toward the west side of the field. For this reason the field was 
divided into two sets of plots, each one-twenty-fourth acre in 
size, and the order of the plots in one of the two sets was 
reversed, as shown in the diagram. In considering the results 
of the experiments the data from both plots of the same num- 
ber are combined and the results considered as if obtained from 
one plot one-twelfth acre in size. In this way errors due to 
the irregularities of the soil are partially eliminated. 
Diagram illustrating the arrangement of the plots tn the sor test, 
and the kinds of fertilizers and amounts per acre 
used on each plot. 
Unfertilized strips separate the adjoining plots.
