Results were measured on the * bulblet crop from the Harbor trials. “There was considerable response to the fertilizers espe cially those containing N-P-K-S as shown by bulblet weights. The minor elements are of doubtful value though not ruled out in this trial. Nitrogen alone was of no value but when used with P-K or P-K-S showed considerable in-1 crease.
