STATEMENT OF WALTER SMITH, METHUEN, CABBAGE CROP. 



The crop of 1890 was a light crop of grass, not more 

 than 800 per acre. The crop of 1891 was the same. There 

 was a crop of grass fed off this spring and the land was 

 ploughed the first of June, seed sown from the 18th to the 

 20th of June. They were manured in the hill with a mix- 

 ture of wool waste, night soil and horse manure, about five 

 cords to the acre. The crop has not all been gathered yet, 

 so we have measured 1 square rod, and the crop is esti- 

 mated from that rod.
