To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the production of such crops as spinach, cabbage, and lettuce it is frequently a good practice to lime the soil heavily before the crop is to be grown. The form which this application is to take depends largely upon the cost of the different forms of lime in the different localities where it is to be used. Burned stone lime or lump lime, which may be secured either by the barrel or in carload lots, is the most effective for agricultural purposes. This material must first be slaked and then w...hen finely powdered, it must be evenly distributed over the surface of the land and incorporated by harrow- ing to the depth of 2 or 3 inches in the surface soil. Some econ- omy in the use of lime is secured through its purchase in this form, as it contains no extraneous materials such as water or carbon dioxide to add to its bulk. EXTENT OF OCCUPATION. There is a wide variation in the degree to which the Norfolk sand is occupied for agricultural purposes in the different districts where it occurs.
