APPENDIX A 213 



MARSH AM Peas. We made our experiments with 

 the greatest care, inoculating six rows of peas, planting 

 different sorts. In every case the yield from the inocu- 

 lated rows (we planted fifteen rows in all) is three times as 

 good as from the uninoculated, the pods hung in clusters, 

 and the yield was excellent, and earlier than we have 

 ever had before. 



SWAFFHAM Peas. Result excellent. An exceed- 

 ingly heavy crop. Beyond this, the most noticeable 

 features about the different varieties are that the inocu- 

 lated have continued bearing much longer than usual, and 

 the almost complete freedom from maggots in the pods, 

 and from any appearance of mildew on the foliage. 



NOTTS. 



SOUTHWELL Clover. The clover seed was sown on 

 land which before had failed to produce a crop. The 

 treated seed has come up very thick, much better than 

 the untreated, and there is a fine crop. 



SHROPSHIRE. 



OSWESTRY Vetches. Where the vetches were dressed, 

 your dressing seems to have acted wonderfully, and a 

 fine crop has resulted. 



Peas. Our inoculation experiment has turned out a 

 complete success. We have had a splendid crop. The 

 inoculated crop overtook another crop, not inoculated, 

 by four weeks. 



BRIDGNORTH Peas. The bacteria culture was very 

 successful. The seed peas were treated strictly accord- 

 ing to instructions, and I had a check lot of untreated 

 peas sown parallel (and 4 feet away) to the treated peas. 

 The haulm of the treated peas grew very large, and the 

 foliage was fine, and remained clean and healthy. The
