shortly sold the animal for 25 cents,
realizing the handsome profit Of

Lime as Il Soil ImpIovcr.


Lime is not fertilizer, but what
is termed an amendment" because
it brings abouts effects in the soil
that make the plant food already
present more available. These micro
organisms decompose organic matter
and liberate the plant food which is
stored therein SO that it can be used
by the growing crops. Soil water
charged with carbonic acid, which is
a product OF the breaking down Of
organic matter, is our strongest ma
tural solvent. In this way mineral
plant food will be dissolved more
readily and made available to the
plant. Under certain conditions
lime liberates some potash from its
inSoluble combinations and makes it
available.
Some very desirable physical cf-
fects are produced by lime. It foe
culatcs clay, causing it to become
more granular and conscqucntly
more open. On the other hand it
tends TO cement the sandy soils, maxi
ing them less porous.
There are three forms OF lime used
for agricultural purposcs--quick
lime, watcrslakcd lime and carbonate
OF lime. The two forms first men
SOIL or when long exposed to the
air, to the carbonate form. The
finely ground limestone rock is al
ready In the carbonate form. The
quick lime is most drastic in its eff
, fectS, the water-slakcd next and the
carbonate is mildest. Quick lime is
the same, whether it is made bv
burning oyster shells, limestone rock
or mari. When buying bear in mind
mat you want pounds OF actual lime,
therefore the analysis is Of prime i'm
p0rtance. We advise a liberal annli
cation OF the lime at long intervals
rather than the use of small
amount often. We would use at
least ton OF the finely ground lime
stone, or Of mari, or 1000 pounds or
more, per acre, Of the quick lime, or
or the so-callcd agricultural lines
which are usually mixtures OF the
quick, watcr-slakcd and air-slakcd
lime.
1t is preferable to apply the lime
as iohB before planting as is practi-
cable. Quick line is somewhat diff
ficult to handle on account OF its
drastic nature. II is best TO put this
FORM In small piles at intervals over
the field and cover with earth. It

Readers will remember that some
months ago the Tempe Canal com
pany installed at considerable ex-
pense a waste ditch running from
the canal to the river through the
Armstrong ranch. This ditch was
given good fall and the idea of its
construction was that by using il
occasionally, much of the sand that
each year accumulates in the main
canal. could be sluiced out by the ac-
ton OF the water The new ditch
was given its first real trial last week
and it was found that it worked with
entire satisfaction According to Su-
perintendent Crook the waste ditch
carried as much sand out of the main
canal as a thousand dollars would.

case, il is evident that the move was
an excellent one and that the ditch
in the future will save many times
its original cost.
