DEAR S1R-Below you will please
ma statement of oats and wheat
harvested from farm planted under
systom Of DR.. st. Julien Ravenel
Oats--4 10 acres, 21O 9-32
bushels - 81 bushels quarts per
acre.
Whoat-4 acre, 6 1860 bushels
-l2b bushels per acre.
1t IS but proper to state that the
land upon which these crops we're
made was an old field thorouphlv
exhausted, and growing nothing but
broom scdge. 1t was sobby in
many places, owing to lack Of
drainage, there being only shallow
open dram on one side.
ALI these features we're pointed
out to you at an early stage of the
experiment. but as it was not de-
slrable to place these crops under
more favorable circumstances than
is ordinary, it was decided to
give them this very test. Un-
fortunately, the place selected for
the wheat proved wet, and not
adapted to this crop. Tho differ
ences between the growth on llnolls,
and that on spots where water Law
on tho surface after rains, was very
marked. Besides this, the wheat
suffered severely from ravages OF
field mice. The oats did not seem
to suffer near SO much from either
OF these causes still on the higher
pal is of the field, the yield was de-
cldedly finer than on the lower.
Ihc oats on tho two acros plant
ed without any previous treatment
OF peas and ash clement, were poor
in many places, being 50 short anI
thin as to be not worth cutting.
What was taken from this patch was
not threshed, but I do not think the
yield would have gone over
ten bushels to tho acre.
The lands will be put in much
better order this season, and T hope
to give better results.
Respectfully,
j. B. KEoKELEy, Supt.
The measu rement of these crops
was at sixty pounds to the bushel
of wheat, and thirty two pounds TO

mischievous and inefficient legislative
body that ever assembled at Frank
