Investigation and experience have
shown hat the acid condition is very
~unfavorable TO crop production. This
is particularly true Of clover and al
falfa. which fail to develop root nod
ules in acid soils, and in consequence
soon sicken and die. In the case OF
rich soils these crops may survive in
spite of acidity. but in such cases they
draw their nitrogen from the soil just
as other crops do instead of taking a
large part of 1t from the air. as they
are capable of doing under more IA
vorable conditions.
Maintenance OF a supply of nitrogen
in the soil for the grain crops is de-
pendent upon fixation Of atmospheric
nitrogen by legumes, SO the failure Of
legumes TO fix nitrogen is a serious
matter. 1t means soil exhaustion.
To correct this very u~nfavorable
condition the reaction of the soil must
be changed from acid to alkaline. and
lime is the basic or alkaline material
to use for that purpose. No other
treatment whatever is practicable. The
laws of chemistry are just as immuta-
BILE as the law OF gravity. Acid soils
contain an excess of acid compounds.
and can be rendered alkaline only by
adding basic or alkaline material
enough to combine with all the acid
compounds and have some left over.
IL makes little difference whether the
amount left over be large or small
within reasonable limits-hence IL
makes little difference whether the ap-
plication of lime be two tons TO the
acre or four, except that the smaller
the application the sooner II will have
20 be repeated.
Consistent success with clover OF
alfalfa is proof that the soil does not
need lime. Persistent failure OF these
crops is a good indication that il does

SUNLIGHT AS DISINrECTANT
Most Disease Germs Are Killed by Di-
rect Light as Repeated Tests
Have Demonstrated.
az H. PRESTON HosKINs..


Sunlight Is one Of the best and
cheapest ~disinfectants at our disposal.
and we should take advantage of this
fact at every opportunity. In the con
struction of barns or shelters of any
kind for animals, ample provision
should be made for the admission of
the maximum amount Of sunlight.
Southern exposure is desirable, that is,
having the majority of the windows
facing the south. The warmth thus
provided In cold weather is desirable,
and much of the excessive heat in
summer can be avoided by providing
suitable curtains or screens Most dis
ease germs are easily killed by direct
sunlight, as has been repeatedly shown
by experiments.
