Several of the above enumerated more or less reputed fodder 

 plants have been for some years past successfully cultivated upon the 

 fields of the station, as may have been noticed from previous com- 

 munications. Some of them have been raised again during the past 

 season on a becomhig scale to increase our fodder supply for 

 milch cows, etc., as green fodder during summer and autumn, and as 

 ensilage during winter and spring. A summary of our results may be 

 noticed in the following tabular statement; further details are 

 reserved for the coming annual report. The estimate in regard to 

 meadow growth is based on the results obtained by us on exception- 

 ally good grass land (two tons of first cut and one ton of second cut 

 hay). The annual average yield of meadows, for the entire state 

 does not much exceed one ton' of hay.
