Excerpt from The Rothamsted Memoirs on Agricultural Chemistry and Physiology, Vol. 7: Supplementary; Containing Reports of Field Experiments, Experiments on Vegetation, on the Feeding of Animals, &C., &C A large portion of the lecture on the conditions and results of growth of Leguminous Crops, which I gave' at the Colle e last year, was devoted to the illustration of the fact, that both t e scientific interest, and the practical value, of those crops, depended very much on the amount of nitrogen which they contain, and on the sources of their nitrogen; and especially on the great differences in these respects, between them and the representatives of the other families with which they are grown, either in alternation in our rotations, or in association in our meadows and pastures.
