Showing- the growth of corn in 1910 on Plats 12 (NPK) and 13 (O) of Charlotte Field No. 2. The marked difference in growth on Plat 12, receiving a complete fer- tilizer, over Plat 13, to which no fertilizer was applied, was due largely to the nitrogen/ in the fertilizer mixture. use of dried blood held in check the cowpeas in their growth. Then again, too, the ranker growth of com on those plats receiving the nitro- gen carrier did undoubtedly affect the growth of the peas. The stand of rye in 1911 was good on all the plats, but made decidedly the best growth on those plats receiving an application of blood. The rankest growth was made on plats 8, 9, 12 and 14. The stand of crim- son clover in the spring of 1914 was poor over all the plats, it not being over 40 per cent on March 21. The growth of the clover was slightly better on the nitrogen plats than on any of the others, the poorest growth of all being made on plat 13, The following table gives the fer- tilizer treatment, and results recorded on this Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original North Carolina.
