The plants had been set, 33 inches apart each way, about June 

 25. On one side of the field there was laid off an exact acre, 

 twice as long as wide, and containing 54 rows of 108 plants each. 

 The acre was so located as to cover 27 rows of each of two 

 varieties, Danish Ball Head and Henderson's Succession. It 

 was divided, crosswise, into two equal parts — one part to be 

 treated and the other used as a check. By this arrangement each 

 half acre contained 27 rows (54 plants each) of Danish Ball Head 

 and 2j rows of Henderson's Succession. (See the accompanying 

 diagram.)
