On iL.e remaining five experimental plots the clover was 

 mown only once at the periods mentioned in the subjoined 

 tabular statement of results : — f p. 56 ) 



In the first Table, which gives the composition of the five 

 mowing's, we find, as mi^ht have been expected, that with the 

 advancing season the clover became drier and drier. 



On the 16th of June the clover on plot 7 contained 74 per cent. 

 of moisture, a week later that on plot 8 contained onlv 72i per 

 cenL, and a fortnight later only 65-2 per cent In the week follow- 

 ing the clover apparently gained a good deal of moisture, for on the 

 7th of Jtdv the percentag-e of moisture amounted to 68"7 per cent. 

 This apparent increase, however, I believe was caused entirely 

 by a heavv dew which lav on the clover when it was weighed in 

 the field. At the next mowing we find only 64; per cent., and
