Apply Lime
with Caution
It Can Often Do More Harm Than
Good to Lawns Purpose Is to
Neutralize Acid Soils.
Lime may be unnecessary or actu
ally harmful to lawns. This does not
mean that it should never be used,
because there are cases where it is
needed, but lime must be usd intelli
gently. The function of lime is to correct
or neutralize acid soils when they are
to be used in growing plants which
do best in a neutral or alkaline soil.
It is necessary, therefore, that you
know the condition of your soil as
well as the preference of the plants
you are going to grow in it before
lime can be intelligently used. Many
dealers in lawn and garden supplies
will test soil for acidity free of
charge. Inexpensive testing kits will
enable you to do your own testing.
Many grasses do best on soil that
is slightly acid. Tou'll appreciate the
importance of this when you know
that an acid condition is unfavorable
to the growth of weeds.
Contrary to general belief, moss
is not necessarily a sign of acid soil.
It is rather a sign that present con
ditions are not favorable to the
growth of grass. Lack of available
plant food in the soil is often indi
cated by the growth of moss.
The impression that limt is a suit
able substitute for plant food should
be corrected. Even though a soil test
shows that because your lawn is too
strongly acid it is desirable to apply
lime, a well balanced plant food is
needed. An application right now of
4 pounds of complete plant food per
100 square feet, applied evently, is
necessary to make your lawn a thing
of real beauty, and velvety green.

PUNISHED FOR NON-VOTING
Berlin. 'Nazi punishment was
visited swiftly upon industrial work
ers who failed to vote in the March
29 rekhstag elections, it was dis
closed. They were summarily dis
missed from their jobs. The German
labor front, together with the nazi
party organization, prevailed upon
the employers to fire such "slackers,"
contending the fellow workers who
"did their duty" could not tolerate
the existence of the others in their
midst. One known case was that of
a man who had held a job with the
same concern for ten years.
The reichstag election was consid
ered by the nazis as a plebiscite upon
Keichsf uehrer Hitler's foreign policy.
Dr. Hugo Eckener, noted zeppelin
commander, was among those report
ed to have fallen into official dis
favor because he did not vote.
