An article on the vnluo of llino car.
bonnto, nubllnliod In this paper on
Thursday, has elicited n numbor of
questions ns to how to use It on var
ious soIIb, ns to quantity per ncrc,
nnd when to apply it.
Tho quantity of ground llmostono
to into per aero must bo determined
by the naturo nnd condition of tho
noil. If your land Is comparatively
level nnd of n clay formation, con
taining consldernblo vegetable mat
ter in tho form of humus or other
wise, it Is llkc-ly to contain much
itcld. If bottom land, It will rcqulro
n ton nnd a half to two Ions per aero.
If upland, It -will require a ton to
onn and it hnlf tons per acre. If the
latter bo of n Hhot-clny formation,
with rolling or undulating surface, It
should have at least a ton to the
ncro.
A simple test of tho aridity of tho
soil may bo mado with lltnum paper.
Take soil from various parts of tho
tract It is desired to lest, moisten It
If too dry, thoroughly nil) It togeth
crt tako a small portion of It nnd
bury tho pnper in It for fifteen or
twenty minutes. llomovo the paper
nnd let it dry. If tho soil bo add,
It will turn tho paper pink or red.
The poll used in such n test Nhould
bo taken at u depth of six or eight
IllCllCfl.
Miucstono SncctitiH (lio Soil
Llmostono flour applied to tho soil
supplies all tho necessary lime to
tho various plants. It sweetens tho
noil nnd unlocks tho nlllcntcH, liber
ating potash and other valuablo ma
terials Just as efficiently as burnt or
caustic lime does, without producing
nny injurious offocts on tho humus or
nitrogenous matter of tho soil, llko
burnt llmo Is Hiiro to do.
Tho offlraoy and added vnluo of
ground limestone ns n fertilizer and
ameliorator of tho soil depends on
how flno the ntono Is ground. It
ought to bo ground Into n flour that
will pass through a, 100-mosh selvo
which means ton thousand perfora
tions to each square Inch of thu selvo.
In nnttiro, llmostono soil Is mado
from tlin oxidation of llmestono by
tho action of tho solvont power of
water in connection with gnBos of tho
nlr nnd tho acid of tho dirt. This
process Is slow on account of tho
limited surfaco of tho stono exposed
to such agencies. Honce, tho finer
tho stono Ih ground tho grcator will
bo tho surface subjected to the pro
cess, and tho greater, also, will bo
tho supply of plant food nnd tho ven
tilation of the soil.
When llmostono flour Is oiiro In
corporated with tho not!, It Is not sub
Joct to woBto llko burnt or caustic
llmo. Kinked lime will quickly seek
water becnuso It has become calcium
oxldo, tho carbonic acid having been
burned nut of It. Ground llmestono
tins Its calcium wants supplied, na
turo hnvlng given It tbo proper bal
anco as plant food,
For flair) moil nnd Stockmen
A limestone country Is always n
good stock countrx, stock grazing on
thu growth of such u m being al
wa) healthful and In good condition.
This fact suggests to dairymen and
ntorknien generally that nil applica
tion of from ouo to two tnim per acte
of ground llmesfone on their pastures
and meadow lauds would prove to bo
a very profitable Investment. It will
Improve tho milk product. Uu land
containing a sufficient eontettt of
lime, tho milk product will contain
six graluo of lime to each pint of
m ilk The Imneflt of sueh supply of
Mine to the liumnii system nnd to
growing stock mid poultry Is soir
cMdent. Mine Is the nnturnl and preferred
haxo In the imo of all furtlllxyri.
Without the preooure of lime In the
soil, the iipplltMtlon of iiionI fortllU
ern will prove dffl.'l.uit In giving tbo
refills desired. Without ilm ,ret-

A crystal glass humidor jar containing one pound of
Tuxedo, the mildest, most fragrant tobacco. At
every store where tobacco products are sold.
Last Christmas more Jars of Tuxedo were given to men through
out the United States than any other single' trade-marked article!
Because Americans are learning to make suitable gifts at Christ
mas time and learning that Tuxedo is the best gift of all for a man.
Tuxedo is the mildest nlr;ic?im
pipe tobacco in the world made
absolutely non-biting and delightfully
mellow by the original "Tuxedo
Process" that has never been success
fully imitated.
Last Christmns rlv
demand forTuxedo humi
dor jars was so great that
the supply of many deal
ers was exhausted, and
thousands of people were
disappointed. The safe
plan is to place your order
with your dealer now. He
will be glad to set your
jar aside for you until
Christmas.
, This Tuxtdo Christmas ftimider
Jar is beautifully decorated with hotly,
ribbon and Christmas card, and packed
