INSPECTION OF AGRICULTURAL LIME 

 PRODUCTS 



By H. D. Haskins, L. S. Walker and G. B. Dalrymple 



Recent simplified methods for roughly estimating soil acidity 

 have done much to stimulate interest in the use of lime products 

 for soil improvement. The data contained in this report should 

 be of particular value in the selection of agricultural limes. The 

 crop-producing value of such products depends upon their com- 

 position; while their actual cost depends upon the percentage 

 of effective oxides of lime and magnesium which they carry.
