LIME NEEDED
Spring and Summer Use.

Many Shiawassee County farm.
need lime in order to secure the most
satisfactory crop yield. Too often il
is thought that lime benefits only
legumes and that non-legumes derive
but little benefit from its use. Some
of the field crops that are known to
respond to lime are:
Eegumes-Alfalfa, June clover
mammoth clover, alsyke clover, sweet
clover, COW peas, soy beans, beans,
vetch.
Non-Legumes-Corn, oats, wheat
barley, rye, buckwheat, timothy
beets and root crops, potatoes, prac-
tically all garden crops.
Functions of Lime.
The benefits derived from applica-
tion Of lime are the results of
changes induced in the soil that make
conditions more suitable for plant
growth. Inasmuch as several effects
of lining may be operative at the
same time it is indeed complex, there
fore variable results from its use are
to be expected.
While lime is not a fertilizer it
produces conditions in the soil which
are beneficial to plant growth and
also adds calcium which most plants
need and which is continually leach
ing from the soil and is being used
up by vegetable growth.
Lining in the Spring and during
the Summer may be found practical
in the following ways. Lining for
corn to be seeded or cover cropped
later. On land which has not been
lined recently or is known to be sour
which is to be planted to soy beans,
cow peas or peas for canning pur-
poses. On fields being sown to oats
or barley where clover, alfalfa or
sweet clover is being seeded at the
same time.
Beneficial results will also be OBJ
tanned from moderate applications of
lime on clover or alfalfa fields, al
ready established, which are known
to be suffering from a sour or acid
condition of the soil. This applica-
tion may be made early in the Spring
before much growth has taken place
or after the first cutting. The lime
should be narrowed into the soil. This
narrowing will also remove much of
the June grass where it is crowding
out the clover and alfalfa and to-
SCIICI WlIlI Vic llLic Will give Cuc dl-
falfa or clover a new lease of life.
Another important place to use
lime is at the time of preparing the
land for Summer seeding of alfalfa
and preceding the sowing of Winter
grains. Fine ground limestone may
be used in conjunction with acid
phosphate to good advantage or may
be used at the same time as barnyard
manures where both are well incor-
porated with the soil.
While good returns have been had
from most Shiawassee County farms
the productivity of these soils may be
increased and more money may be
made from the same land by the pro-
per use of lime, barnyard manures,
correct fertilizers together with well
planned rotations on well drained
soils. We cannot be content with
what we have had but must ever keep
our soils and methods if
our farms continue to furnish a good
living and reasonable profits.
The Owosso times., 1921-05-06
THE HOME GARDEN

Little do we realize the value of a
well kept, well planned vegetable
garden, on the farm. Vegetables are
very healthful and are needed in our
diet. A half acre, well cared for will
produce sufficient vegetables for the
average families use during the sum-
mer and for storing and canning for
winters use. A half acre garden
properly cared for will produce a
greater return per acre than can be
realized from an equal area devoted
to general farm crops.
A liberal supply of vegetables,
properly prepared and well served,
will be found not only nutritious and
healthful but economical.
Entire meals may be prepared from
such a garden many times, which will
prove to be delightful and whole
some.
Now is the time to make your plans
for such a garden. Don't forget to
include some Progressive Everbear-
ing Strawberry plants in your plant
ings. Get the children interested in
this project. Allow them to plant and
care for portion Of the garden. They
will enjoy it, and so will you.

FERTILIZER

Through the loyalty of the local
Associations and cooperation from
the managers, the state farm bureau
has accomplished wonders in the fer
tilizer economics this Spring. We
have saved the Michigan farmers
thousands of dollars, and in justice
to the Company who put us in posi-
ton to do this, every local should
stick to the State Farm Bureau.
1t is foregone conclusion, that no
matter what prices are made through
the Bureau, competitive interests will
make a lower price. We do, how
ever, except large number of our
members realize this and will be will
ing to pay small additional cost
through their Local, rather than
assist in tearing down their own or
ganization by purchasing their fer
tilizer through concerns who have
only this end in view.
Anaconda Treble Superphosphate.
(Acid Phosphate, as " available

The Michigan State Farm Bureau
has made Anaconda Treble Super
phosphate, the highest grade of acid
phosphate manufactured, available to
Michigan farmers in less than carlots.

