ACTUAL YIELD PER PLAT. (POUNDS.) 



QUALITY OF ASH AND FIRE HOLDING CAPACITY. (FIRST YEAR.) 



Second Year. (1895.) The management of the second year's 

 experiment was essentially the same as in the preceding year, as far 

 as arrangement of plats and kind and amount of fertilizer was 

 concerned. The tobacco plants were set out June 11. The cut 

 worms were troublesome making the tobacco uneven in growth, 

 although the ditTerent plats averaged about alike in that respect. 

 The crop was cut and housed August 26th.
