VEGETABLES AND MISCELLANEOUS CROPS. 
14. Apples, fruit, variety Baldwin.—Three miles east of Marl- 
boro, N. H. Soil, Gloucester stony loam. It was quite difficult to 
dry this sample enough to be ground. A moisture determination was 
made on the partially dried sample, then the whole sample was dried 
at about 150° C. until it became crisp enough to grind. The total 
loss in weight was recorded, and a suitable correction applied in 
calculating the results. 
15. Beets—Tubers only. Three miles east of Marlboro, N. H. 
Soil, Gloucester stony loam. This sample had been stored in a cellar 
over winter. The small amounts of silica, iron, and aluminum show 
that there was little soil contamination. 
16. Cabbage—Two and one-half miles northwest of Charlotte, 
N. C. Soil, Cecil clay. This sample was a small head, weighing 
about a kilogram, and the upper part of the stem.
