LIME IMPROVES
SOIL CONDITIONS
On Some Land 1t Is Necessary as
Actual Plant Food for Al
faIfa and Clover.
cBy R, G. wEArHERsroNE3

When we apply lime to our soil we
look to Its effect upon the soil rather
than to its direct influence upon the
plants. While many farms contain
sufficient deposits Of lime. 1t is also
true that many soils are deficient In
this element.
Lime has various functions. 1t cor
rects soil acidity; thus stimulating the
action of the bacteria that assist In
, making plant food available and
gather nitrogen from the atmosphere.
It changes dormant plant food into
active plant food, by carbonating the
IN water and makes it a more pow
te(ful solvent
1t improves the physical condition
OF the soil by making a heavy soil
more friable and loose soil more
compact. On some soils 1t is needed
as an actual plant food. for such crops
as alfalfa and clover.
There are various kinds of lime
used for agricultural purposes and
each kind has certain advantages but
my experience has led me TO believe
that it is much safer to use the car
donate, or ground limestone. because
N does not have tendency to destroy
the humus In the soil. especially II
large quantities are used at one time.
On heavy soils that are inclined to
be(.et the caustic lime win have more
beneficial effects and liberate more
plant food. Such land requires a
more powerful agent to tear apart and
decompose the soil particles and i'm
prove its physical conditions For
the soil the carbonate. or
ground limestone. is equally valuable.
Lime should be applied early In the
} spring, when 1t has not been applied
the previous fall. and should be ap-
piled a number of days before ferti-
lizer and be thoroughly incorporated
with the soil.
II fertilizer containing nitrogen is
applied where 1t will come In contact
with the caustic lime there will be a
waste of ammonia and a consequent
loss of fertility.
The great question is how much
sha1 we use. believe that one ton
of caustic lime Is an adequate amount
to supply at one time II the ground
limestone Is applied. We may safely
double the amount. A moderate ap-
plication every four or six years is
rnore desirable than heavier appli-
cation less frequently.

PROPER CARE OF
SWEET POTATOES
Unlike Other Vegetables, Tubers
Should Be Stored in a Warm
and Dry Place.
tBy L. NJ. BENNINGTON

Sweet potatoes need to be handled
carefully II they are to be kept
through the winter and unlike most
other vegetables. sweet potatoes should
be kept in warm. dry place.
In the first place swee. potatoes
must be dug at the right time. They
should be dug before the hard frosts
have killed the tops, for this injuries
the quality of the tubers somewhat.
After digging. the potatoes must be
handled as carefully as though they
we're eggs. Irish potatoes can be shov-
eled around rather carelessly, and oft
en- a brufse in one OF the potatoes, or
even decayed spot, will not Affect
the other part which is left in sound
condition.
But not SO with the sweet potato,
for bruise at one end will affect the
quality ~ the sound part at the other
end and will render 1t unfit for use.
This fact is not generally understood
by many growers who handle sweet
potatoes as carelessly as they do Irish
potatoes.
This fact Is responsible for many OF
the potatoes OF poor quality which are
served during the winter
After being handled, the sweet DO
tatoes should be stored in a warm,
dry place. A temperature of 60 to 70
degrees is about right for the proper
keeping of sweet potatoes.
Some persons have stored them In
the sand. or dust from the country
road. to help preserve an even tenn
perature.
II the potatoes are stored In sand or
dust. care must be taken that the sand
is perfectly dry.
Handled carefully, sweet potatoes
can be kept for some months and will
be found Of good quality late in the
winter.

Stopping the Wind.

In the village church during the
morning service the organist was an
noyed because the organ-blower kept
working the lever noisily after he had
finished playing. A famous preacher
had come down from London to
preach. The organist scribbIed a
note to the blower. and sent it round
by choir boy who, misunderstand
ing his instructions. put 1t into the
hands of the preacher. The note was
as follows: Perhaps you will kindly
stop when ! tell you to. The people
have come here to hear my music, not
your noise.'
