HE JAMES AUSTIN. Wikcsebte*; Says—The Lime I bought was used with. Turnips, and I have the best crop of Hybrid and f-wedes that I ever had, notwithstanding the vary bid goason for that crop. I sowed the t.iroe with a Dunoau drill, and had no difficulty in so doing. Where any unusual quantity of Lima was spilt. I notice thu roots are much larger than elsewhere. I am now using Lime in sowing wheat, hoping thereby to avoid tho ravages of the grub, which post is very destructive thia season, MS JOHN GEXGG. Longbeach, Says—The Lime I used last year was only for rape m peat land and for fruit trees. For tho latter the benefit was very great but for tho rape all the crop was so superb than t could not see any difference. But there is no doubt of its value on peat soils and on cold clays. I shall take a larger quantity than I have ordered, ME G. T. SMITH, NnasEETMtu, Ashburton, Sdys_l am pleased to inform you that I am quite aatiofled. from experiments 1 made in liming laud for fruit troes, that grand results follow, the fruit being larger, more abundant, and the colour perfect; also tho Lime keeps in chock tho slug and grab. For growing clover with irrigation the renult is simply marvellous, the clover being of a luxuriant gtaan. Iu ohort, 1 consider lime and irrigation go hand in hand with perfect-, husbandry. H'o finishes by saying he intends to seep on using Mount Somers Lime from time to time. ME F, WILDING (For the Sirx tp:-M Co.) Says—The Lime need at the Btyx Orchard had an excellent effect upon the soli. The trees bore ■well and wore unusually /reo from insect posts of •every kind. ME W. T. SMITH, Spr.uspEur.K, Saye—He limed stripe in two old grass paddocks which had been down to grara tan years, and iu both oases it renewed tho pasture on those strips, a vigorous growth of clover and ryegrass appearing in oaoh strip. ME ANDREW M'PAELANE, Sphingeueij, Haya—He Limed some grass land eighteen mouths ago this summer. He shut it up for buy, and in two cuttings took off four tone moro grass peeAcra off limed ground thin the non-hmed. ME JOHNSTON. Hakatbre, Says—Ha Limed a piece of a grass paddock which ihad boon down four years, shut it up for hay thia Bummer, and tho limed ground by weight gava nearly three times as much grass as the nonlimed. MR HOOD Says—He limed 60 sores, leaving If acre in the middle nnlimed, tho whole of the land being drilled in with turnips and superphosphate. By actual weight and meaouromeat tho limed land gate 21 tons to the acre, unlimsd II tons. Estimating turnips at 2s 6d per ton, ws have 52s 0d and 27a 3d an acre respectively. From these figure*, if yon require 1000 tons of turnips, it will require 100 sores of unlimed land, and it will cost £IOO for labour and phosphate; whereas, if you limo the laud, you get 1000 tons off 50 acres, and so save the labour and phosphate on 150 acres, thereby saving £SO, without taking into consideration that you have tho use of 60 acres for '.some other purpose, and that you have a large icredit balance in the limed soil. E.F.W. ME EANDALL. or Ashburton, Says—He Limed a strip in a paddock at on outlay / of £3 an acre eighteen months a«;o; tho remainder, ' of the paddock be treated with artificial manures to tho value of £3 an acre; planted the whole with. - potatoes ond tho whole crop’ was about equal. This' Hat spring ho put part of it in potatoes and parti iu mangels; the potatoes on avulioiaUy manured, land pave 8 tone I2cwt per acre, potatoes on Limed )and 10 tons 19cwt per' aura. The mangels with; artificial manures gave 33 tons to the acre, and on‘ Limed land 5S tons to the aoio. ME JOSEPH TUCKER B a jr g _Through Liming he has grown from 10 tot 12 tons of potatoes on land which would not grow] ’ potatoes before. ' ME J. T. BUENET, of Kaiapoi, gays—By liming laud to tho extent of 1J ton of Lima to tho acre ho has b.-on nbio to grow onethird moro potatoes of much eufodor quality ou'. Limed land. Bo has sent mo two samples to verify his ataiement, which aro on view at the New Zealand clothing Factory. I have many other testimonials of a like, character. ME EGBERT THBW, Febl Forest, Says— He mixed lime with suporphoiphaio to dry the phosphate. Ua fifty coraa no used lima and nhoHuhate in tho proportion of one to one. On thirty’acres he nsod two bankets full of lime to one hundredweight cf pboaphnto; on another thirty aoro» he used phosphate alone— iu each, case ’one and a quarter hundredweight was wse.l uaracru. Kn enys the lan-ent tuiuipa ,■ ppnar'd rO bo growing in the bind which had tho most limo, although ha was told not to mix rh,> lime aud phojbhate, as tho lime would liberate the ammonia from’the phosphate. Finishes by saying ho is so, pleased with the result that he intends using, S . i .. jralaS T. / ■■“*’ 5 • -v-Monat
