Gentlemen:
I have used American Limestone Company LIME (or one
'' year and find it satisfactory for peanuts, corn' and oats, espec
ially on bottom land for corn and oats.
I used It for peanuts entirely, and I am satisflfied it Is as
good or better than the other lime. I think it doubled my
crop of oats which was on bottom land, applied in the Spring
after oats were hand high. I think it doubled my corn on bot
tom land. I will use it this year.
Yours truly, "~~~
