Lime Sold Farmers for Alkaline Soil; Not Need Selling limestone for $20 a ton for use on land thnf dnMn't natxA It when even though it HIH th nrlne from the state plus freight would be out 4.u a ton, would seem to be about the ultimate in salesmanship. That is p.xnc.tW what hna hpan han. penlng In some sections of Oregon, reports irom county agents to Dr. W. L. Powers, head of the soils de partment at Oreeon State college. show. Latest nrtlvltlpa In thla have been in selling lime to farmers for Use on "slick" nr alkull innli In eastern Oregon, at $20 a ton. Dr. Powers advised county agents in the territory mat extended experiments show that alkali soils are relatively high in calcium and that lime used on them will have little or no effect Even if lime were needed it can be bought at the state plant at $4.50 a ton and shipped to the extreme bor der for $10.45 additional. The lime salesmen are reported to have warned farmers against using sulfur In correcting alkali spots, whereas the results on the oldest alkali experimental field in the northwest at Vale show that sulfur is the beat single treatment yet known, says Dr. Powers. Less sul fur is needed when it is used with organic manures. "Sulfur on alkali land reacts to form sulfuric acid which neutral izes the alkali, brings it into solu tion and mellows the soil so that it wii! launder out where deep drain age and copious irrigation are pro vided, explained Dr. Powers. "Un der present conditions this method is not recommended as a wholesale reclamation scheme on hard grease wood land, but it is entirely prac tical for elimination of alkali spots of moderate area frm occupied farms."
