i Business Notices. I I Mount Somers Lime* MR JAMES AUSTIN, . WINOHBBTEB, SAYS,— The Lime I bought waß used with Turnips, and I have the best orop of Hybrid and Swedeß that I ever bad, notwithstanding the very bad season for that orop. I sowed the Lime with a Duncan Drill, and had no difficulty m bo doing. Where any unusual quantity of Lime was spilt,. I notice the roots are much larger t'uuu elsewhere. I am now using Lime m sowing wheat, hoping thereby to avoid .the ravages of tho grub, which peat is very destructive this, season. MR. JOHN GRIGS, LONOBEAOH, : Says — The lime I used last year was only for rape m peat lind and for fruit trees. For the latter the benefit was very grent, but for Iho rapß all the crop was so superb that I could not see any difference. But there is no doubt of its value on peat soils and on cold clays, leh all take a larger quantity than I havo ordered. MR G. T. SMITH, Nurseryman, Ashburton, Saya — I am pleased to inform you that I am quite Bivtißfied from 'experiments I mude m liming land for fruit trees that grand resullß follow, the fruit being larger,' more abundant, and the colour perfect) also the lime keeps m cheok tho slug and grub. For growing olover with irrigation the result 's simply marvellous, the. clover being of a luxuriant green. In Bhort I consider[lime and irrigation go hand m hand with pcrfeot husbandry. He finishes by saying he intends to keep on using Mount Somers lime from time to lime. MR F. WILDING, (For the Styx Apple Co.)
