This year, as in the past, the New Hampshire College Agri-

 Board of Agriculture in an inspection of the commercial fertil-

In accordance with the public statutes, the collection of sam- 

 ples of the different fertilizers has been in charge of the Secre- 

 tary of the Board of Agriculture, Hon. N. J. Bachelder, 

 who has been assisted by Mr. James A. Foord ; while the 

 chemical analyses have been performed under the direction of 

 the chemist of the Experiment Station, Prof. Fred W. Morse, 

 who has had for assistants, Messrs. Chas. D. Howard, Chas. 

 W. Vickery, and Ernest B. MacCready. 



The following towns were visited by the agent of the Board
