LIME TO DISINFECT STABLE
Decaying or Animal Matter
Preserve All Manure.

To disintect stable and destroy
decaying animal or vegetable matter
lime is excellent to use. But manure
should he preserved and not de-
stroyed. consequently lime should
never be used in or about a stable
where manure is made or kept. Its
use decomposes the manure and lib
crates the ammonia-the most vaiu-
able element of plant food
Acid phosphate, ground rock phos-
phate and land plaster are the three
best materials to use if other absorb
ents are scarce.
Air Stacked lime contains a mixture
of carbonate and hydrate of lime 1t
is not so caustic as fresh burned lime
