LIME As A FKRTILIZKR.-Jus now,
there seems to be new awakening
among our farmers in regard TO the
use of lime as a fertilizer And many
of them we have no doubt, in this en-
thusiasm over the glowing accoun's
OF the encouraging results from its ap-
plication. will be inclined To run into
excuses and make mistakes which
thew will have TO deplore. The truth
derivable thus far from intelligent OBJ
servation and experience seems TO be,
that while lime is valuable as fer
tiliZer on certain kinds of soil II Is OF
no perceivable value for others of a
different texture. Sometimes 1t de-
ponds upon the kind of lime applied,
whether stone or oyster shell, and at
what period after shaking. Sometimes
a soil may already contain enough
! lime for all the vegetation, and hence
an excess would be of no benefit and
only time and money lost in applying
One thing is certain and cannot ne
converted-that lime is not of itself a
fertilizer as is animal manure or bone
meal. or the like. 1t must be consid-
cred as merely a disintegrator III its
effects and applied accordingly. 10
apply it to starved and worn-out land,
which has been depleted OF all its
humus or vegetable matter by success
i've groupings gives, as rule, no prof
liable result, although Mr.. Farquhar
saws the best effects he has even seen
from it have been from such land. IL
the soil is full of vegetable matter
lime will hasten its decomposition and
make it ready to be absorbed for veg
etable life. 1t is a solvent of some
mineral substances which would
otherwise continue dormant and use
less for plant food, as, for instance,
the silicate of potash is made to give
up its potash and so contribute to the
fertility Of the earth around it. As
more of an agent than for the proper
and necessary assimilation of plant
food than as direct fertilizer lime
must be considered And we would
advise all new enthusiasts to go eau
tiously into its employment as fer
tilizer. Make few careful expert
ments under different and varying con
di.ious a learn practi ally what can
b. done advaulageou>ly. Then, il
