Extract

In June, 1921, the writer undertook a series of soil analyses in connection with the field trials organised by Dr J. A. Hanley for the Department of Agriculture at the University of Leeds. The soils were of diverse kinds and included samples of most formations from the Carboniferous upwards, most of which were from poor unmanured grass land. They were of obviously low potash content.
