The wrath Of the two expresses was

lime Supplements Fertilizers

Lime does not take the place of ferti.
iizers or manures, but supplements
them, according to Bulletin AGO, of the
Geneva Experiment Station, New
York. When the use of lime in any
form is continued alone, and no ade
quate provision 10 made for maintain
ing the supply of fertilizers and
organic matter, crops cannot be kept
up and the returns in the use of lime
become less and may finally drop
below that of land unlimed, according
to this bulletin and also the results
found by the Ohio and other expert
ment stations.
