over the new Experimental Station at "Slob,"
belonging to the West Indian Sugar Factory,
and were readily shown all around on the
Station by the Manager, Mr.. Gedde. and his
Assistant, Mr.. Niels Christoffereen
The object or the station is chiefly to find
new methods Of growing canes, so that this
product can be easier and cheaper grown
than now, and to fluid out if corn (1Iaize)
aud Imphee can be grown and used to adj
vantage.
To begin where we began: the Managers
residence is the old "Slob" house, which has
been rebuilt by young Mr.. H, 7. Hen2iksen,
of Christiansted It is a fine looking build
ing and we trust that it may not 90 back to
ruins in a hurry. The Assistant is livingi in
a bext little house by himself. The station
itself consists of a stable constructed on Da-
nish principles, with outlet and reservoir for
urine from the live stock, which has hitherto
been entirely ignored as a manurIng factor,
but which is much used in Denmark. The
manure is carefully collected twice daily ana
stocked in a specially constructed manure
house, until he fields are ready for it. On
stable are 16 bulls when they are not used
for the daily work, and next to this stable is
one of the usual Cruzian pens, open, and
where the manure is left to be exposed to
the air, just as it is done all over in St. Croix,
and in which way it consequently cannot
have the same manurial value as with the
new method. The effect Oh the fields of the
two kinds of manure will then be compared.
The intention is also to import a chaff cutter,
on which to cut fodder for the stock. 1t has
also been tried to advantage, we were told,
to use Danish yokes for the bulls instead of
the now used much too heavy and old, finnish
ones. We also mention as a curiosity that
during the recent strike the two Danes
on the Station, Messrs. Gedde and
Christoffersen, cut imphee for the stock
with a Danish seythe, just as we NOV
grass in Denmark. This goes to shows that
when the fields are prepared accordingly it
is very we'll possible to use one man with q
scytbe instead of the now used gang of grass
cutters with ~grass-knives. On the station,
are, of course, all the latest agricultural ma
, 1916-04-15

chimes with which to cultivate the soil, such
as ploughs, harrows, etc.
We now go out in the field.
At present about 40 acres OF land are u,ed
for experiments, but the intention i TO take
III another 40 acres when the canes which
stand on the ground are taken off. These
40 acres are divided in plots, in which are
planted the different sorts of canes, impbee,
sweet potatoes, maize and so on. The sugar
plants are planted alternately on the fiat
ground and between banks, as is the usual
method here in the island. The expert
ments show already to a great extent that
the plants Of the fiat field are much more
constant and powerful than those planted at
the very same time and under the same cen
dltlons between banks, and during the later
times dryness. This is QUE great result of
the experiments.
The maize are planted in rows with diffe-
rent width between the lows and space be-
tween the individual plants. They are look
ing fue and that the corncobs are ripe now
we consider a great result, when we know
that they were planted between Christmas
and New Year, and since then have had onlv
about 70 lines of rain. Here we take the
liberty to remark that the Isl Maize Show
IN Antigua ba5 jdst been closed, having
turned out to be a great success, PROMISING
much for the future. We shnll in a day or
two give q condensed report on same Show.
1t is both a pleasure and OF much iustruc-
ton to pay a visit to this establishment, and
we would advise all interested in agriculture
to take a trip out there and see the results
whice Mr.. Gedde and bis Assistant have OBJ
tained. We are not the least in doubt that
the Experimental Station at "Slob" will lay the
foundation to a rational change in the work
ing of the soil in St. Croix and through this
attain great results in the agricultural
domain w.. H. NecS, AprH II.
