Experiment Conducted by J. C. Watkins 1^ miles 

 NORTH OF Burnt Corn^ Monroe County. 



The experiments of 1899 and 1900 were made on poor 

 jellowish or chocolate-colored upland sandy soil, with 

 red subsoil. This soil bakes 'badly. 



The rainfall in 1900 was excessive. There was no 

 t)lack rust in either year. 



The table on page 34 gives the yields for 1899 and 

 1900. This is the fourth experiment made by Mr. Wat- 

 kins according to the present plan. (See Bulletin No. 

 197, p. 274). Most of the tests have shown that phos- 

 phate was more important than cotton seed meal and 

 that kainit only increased the yield; however in 1900 

 kainit ^^as the most effective fertilizer.
