The  barleys  were  adjudged  to  be  an  exceedingly  good  lot 
for  the  season,  and  to  be  mostly  above  average.  The  amount 
of  offal  corn  was  small. 
Rotation  II.  1910,  Wheat — after  Mustard. 
The  land,  after  cultivating  and  ploughing,  was  drilled  on 
November  8,  1909,  with  9 pecks  per  acre  of  “ Square  Head’s 
Master”  wheat.  It  was  never  a strong  crop,  but  suffered 
much  from  frost,  the  crop  being,  all  along,  a light  and  patchy 
one.  It  was  in  bloom  by  June  28,  cut  August  23,  carted  and 
stacked  September  5,  and  threshed  October  27.  The  results 
are  given  in  Table  IV.,  p.  330. 
On  the  upper  half  (sheep-feeding),  maize  meal  (plot  2)  gave 
nearly  2 bushels  more  than  decorticated  cotton  cake  (plot  1), 
this  being  little  more,  however,  than  from  the  plots  (3  and  4) 
where  no  cake  or  corn  had  been  fed  in  1907.  It  would  seem, 
therefore,  that  by  the  time  this,  the  fourth  crop  of  the  rotation, 
was  reached,  the  manurial  effects  of  the  cake  and  corn  fed  on 
the  land  had  been  practically  worked  out.
