The fourth successive crop Of wheat
has just been harvested from the land
devoted TO fertilizer tests at the Ohio
Experiment Station. The plan OF this
experiment is briefly as follows:
twenty-five plots, OF one.tenth acre
each. are laid out on piece o clay land;
Letween these plots, in pairs. tile drains
are laid; every third plot is let con-
tinuohsly without manure OF any sort.
but upon the remaining plots various
iertilizing materials are applied each
year, either alone or in combination. as
shown 10y the following table The
superphosphate used is dissolved
lone-black. and is used in every
case at the rate Of 3::D pounds yer acre.
Muriate OF potash is used ut the rate of
50 pounds per acre. and nitrate of soda
at the rate oi 100 pounds per acre, except
ON plots l2nnd II. where it is used Mt
the rate OF 32O and $50 pounds respect
lively. Sulphate of ammonia is used on
plot "a. in such quantity rs to give the
same amount o: nitrogen rs that contain
ed in l6O POUNDS Of nitrate OF soda. On
plot Il dissolved Carolina rock is used
instead of dissolved one.black, and on
pot Is. Thomas or basic Stag is used, the
aim being to make these plots compar.
able with plot II.
The table gives the yield FER acre and
increase per acre from each fertilizer

Ii We divide plots to 49, inclusive of
this experiment nto two groups, those
which have received suDerphosphate
and those which have not, we shall have
nine plots in the first group and ten in
the second. Tn average yield of the
first group is 30 | bushels of grain and
4,O57 pounds of straw per acre. and of
the second. 81 5 bushels of grain and q
SD pounds of straw. difference in fa.
vor OF the suprrphosphate pots of 6
bushels OF grain and $50 pounds of
straw. The 320 pounds Of superphosphate
would cost. if bought by the ton in Ohio
about 81; hence wheat would have to
bring dollar bushel and straw about
two dollars and q half rer ton in order
that the increase should pay for the
fertilizer.
This is on the supposition that all the
increase seen is due to the superphos-
phate, a suppositicn which the fact.
will not warrant rs in other seasons in
this same series ct experiments nitrate
oi soda has unmistably produced n
greater effect than superrhosphate
while last year there was an absolute
loss on every plo. dressed with super
phosphate.
A study of the column showing the
increase of straw shows that super
phosphate is the prime factor in pro-
ducing that increase and this was
as plainly shown last year as this The
average yield Of the eight unfertilized
plots was 26.5 bushels of grain and
2.673 pounds of straw--almost exactly
100 pounds OF straw to bushel of grain
Could we have maintained this pro-
portion of grain to straw on the
iertilizel plots the increase on the
best plots would have been ten to
fifteen bushels Fer acre, instead of two
and haif bushels. and we confidently
expected the increase to reach nearly or
quite ten bushels, jndging from the ap-
pearance before harvest
This experiment forcibly re-inforces
the lesson taught by all the other ex-
periments OF this series, which is that
reliance upon the eye alone in Judging
Of the effect of fertilizer is sure to mis-
lead.

TWO WHEELING MURDERS.

Baker, After a Quarrel, Shoots His Wife
Spouse Wouldn't Kiss Him-A Shanty
Boat Tragedy.
WHEELING, April 81 Special ]-Shortly
after 2 o'clock this morning William Maier,
a German baker living in the second story
of No. 14O9 Woods street, shot his wife
Marie, beautiful young woman, killing
her instantly. Four shots were fired, all
taking effect, and any one of the wounds
would have been fatal Katie Yoho, aged
II, Mrs. Maier's sister, was also shot in the
right hand.
Maier escaped, throwing his revolver
away as he ran, and though the officers
have secured the city and country, he has
not been caught. He was last seen at day.
light walking toward Pittsburg, as he went
through Elm Grove. The inquest was post
poned until tomorrow, owing to the serious
condition of the child, the only eyewitness.
Maier had often threatened to kill his wife,
and had purchased two revolvers for that
purpose. This morning, his sister-in-law
saws, he asked Marie to kiss him after q
quarrel, in which he abused her roughly,
and when she refused he drew the pistol
and began to shoot. The pistol was 3S-
