The next table (p. 100) shows the weight of topped and tailed 
swedes and the weight of leaves of each plot calculated per acre, 
the average produce of the duplicate plots per acre, the increase 
of each plot per acre over the average produce of the unmanured 
plots, the quantities and kinds of manure used, and the cost of 
the manure per acre. 
In explanation of the preceding results, I have to state that, 
although the land appeared to be fairly uniform, the results of 
these experiments plainly show that the part of Warren Field 
farthest from Crawley Mill farm buildings, and the site of plots 
1 a (ground coprolites) and plot 7 b (bone meal), is not so fertile 
as the plots in the middle of the 6-acre field. 
This is clearly seen in the anomalous result which was 
H 2
