New Implements. 



13. The only new implement that received trial was a farm- 

 made winnower. 



The machine is economically useful only when there are no 

 natural winds or when these are uncertain. It can winnow about 

 3,000 Ibs. of grain in a day of 9 hours costing per day 8 to 

 12 annas. 



Experiments made off the Station. 



14. The sugarcane crop near Chalisgaon belonging to Mr. 

 Garud was treated with the following nitrogenous fertilizers, viz., 

 ammonium sulphate and sodium nitrate singly as well as in com- 

 bination with different quantities of farm-yard manure. 



The special manures were applied in two doses one before and 

 the other after the first rainfall.
