Five plots received 5 lb. of copper sulphate per acre, five received l5 lb., and five 30 lb. per acre, while the fifth group of five plots was given a mixed dressing of 15 lb. of copper sulphate, i5 lb. of manganese sulphate, 20 lb. of magnesium sulphate, 2o Ib. of ferrous sulphate, 5 lb. of ziilc sulphate, and 5 lb. of borax sulphate.
