Considering first the effect of the fertilizers on the barley, it will 

 be seen that the calculated gain of grain is largest with the acid 

 South Carolina rock and least with the stable manure, while the 

 fine ground South Carolina rock is mid way between the two. 



With the calculated gain of straw the order is reversed, the 

 stable manure giving the highest gain of straw, fine ground South 

 Carolina rock ranking next, while the acid South Carolina rock 

 stands lowest. 



But in whatever light the figures be examined we can but come
