In most instances the phosphorus in the juice was so largely inorganic 
and constituted so large a proportion of the total that the determina¬ 
tion of the latter seemed about as useful as of any portion for furnishing 
indications regarding the relative amount of soil phosphorus at the 
disposal of the turnip.
