Report of Trials for 1888. 



The varieties of potates were planted this year in soil similar in 

 character to that on which the potatoes were planted in 1887. The 

 land had been cropped the previous year. At the time of planting 

 600 pounds of a reliable superphosphate were applied per acre. 



The varieties were planted in rows three feet apart and 180 feet 

 long, each row representing one-eightieth of an acre. Otherwise 

 the conditions were the same as for the preceding year.
