Critics Call for Real Information at Agricultural College
The writer voices misgivings about state funding and management of the Agricultural College. He urges concrete data on costs, farm expenses, and practical results from the experimental farm, including livestock breeding, butter production, and cattle health, to guide state support and policy. The piece laments unanswered questions facing farmers and pleads for rigorous, transparent experiments.

Malt on Wheat Experiment Sparks Agricultural Debate
The article discusses experiments in horticulture and farming, highlighting Prof. Bude's work on raising crops and stock, and evaluating malt on wheat as a feed and disease control method. It notes farmers’ losses from cattle illness, seeks practical, experiment-based advances, and recounts salt tests on wheat with mixed outcomes and field observations.

The Case for Seed Selection and Plant Improvement
The text argues that homegrown seeds often rival or surpass distant imports, and that careful selection, preservation, and cultivation raise seed quality and crop yields. It emphasizes farmers maintaining best specimens, saving seed, and gradually improving crops, with parallels to selective breeding in animals and a call for modest investment in knowledge over labor.

Soil stirring and capillary action in moisture conservation
An analysis of how stirring soil affects evaporation and moisture retention. Experiments from Grandeau at Nancy show different evaporation rates in varied soil setups. The piece argues that moderate loosening aids vapor condensation and moisture uptake, while overly compact or loose soils hinder capillary transfer.
