Is it expensive to put lime on land ?
Ernest Segerson, Reagan, says it will
take two days to put a ton of fertil.
izer on ten acres. This of course is
done every year. An application Of
ground limestone will last for ten
years or longer. Two tons can be ap.
piled on one acre in two days on a
large number of Henderson county
farms. Two days to distribute a ton
of fertilizer and one day to haul it out
for ten years on ten acres compares
favorably with the amount of labor
required to lime a field when we con-
slider the length of time which it will
last. We do not mean to say that we
shall use no fertilizer but in this way
we get out Of buying nitrogen.
