Lime.


Next to farm yard manure, lime is
in almost general use as manure, though
it is one of quite different character; !;
and when judicionsly applied, and the
land laid to pasture, or cultivated for
white and green crops alternately with
an adequate allowance of putreseent
manure, its effects are much more last
ing, and in many instances still more
beneficial, than those of farmyard ma
nure Fossil manures must produce
their effect, either by becoming con-
stituent part Of the plant, or by acting
upon its more essential food, so as to
render it more fit for the purposes OF
vegetable life 1t is, perhaps, in the
former of these ways, that wheat and
some other brought to perfection after
lime has been applied upon land that
would not bring them to maturity, by
the most liberal use of manure alone.
When lime, whether freshly burned
or Stacked, is mixed with any moist f.
brous vegetable matter, there is a
strong action between the lime and
the vegetable matter, and they form a
kind of compost together, of which a
part is usually soluble in water. By
this kind of operation, lime renders
matter which was before comparative
inert, nutritive; and as charcoal and
oxygen abound in all vegetable mat
ters it becomes at the same time con
verted into the carbonate of lime to
arabic land, there some general rules
commonly attended to by diligent far
mers, of which we shall present an ab-
stract.
LIST. As the effects of lime greatly
depend on it's intimate admixture with
the surface soil, it is essential to have
it in powdery state at the time it is
applied.
I'd. Lime having tendency to sink
in the soil, it should be plowed in with
q shallow furrow.
Sd. Lime may either be applied to
grass land, or to land in preparation
for green crops or summer fallow, with
almost equal advantage; but in gen.
eral, the latter mode of application is
to be preferred
4th. Lime ought not to be applied
second time to moorish soils, unless
mixed up as compost after which
the land should be Immediately laid
down to grass.
5th. Upon fresh land, the effect of
lime ismuch superior to that of manure.
The ground likewise, more especially
where it is of strong nature, is more
easily cultivated in some instances it
is said, the saving of labor would be
sufficient to induce farmer to lime his
land, where no greater benefit derived
from the application than the opportu-
nifty thereby gained of working it in a
more thorough manner.
The Lambertville press., 1860-02-01

BUcKwHEAT FOR HENS. Buck
wheat contains large portion of lime,
and is consequently one of the best
articles that can be fed hens. 1t is
also highly nutritious and stimulating,
and when fed to barn-yard fowls never
fails to prove highly promotiye of fe-
cundity. BY supplying fresh meat,
lime. oats, water chopped vegetables
and buckwheat to hens, they will lay
as well in the winter as in the spring
and summer season. They should be
kept in warm place, and have good
boxes in which to lay, with plenty of
good straw in which to make their
nests. Many who keep hens complain
that they do not pay expenses. This
results from carelessness and neglect
on the part of the owner, for it has
been aubundantly demonstrated that
the hen, when judiciously managed
and supplied with suitable food, is not
only capable of paying expenses, but
becoming source of considerable
profit.
