How Lime Serves the Farmer.

From an Irish Agriculturall Paper.
The uses of lime are in part me-
chanical and part chemical. Upon
deep alluvial and clay soil it increases
the crop of potatoes and renders
them less waxy. Sprinkled over po-
tatoes in a store heap, when both the
potatoes and the lime are in dry
state, it preserves them, and when
riddled over the cut sets at planting
time it wonderfully increases their
vitality. Lime eradicates the finger
and toe disease in turnips, and helps
to give greater firmness TO the bulbs.
1t gives when applied to meadow
land a larger product by producing
more nutritious grasses, also helping
to extirminate the seeds Of MOSES
and aquatic plants. Upon arabic
land 1t destroys weeds of various
kinds. 1t rapidly decomposes vege-
table matter, producing large
amount Of food for plants in the form
of carbonized elements. 1t destroys
and neutraliZes the acids in the soil,
hence its adaptability to some lands.
1t acts powerfully upon some of the
organic parts of the soil, especially
upon sulphatc Of magnesia and alum
ina. 1t proves fatal to worms and
slugs and the larvae Of insects,
though favorable to the growth of
shell-bearers. Stacked lime added to
vegetable matter causes it to give of
its nitrogen in the form Of ammonia.
Upon soils in which ammonia is com
bined with acids it sets free the am
monia, which is seized upon by the
growing plants. It's soluhility in wa
ter causes it to sink into and anchor
ate the subsoil. When the soil con-
tains fragments Of granite or trap
rock, lime hastens their decomposition
and liberates the soil produces saline
compounds such as potash and soda,
which Immediately enter into plant
growth. Strewed over plants. it de-
strOys or renders uncomfortable the
location of numerous species of in
sects which pray on the surface-nO-
tably the turnip fly. Worked in with
grass seeds, the beneficial effect Of
lime, chalk, mari and shell sand-in-
to the composition of all of which
lime largely enters-has been known
to produce visible effects for upward
OF thirty years. Applied to manure,
lime serves to destroy the seeds of
various weeds, the larvae of insects,
and otherwise exercises a very beau
tiful effect in the liberation Of organ
ic, constituents, and then assists in
their combination with others and
more useful forms of plant food.

MANY of those who SOW and plant
depend upon the seedsmen for their
annual supply of seeds, while others
save those of their own growing from
year to year. We are glad to believe
that those who buy of responsible
dealers are uniformly treated with
fairness and justice, and secure good
fresh seed, true to name, and sure to
grow with proper treatment. This is
not always the ease with those who
save their own seed, but should be.
A little extra pains-taking in gather
ing, and care in keeping seeds will
accomplish wonders in the way of
improvement in all that farmers
grow. We have recently alluded to
this matter, but it is jnst now so
timely, and always so important, that
our readers will not, we trust, object
to our mentioning it again. When
saving seed at oil, that should be
saved which is earliest and best, and
by pursuing this course from year to
year, whether it be of beans or peas,
corn or potatoes, we may be able in
time to produce something that will
be so much better and earlier than
that with which we started as to am
ply repay us for our time and trouble.

where their footing is hard during
the first eighteen months of their
age. Whether in stable or yard dur

or over hundred acres of potatoes. The
banana, then, is the bread of millions who
could not we'll subsist without it. In Bra
zil it is the principal food Of the laborinQ
classes, while it is no less priced in the
Island Of Cuba. Indeed, in the latter coun-
try the, sugar planters grow orchards Of it
expressly for the consumption OF their
slaves. Every day each hand receives his

pour gently on this en- inch of water, more
or less. When some paste is wanted, de-
cont the water, take out the quantity need

Paste may be kept in this way for months,

The Vegetable Garden.
From the Chicago Times.

Almost for the first time since the coun-
try was settled, fresh garden vegetables
have been brought to eastern cities from
foreign countries during the past year. The
importation of them still continues. On.
ions, tomatoes and ear]y potatoes have long
been brought from the Bermuda ISLANDS,
and canned beans, peas, caulidower and
mushrooms from France and Italy. But at
present we are importing potatoes. celery,
beets, carrots, turnips, onions and cabbage
from Germany, Euolard and Ireland. The
country at large is poorly supplied with
vegetables. In most of the southern states
it is difficult to raise and keep garden veg
etables for use late in the season. A SINH
lar difficulty is experienced in portions Of
the northern states that are subject
to severe and protracted draught. As q
rule, the people in cities consume larger
quantity and greater variety of vegetables
than people living on farms. A farmer
table will contain but one or two kinds OF
garden products, while five OF six varieties
will b. found on the bill of fare of city
hotel or restaurant. Less attention ia paid
to the production Of vegetables by western
than eastern farmers. Generally, the lar.
ger the farm the smaller md poorer is the
vegetable garden, Most farmers content
themselves With tho moro common soste Of
