VEGETABLES
NEED LIME

Many farmers advocate the use of
lime for their soils, while others say
that lime has not benefited their
crops. Lime costs money and re-
qures considerable work in applica-
ton, therefore, the farmer should not
use lime unless he is sure to get good
returns for his investment.
1t is a well-established fact that
the best yields of many of the vege-
tables cannot be obtained unless the
soil is sweet, or alkaline. Such crops
as beets, celery, onions, lettuce. spin
ach, peppers, cantaloupes, cabbage.
and others. The question that is in
doubt among vegetable growers is
whether their soil is actually sour.
and If so, how much lime it requires
to neutralize the acidity. The farm
demonstration of Cumberland County.
N. j., accompanied by the extension
specialist in market gardening of the
New Jersey State Agricultural Col
lege, recently took samples of soil
from six different fields on farm at
Cedarville, n. j. Tests for the limo
requirement of these soils gave the
following results: Field L required 1
ton of burned lime per acre, or it's
equivalent, to neutralize the acidity.
Field 2 showed only trace of acidity
and would not need lime unless a
crop like alfalfa were to be planted.
Field 3 needed 500 pounds per acre,
field none, and fields and 6, each
1000 pounds. The farmer himself
had no idea of the condition of the
soil. If he had applied lime to the
fields already sweet, no benefits would
have been obtained, and injury may
have resulted. This illustration en-
phas.zes the need of knowing the de-
gree of acidity of the soil before ap-
plying lime.
