GROUND LIMESTONE FOR SOIL 

 BETTERMENT. 



When commercial fertilizers were first 

 introduced, many farmers thoughtlessly 

 abandoned lime sowing, but the reaction 

 has already begun, and the wise land 

 owner whose soil has been under tillage 

 for many years, understands the value of 

 using both commercial fertilizer and lime. 

 The importance of lime for nearly all soils 

 is generally understood. 



Lime seems to be a necessary mineral 

 requisite in plant life. Scientists discover 

 that where there is a scarcity of lime, the 

 principal farm products fail to mature, and 

 where there is no lime at all, the soil is 

 barren. Careful tests disclose: 

 7 lbs. of lime per ton of Corn Fodder. 

 9 lbs. of lime per ton of Oats. 

 10 lbs. of • lime per ton of Timothy Hay. 

 40 lbs. of lime per ton of Clover. 



The fertilizing properties of lime seem 

 to extend in the direction of overcoming 

 acidity of soil; supplying mineral necessary 

 for plant growth; actively assisting in the 

 fixation of phosphorus, potash and nitro- 

 gen, rendering them more attainable and 

 convertible; all of which means better and 

 larger crops. 



In sacks containing 100 lbs., at $1.00 per 

 sack; in sacks containing 200 lbs., at $1.75 

 per sack- $12.00 per ton. Special prices on 

 large quantities.
