I 



At the close of the season (1892) it was decided to raise 

 hereafter other crops than grasses upon phits 11, 13, 14, 15, 

 16 and 20. For this reason they were ploughed after the 

 rowen had been secured, while plats 12, 17, 18, 19 and 21 

 remained in grass for another season. 



2893. —Plats 11, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 20, which had been 

 used for several preceding years for the production of 

 grasses, were at an early date prepared to serve for experi- 

 ments with several prominent varieties of potatoes. They 

 were ploughed in August, 1892, and were again ploughed for 

 the final preparation April 25, 1893.
