Areas In State Where DOlo-
mite Is Abundant and
Easily Obtained
THE NEED is CLEARLY SHOWN
Crushed DoIomitc Limestone is
By-product of Extensive Mining
Operations in state-lnVestigations
Recently Made at Tennessee Station.

The need of lime for Tennessee SOILS
has been clearly shown in Tennessee
Station Bulletin 81. Although most
Of our soils are deficient in lime, the
valleys of Tennessee are underlald
with rich deposits of lime rock, and OF
dolomitic lime rock, the latter being a
limestone carrying large percentages
Of magnesium carbonate.
Crushed dolomitic limestone Is by
product of extensive mining opera
tfons in this state, and the magnetism
lime rock can, therefore, be obtained
very cheaply. Furthermore, there are
areas In this state where dolomite Is
abundant and easily obtained for home
crushing, while limestone is either
scare or absent. For these reasons
the question of relative values OF the
two limestones is one of great i'm
portance to the farmers of this state.
While the usual run of dolomitic
limestones analyze less in. total car
Donates than most of our limestones,
the greater efficiency of magnesium
carbonate in neutralizing soil "acid-
ity" gives our average dolomitic
limestone value corresponding to 100
pounds of limestone for each 92 pounds
of dolomitic limestone In other words,
our average dolomitic limestone is
more efficient in the extent of its neu-
tralization of soil "acidity" than equiv
alent amounts of our average lime
stone.
Certain investigations in this and
in foreign countries have shown that
a large excess of magnesia over lime,
in the soil is not beneficial to plant
growth, and for this reason the ques-
tion of the advisability of the use of
dolomite for some soils has been
debatable one, Recent investigations
at the Tennessee Station have shown,
however, that due to the fondness of
the magnesia of dolomite for solic-
ious substances in the soil, magnesium
unlike calcium carbonate,
can not remain in the soil, but is de-
composed. The substance formed
from magnesium carbonate soil treat
ment is much less soluble than the
dolomite and can not, there
fore, be so readily obtained by plants
have shown that when
dolomite is applied the calcium car
Donate. Is subjected to teaching in ap-
preciable amounts, whereas the mag
nesia after conversion to insoluble
forms is largely conserved 1t would
take long period Of the continued
use of dolomite in the amounts or
dinarily used to effect this accumula-
ton of magnesia in large excess over
lime, and this station, therefore, sees
no reason why dolomite should not be
for agricultural uses

The most striking example Of jury investigation

was in connection with the two trials of Abrs-

who was at last convicted Of graft and sentenced
10 the San Quentin prison. where he is now ser1-
ing a term Of fourteen years. The jury who served
during the first trial was drawn from panel Of
about 5000 talesmen, and the second jury was
selected from a panel Of something like 1900 men.

Abe Ruef had to examine the records Of about
$500 tslesmen in order TO find out who Of this
number might have some direct or indirect rels-

Of so many tslesmeu as in the Ruef Trials.
