given soft wafer have given hard water
very soon after the land around them
had been dressed with lime The small
quantity that could be drilled along

Twenty bushels per acre every four years

Immediately before the wheat is sown

Forty cents buShcl is too great a cost
for profit. Lime ought not to cost more
than fifteen cents a bushel anywhere
within twenty miles of a bed of lime
stone. Gypsum, much more costly than
lime, ought to be procured ground ready
for use at forty cents n bushel. Rather
than pay forty cents bushel for lime,
gypsum (which is sulphate of limc)
would be more profitable at fifty cents,
the highest price we have known even
for imported Nova Scotia gypsum. AS
it is twice as soluble in water as lime,
and supplies sulphuric acid as well as
lime to the soil, it is used in much smaller
quantities, One hundred pounds, or one

under of green crops is not likely to sour
the soil, unless stagnant water exists in
it. The presence of such water in the
soil favOrs the production of acids, but
where the soil is free from it there is al
ways sufficient alkaline matter to take
up the acids which may be formed dur
ing the decomposition of growing grass,
clover, or buckwheat, which may be
plowed under. Barnyard manure is the
