EFFECT OF NITROGENOUS FERTILIZERS. 14% 
In the Table 14 are shown the total and the relative 
yield per acre of the various food constituents in the corn and 
stover. The figures in this table are the averages in bold face 
type in tables 29 and 30, pages 176 and 179, which gives the 
type in Tables 29 and 30, pages 176 and 179, which give the 
separate analyses of the several experiments with corn. 
‘From this table it will be observed that the nitrogenous 
fertilizers had a relatively more marked effect upon the yields 
of protein than upon the yields of dry matter. Thus, in the 
grain, the total yield of dry matter with the use of 75 pounds of 
nitrogen per acre was only slightly larger than the yield from 
upon the composition of oats (grain).
