The experiment still is in its infancy but in tests so far beans, peas, straw berries and other small fruits have grown as well with the permanent 'pavement" mulch as with ordinary cultivation, i The concrete mulch consists of M i-w Ina n t iu I nr)ua u i s r . i i uiivr mm nine to 12 ine ho wide, which cover the grouuo. 'Wim open spaces between them one and one-half Inches m width. The, permanent mulch controls weeds and conserves moisture. It also worms the soli earlier in the spring nnd keeps it warm longer in the full because the blocks absorb the heut or the sun. Rain enters the ground along tlie rows between the blocks. The blocks made of cinders ore covered with asphalt to make them black, so that they wtll absorb as much heat as powlblc. and blocks made of other materials are painted black for the same purpose. Clown ment scientists believe the "pave ment will have no ill effects on tho soil.
