Gardening. 924 LIME LIME proving the texture of each. By the flocculation of the fine particles of the former, water drains off more readily, and the danger of serious washing is thus diminished. Soluble phosphates are less liable to be lost or changed intounassimilable forms in soils containing Lime. Large quantities of Lime should not be employed upon sandy soils in a single application. The repeated use of highly magnesian Lime is fraught with danger, though, applied occasionally in the place of ordinary Lime, it may prove beneficial. The use of Lime, whether in wood ashes or from other sources, increases the tendency to alkalinity of the soil, and hence makes it more favorable to the development of potato scab, provided the fungus which causes the disease is already in the soil, or is introduced into it upon the "seed" tubers. The disease which de- velops upon turnips and certain other plants, known as "club foot" or "club root, " is lessened to a marked degree by the use of Lime upon the soil. Lime is usually applied to land at rates ranging from half a ton to two and one-half tons per acre, and at inter- vals of from four to six years. It should be thoroughly worked into the surface soil after plowing. Upon sandy soils it is applied with the greatest safety after com- posting with organic matter. The value of Lime in Y)reparing composts has long been known. Mixed in iaj^ers with loam, weeds, muck, coarse stable manure and other vegetable or animal mat- ter, it forms in a few months, if kept moist, an excellent material for the use of gardeners. If worked over a few times at intervals, the operation is materially hastened. The introduction of a little common sa
