SOUR SOIL AND THE WHEAT CROP

WiUi the exoeDtioo of barley, wheat suffers more from sour lands than any of oar common cereals. It is especially imporant to test all land to be seeded to wheat and appiv lime if sour, because you not ODiv get a lazier yield of irrain but timothy and clover are usually seeded m wheat, and one or both may fail on sour soils.'

The Ohio exoerimenU show that lime does not take tbe place of fertilizer or manure, but it supplements them. The experiments further show very etrikinfflv that when lime and fertilizers are used on the same land the yield of crops is greater than the sum of the yields from the two used seperatdv. However, if lime is used akHie and no iwoyision is made for maintaining the supply of or-Kanic matter and plant-food in the soil, the er< ) yields cannot be maintained, and the yields from the use of lime in such a system fall off rapidly and may finally drop below that of unlimited land. Manures, both green and stock manure, and fertilu^s shouki be used with linoe. l ime is best ^K>Ued with a Ume and fertilizer distributer just after the fauMl is pk>wed.

In a recmt bulletin of the Agricultural Deoartment, Washing­ton, as article on the iMreparation of the soil for alfalfa recommends that linoe shouki be ai^Ued after idowing. and preferably three or four wedcs before seeding, in order that it may bectaae thixMgh more frequent harrowings thoroughly incorporated with the soil It is often practical, especial^ whra using ground limestone, to apply the lime to the crop iHreeeding, in order that there mav be time for it to become thoroughly availabe for the alfalfa.
