Table IV. — Fertilizers Used and Average Yields -per Acre on Each Plot 

 for Twenty-three Years. 



Considering the average yields per acre on the different plots, 

 there does not appear to be any difference that could be said 

 to be due to unequal soil or moisture conditions.

The timothy mixture gave the better yield the first year after 

 seeding; since then the fescue mixture has given the larger 

 crop. At the present time there is very little timothy on either 

 plot, it having been replaced very largely by blue grass. The 

 fescue mixture would seem to be the better of the two for use 

 on fields of this character, which are to be kept in grass a 

 number of years.
