print and properly distribute the monthly
meteorological and crop reports. He
argued that If the general government set
aside $4,000 annually for the federal
weather service of Indiana the general
assembly ought TO contribute not less than
81 900 for the state service.
Sylvester Johnson OF irvinRton cited
differences between the observations

but one experiment in this line, and was
led to believe that such a mulch was not
beneficial TO the character of soil used in
the trial.
This failure was in line with the results
OF several experiments at the Ohio ex-
pertinent station. and the inference is that
no farmer should mulch extensively until
he has tested the value OF dressing OF
straw on half an acre. Generally speak
ing. a mulch is a good thing for all unculti-
waited crops on dry soils. but it is vet
question whether wheat is as responsive to
j benefits as most other plants. In the
cases cited there was an absolute loss the

gree.
