Raleigh, August 10, 1910. 



Sijj ; — I submit ill manuscript a report covering experiments with 

 cotton on the Iredell Test Farm for the years 1903-'09, inclusive, 

 together with a discussion of th^ results. B. W. Kilgore and C. B. 

 Williams are responsible for the plans and conduct of the work in 

 1903-'07; B. W. Kilgore and G. M. MacNider 1907-'09. F. T. 

 Meacham had charge of the culture and handling of the crop and E. 

 L. Worthen, G. B. Walker, and W. C. Etheridge did the main work 

 in putting the results in tabular form. B. W. Kilgore is responsible 

 for the form of the report, the conclusions, and the writing of it. 



The June Bulletin contained a like report of experiments with 

 cowpeas on the Iredell Test Farm, and similar reports are to follow, 

 covering the work on the Iredell Test Farm with corn, and on the 

 Edgecombe Test Farm with corn and cotton. 



I recommend the publication of this report as the August Bul- 

 letin. Respectfully,