the price now $61.43 per ton, or on
a basis of $21.50 per ton for 1919

The Owosso times., 1921-05-06
The following articles are from the
Shiswsssee County Farm Bureau News;
FARM BUREAU SELLS
FREICHTLESS FERTILIZER

Because of what farmers consider
almost prohibitive freight rates, but
$4,000 tons of acid phosphate fertil-
izer of the 125,00O tons said by the
u. S. Department of Agriculture to be
the normal spring requirement of
Michigan, have been applied to the
farms Of this state, according to the
state farm bureau traffic department.
The department Of agriculture states
further that the application of acid
phosphate is decidedly beneficial and
results in increased yields. However,
freight rates of 81 to SO a. ton on
acid phosphate from Tennessee, the
nearest source of supply, has almost
stopped shipments into Michigan.
The state farm bureau, recognized
the situation, has been assisting it's
members to solve the problem for
some time past. The farm bureau
method included the taking over for
Michigan the states allotment of An
aconda Treble Superphosphate-45h "
per cent available phosphoric acid as
against the 16 per cent available
phosphoric acid carried by ordinary
phosphate-and disposing of it
through its purchasing department
at lower prices than farmers would
have to pay for it's equivalent in 1870
acid phosphate. Freight rates on
carlots are prepaid and half the rate
on less than car lots is prepaid,
through an arrangement with the
manufacturer of the phosphate, says
the farm bureau.
The farm bureau points out further
that with the treble superphosphate
about three times as strong as the
ordinary phosphate, the farmer saves
two-thirds of the ordinary haulage
and labor charges.
Anaconda Treble Superphosphate
is correct from a mechanical stand
point. 1t is properly ground, and
goes through the drill smoothly and
uniformly. 1t is practically odorless.
acid, is therefore less destructive to
bags, and has less tendency to cake
in storage than ordinary acid phOs-
phate.
Anaconda Treble Superphosphate
is sold upon a basis of quality. The
farmer pays for the number of avail
able units of phosphoric acid rather
than for useless inert material con-
tained in low-grade fertilizers which
he has bought by weight in the past.
Anaconda Treble Superphosphate
being used at fewer pounds per acre,
therefore costs the farmer less money
per acre and is the most economical
form in which he can buy available
phosphoric acid today.

STOCK TONIC EXPOSED
Professor A. J. Patten of this Exper.
iment Station gives analysis
of "Sal-Tonik."

Attention has recently been call
ed, through the public press, to a
product that has been distributed in
the State under the name of "Sal-
Tonik." This is claimed to be stock
tonic, conditioner and worm de-
stroyer. 1t is put up in blocks of
so pounds each, to retail at $4.25
per block.
The manufacturers, state that "Sal-
Tonik" contains the following: Bicar-
Donate Of Soda; Tobacco; Glaubers
Salts; EPSON Salts; Calcium Carbon
ate; Sulphate of Iron; Sulphur; Ok
ide of Iron; American Worm Seed !;
Levant Worm Seed; Capsicum, Sodi-
um Chloride.
Our analysis of "Sal-Tonik" (giv-
en- below shows it to be, essentially,
salt block colored by red ovide of
iron to which has been added small
quantities of several common medi-
cinal chemicals.
Sodium Chloride Common
Salt 700
Sodium Sulphate (Glaubers
Salt) 1.S9 20
Magnesium sulphate (Ep-
som Salts) -------- 1900
Sodium Bicarbonate ------- O.3096
Calcium Carbonate O.84@o
Organic matter ------ 0.349o
Acid Insoluble matter 1.19@o
We have not been able to identi-
fly tobacco, capsicum, or the worm
seeds, but since these materials
would be represented by the organic
matter their combined amount can
not exceed 0.34qo. The amount of
the active principle of levant worm
seed for which the manufacturers
claim costs about $500 per pound is
matter Of the imagination rather
than chemical estimation.
That this "Sal-Tonik" is a rank
fraud is evident, but, unfortunately,
there is no State law by which its
sale may be prohibited. The aid of
the Federal Food and Drug Inspec-
tion has also been solicited, but ap-
parently it cannot be reached under
the u. S. Pure Food and Drug Act
of 1910. Publicity, therefore, is the
only weapon with which to combat
such products.
Although "Sal-Tonik" is at the
front just now, there are many other
so-called tonics and conditioners on
the market that are equally as
fraudulent.
In this same category we would
