MANURIAL EXPERIMENTS.
TESTS IN ENGLAND. An interesting experiment is being carried out at the Midland Agricultural and Dairy College, England, to show the influence of manuring on the railk-produc-injj capacity of poor pastures. There has already been a profit of 15s. per aero 011 the manured plot in two years, and tho effects of the dressing applied are not .exhausted. Another experiment at tho Midland College is said to indicate the advisability of manuring young seeds. A complete manure applied to young seeds in spring has resulted in a substantial profit. It is not generally considered that this cron responds profitably to manuring, but this experiment is confirmed by other trials in Lancashire.
