71 



nearly one-half in my department, I would, however, recommend that 10 centa 

 per honr be paid for maximum of regular and extra labor for the coming year. 



The manure has been charged to the fields at 50 cents per load, and in mak- 

 ing compost one cubic yard has been called a load, and charged accordingly. 

 Tlie plaster bought cost $7 50 per ton, and was so^m at the rate of about 40 

 lbs per acre. The i)lan of crops for the coming j^ear is : 



No. 1. Soiling crops. 



No. 2. Oats, or Corn, or both. 



No. 3. Oats, followed by Wheat. 



No. 4. Soiling Corn, Eye, and Pasture. 



No. 5. Meadow.
