For phosphoric acid a decrease of bushels of corn and 3 pounds of seed cotton and an increase of 20 pounds of stover; for potash an increase of bushels of corn and 470 pounds of stover, and 218 pounds of seed cotton; and for lime a decrease of one bushel in the yield of corn, but an increase of 104 pounds of corn stover, and 120 pounds of seed cotton per acre.
