Soil Offers Easy
Test for Acidity
Some tranlen soils are nnturntlv
alkaline due to many causes but
traced In part to the presence of
itmeidoiie deposits, lack of enough
ruin to wash away the alkali Malts
and continued irrigation with "hard
ftiiter."
A slight tendency hi this direc
tion Is not to be considered u dis
advantage In Hkj warden soil, ex
(opium to plants that definitely
miulre the opposite or an acid
soil condition.
Novice gardeners ure Inclined to
worry a great deal about the soil
roiiltements of their plants. It so
happens that most all plants will
thrive hi soils that may lie slightly

i favorable rowing cooditlons ure
maintained.
To determine whether a oll f
alkaline or acid, tests may ho made
with home jtarden soil test kits, or
witli litmus paer.
Lime Aids Old. Soil
Many gardener add lime to the
foil annually as a matter of rou
tine, others would never think of
prepariim' a lawn without addini,'
t-oni lime to "break-up" the soil.
A hit of organic lime applied every
three years will prove beneficial
to old. exhausted soil. The caus
tic forms ot lime that are sprinkled
over the ground by ' old-timers to
id the garden of slugs and snails,
may cause (rouble by over-stiinu-iaHim
bacterial activity to the
P'dnt of burning-up the? valuable
humus content or the soil.
Fortunately, soil chemists have
perfected formulae containing cal

minerals and bacferia cultures
which supplant lime In hieaktug

known as "soil amendments" or

ASK THIS QUESTION
WHEN YOU BUY A TRACTOR'
Q How art working parts protocted?
A All vital parts of the "Cotorplllar" Diesol Tractor
art carefully protected by specially designed seals and
filters. The final drive for example is protected by the
copper bellows seal that wards off dust and mud and
keeps lubricant around moving parts. Special filters keep
fuel oil and air clean.
