lime and AaIl Bhnsnhnfe

Much having been said lately about
the tests made at the Rhode Island
Experiment Station in the use of lime
upon certain soils and for various
crops. we desire To call attention 10
the possible danger Of using lime with
an acid phosphate. The object in
treating bone and phosphate rock with
sulphuric acid is to render the phoS-
phOTic acid soluble in water so that II
may become more readily available
for plant food. 1t does this by remov-
ing from ii part of the lime, chang.
ing IL 10 Il sulphate of lime. If now
more carbonate of lime is added II
viii be taken up 10y the dissolved phos-
phate, and IL reverts again to the in
soluble form. Lime may be used with
bone meal, because that already has
its phoSphoric acid combined with as
much lime as ii can take up, and il
really becomes available as it is acted
upon by the acid i'm the soil. But
where one uses enough of bone meal
there is little need TO use lime I'm any
other form. Boston Cultivator.

II is not very hard matter for any
farmer 10 create private market for

Mourning is certainly much more
fanclful than was formerly consid
cred conventional, and 1t Is really In n
transition stage, for both French and
English designs are followed In com
bnation. The French mourning is
more elabOrate-that is. the trimmings
are not nearly SO plain and severe. but
quite the same amount of crepe IL
used. and French women wear crepe
for longer time than do the Eng
lsh. The favoritc English style OF
bonnet is the Mary Stuart shape, with
folds of crepe around the face, or
n shlrred band and then n long veil
pinned on the hat and thrown back
from the face. A short veil trimmed
with crepe, but made OF net, is worn
over the face. The French bonnet is

bows and loops and rosettes Of crepe,
