The top photographic reproduction is entitled "The Results of Assisting Nature" and depicts Swedish turnips grown with varying amounts of mineral manure and nitrogenous fertilizers. The bottom illustration is titled "An Over-dose and its Remedy" and depicts a field of barley with the left half being grown on land where lime has amended the soil. The right side did not receive a lime treatment, hence the lack of crop.
