From the Amerinnn Farmer.
GIsnn0 and Lime.

We hold that the use of Lime on all worn
out exhausted lands should form the basis OF
every Improvement looking 10 permanency, as
lime, from its own specific gravity, is always
sinking in to the soil ultimately finding its way
| beyond the plow.line-as much of it is wasted
and carried off by every rain, apd as another
portion is absorbed and carried off by each
crop that may be raised upon the land, VIC in
fer that all land which may have been long in
cultured viii be improved by being lined.
The application, however, of fresh Stacked
lime to lands just manured with guano, or any
other highly concentrated animal manures, IS
not to be recommended upon scientific princi-
Piles. We never the less believe that, if the
soil be clay, guanoed land may have lime ap-
piled to it without much detriment, provided
the lime be Stacked with solution of salt and
water. made strong enough to bear an egg up,
or if two bushels Of salt be broadcasted over
every acre OF It,
We think ten or twelve bushels of either
Baltimore or Thomaston lime per acre, would
be enough for first dressing upon any old
| land, and that more than 90 should not be aP-
piled at any one time.
We do not know the exact number OF BUSH
cls contained in a barrel of Thomaston lime.
So far as our information goes we have seen
il stated that a cask ofme from Ihomaston
contains 6 bushels; and if that be the capacity
of the barrel to which our correspondent al
Indies, we have no reason 10 believe that the
same quantity of the Baltimore Alum Stone
lime would not be just as effective as that
from Thomaston, or any where else, as the
alum line of this vicinage is among the pSrest
lime in the country, and contain as large
proportion ofthe calcareous principle as any
other, let that other come from what quarter
it may.
The guano should be plowed in, and the
lime used as top-dressing.
