Excerpt from Proceedings of the Ninth Annual Convention of the Association of American Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations: Held at Denver, Colorado, July 16-18, 1895 In the provisions Of this law, which come under the purview of this section, the stations are required to conduct original researches or verify experiments on at least eight different lines. The first in order in this discussion is: I. The comparative advantages of rotative cropping - This work may perhaps be regarded as purely agricultural, since the yield and market value Of the crops in a rotation may be readily determined without the assistance of the chemist. In many stations the study Of rotation is regarded as incidental to other work, though its importance is emphasized particularly on our stronger lands and in the growth of crops Of a high fertility value. Specific studies are reported as in progress by the Rhode Island, Minnesota, Ohio, Nebraska, Illinois, and Michigan stations. Rhode Island reports six well-planned experiments, the rotation courses ranging from three to six years, with and without the nitrogen gathering leguminous crops and adapted to improved methods of cropping. In Nebraska a careful study is being made relative to the place of the sugar beet in the rotation, while in Minnesota the relation Of rotation to soil fertility, both as to the form and amount Of plant food removed, is the subject of investigation. These investigations maybe regarded as new, and it is certain that the data Obtained will have a wide application and add much to the somewhat meager fund of exact information on these points.
