of former years as to the amount of crop produced, some being heavier this year for some 
reason, while others have dropped behind their average. This is particularly the case 
with the C. E. F. mixture (1), which this year was considerably lower than crops which 
have been reaped in previous years. This shortage was in the second crop. In three 
records of pravious trials the second crop of the second year has almost equalled the 
July cut, while in 1902 it was over a ton less in amount. It must be borne in mind 
that, in compounding these mixtures, the chief object considered was their value for 
pastures for two (or three) years after being cut for hay for one year (or two).
