B. EXPEEIMEXTS OK BaRLET AFTER WhEAT. 
(VVhitlikgham.) 
The selected field was near field A, but the soil was stiffer 
and apparently better. Its chemical composition is given in the 
column marked B, page 255. 
It is considerably richer in phosphoric acid and in potash 
than A, and has more lime. 
The previous wheat crop had been manured with 15 loads of 
dung per acre.
