boys In the contest conducted by the
State Board Of Agriculture raised
over 100 bushels per acre, and Of
these, II raised over 120 bushels.

conducting a series OF experiments In
which II Is designed to show the effect
Of various soil treatments. Open yard
manure, treated and untreated. stall
manure. treated and untreated, and
chemical fertilizers are compared. The
average yield Of corn for fifteen.year
period on the untreated plots was 34.4
bushels. Stall manure, untreated. pro-
duced an average Of 59.4 bushels for
the same period and when reinforced
with acid phosphate an average Of
G5.6 bushels was maintained. Open
yard manure, untreated, produced an
average OF $40 bushels, and when
treated the yield was 6i.9 bushels.
