If it causes the paper to turn pink, your land needs lime and 2,000 pounds per acre will not be too much to apply. Autumn is the best time to apply the lime. Do not use it when applying barnyard manure, or you will lose much of the nitrogen from the latter. The rye and cowpeas will add considerable humus to the soil. What you now need more particularly is fiber and, if you had seeded your land down to timothy or a mixture of grass seeds last fall and left it in grass until the spring of 1916, you would have put considerable fiber in your soil. Spring in your state is not a partic- ularly good time for sowing grass seed. Therefore, the best thing would be to continue on much the same lines dur- ing the present year. Plow in the win- ter rye and, after a thorough cultiva- tion, sow down with cowpeas or soja beans. Either one is good and will put a lot of nitrogen into the soil. Plow these in when they have made their growth; then lime, if a test proves that your soil needs it. Cultivate thoroughly for a time to keep down weeds; then sow with rye again. In spring, plow the land and mix with well rotted manure for greenhouse use. The mix- ing can be done right on the field. C. W. NOTED NAME OF NASHVILLE. Three years ago, early in 1912, the firm then known as Mclntyre Bros, bought fin old dwelling at a low price on a live business street of Nashville. A coat of cement on the brick walls, the installation of a store front and the addition of a curved-eave conserva- tory made it one of the best flower stores in town. Not only has the property proved its value as a flower store, but
