on the same area on which it is planned to line out transplants next spring. These 

 two applications of manure coupled with the green crop should create a high 

 state of soil fertility, and produce No. 1 nursery stock for 1930 distribution. 

 No lime was applied this year, and only a modest quantity of dried blood, 

 acid phosphate, and bone meal was considered necessary. Quantities used were 

 as follows: Manure, 430}^ tons; blood, 3,400 pounds; phosphate, 7,500 pounds; 

 bone meal, 1,400 pounds. 



(b) Seed. 



Seed gathered during the year totalled 85 bushels scotch pine, 175 bushels 

 jack pine, walnuts 638 bushels. 



Since the Angus Seed Extracting Plant has been extended, and a seed 

 storage vault erected at that point, the greater quantity of seed in storage is 

 held at the place of extraction.
