time during the year when it is convenient to work it into the soil. For immediate re- sponse and maximum yields, lime should be thoroughly mixed. with the soll before the crop is seeded The most. ef- ficient practice would be to plough the field, apply lime and work in, preferably in the fall in order te permit time “forthe lime to neutralize the soil acidity”

Fall liming is also favored: by such factors ag: (1) inab-- ility te use eavy equipment-on wet fields in the spring and- (2) the immediate availability of lime from dealer. in the fall versus the spring.

BULK SPREADING

In recent years a number. of bulk limestone. spreaders have been doing custom work in the province. The owners of the ones that we are aware of are as follows:

J. Smith, Millview; G. Law- ton, Pownal; S. Nicholson, Bel- fast: D. Wood; Kensington: B. Wood. Brudenell; W. Nunn, Oy- ster Bed Bridge.

The price range of limestone spread on fields is from $7 to $8 per ton. This price may vary slightly. depending on the amount applied per acre, type of limestone, etc. If you are in- terested in having limestone spread by one of these machin- es contact the persons listed ‘above. Bulk spreading appears to be a very cheap and efficient way of getting limestone spread on fields. The only problem that has been mentioned is the os- Sibility of ‘wind drift when using ‘bulk spreadersand this can be controlled by use of the machin- es when only light wind is blow-_. ing or on calm days.
