Q. How is it best applied . '' A. When put on the land by itself, it should be spread upon the surface, and be left exposed to the air till it falls to powder ; when mixed with com- post, which should be turned over repeatedly, it becomes, after lying some time, part of the mass.
Q. What quantity of lime, without mixture, •would you put to a rod of ground, — that is, the one- hundred-and-sixtieth part of an acre, — or a piece sixteen feet and a -half square ?
A. A quarter of a peck, — that is, ...at the rate of ten bushels to the acre ; and that only once in several years.
Q. You speak of applying lime by itself, and also of applying it mixed with compost ; which mode of application is preferable ?
A. It is better to mix it with the manures, for it would then be used, in smaller quantities indeed, but some at every regular dressing.
Q. You would, I find, apply lime in the same case as you would apply marl. Is there then any affinity between marl and lime ?
A. Yes ; marl is a carbonate of lime.
