MY MOTTOilSCASlI AND CARItV FRED PINDER, Flesherton I^me to Increase Crop Yields. The soils in many parts of Ihe pro- vince are so Uepletod of their liiuo that they are bucomiiig sour oi- luid. This is an Important tact as few. if any, of our farm crop.s can make their best growth on a soil curryini; au insufflcient supply of linu\ This is especially true of leguminous plants and it is probable that the tretiuent "killing out" of clover during the fli-st winter is due to lack ot sufli- cient lime. Lime acts In several ways. It neutralizes the acids fornted in tho soil through the decay of organic mat- ter; it overcomes the tenacity of clay soils, binds sands together and thus improves tho physical condition of both types of soil. Lime is not only au essential constituent of the food of plants, hut it also tends to liber- ale plant food, especially potash, from the insoluble foriii.s in the soil, biing- ins them into an available state. The micro-organisms that live ou the loola of the uitroKeu-Kathering plants cannot work In an acid soil, nor can sonio other forms of organifsins whose fund ion It is to gather niti-ogon. Consequently it is evident that a soil destitute of lime or even very low in lime cannot produce luaximnm crops. Coupled with these facts, wo have the happy condltioti that lime is one of I he cheapest fertilizers, if we may call it such, that can be pur- chased. Lime or Qtiick Lime is made by heating; limestone lock or carbonate of lime, to a mifflcienlly high temper- ature to bleak up tho compound into (ho oxide of lime and carboti-dioxide. Tho former substance is what we know in common terms as "fresh burned Ijiue" or "quick lime." If llic limestone rock is ground to a fine powder wo have "ground limestone" or "ugriciiltural lime." It requires about two tons of (his latter sub- stance to be equal to one ton of quick lime, and the prices charged for them are in about the same proportion. Furthermore two tons of the former to one ton of the latter are about (ho right quantities to apply. The ground limestone rock is safe on any land in almost any quantity, and may be applied at any time of the' year. On heavy clay soils quick lime, slaked before applying, may give quicker results; but It should not be applied to light sandy soils. Few materials or fertilizers can have so many good things said about them as lime and none of thorn cost so little money. Try out a lillle yourself Uiis year. â€" Prof. U. llarcourt, O. A.
