LIME FOR SOUR LAND.

Lime IS a valuable manure for some
one or more of its salts enter into the
composition of every vegetable. some
specimens of lime, however, contain
an excessively large proportion of
m~agnesia, which, absorbing carbOlic
acid too slowly. remains in a caustic
state, to the injury Of the roots of the
plants. and the diminution Of benefit
from the carbOnic acid evolved by the
accomplishing constituents of the soil.
Thus, peat and bog earth are beneti-
cial to the plants grown upon them
by their containing gallo acid and
other acids, which lime removes.
For sour. Doggy soil, ~sixty-five to
seventy bushels per acre is sufficient
quantity. An excellent manure Is
formed by mixing one bushel OF salt
with every two bushels OF lime.
Lime cannot be applied too fresh
from the kiln, for, il allowed to alb
sorb carbosic acid from the air, ii il
rapidly converted into chalk.
