the second week in June. The corn
on the plats to which kaInit or straw
was applied made continuous growth,
and after the middle of July these
plats could readily be distinguished
from distance by a darker color than
that shown on the plats on which no
fertilizer was used. The treated plats
did not ripen as early as the others,
and the fodder was slightly damaged
by frost on September 81, although no
injury was done to the ears. The corn
was cut from the different plats De-
tober and husked October 10. The
yield and treatment are shown in the
