PAGE 8 OCTOBER 29, 1970 #& GARDEN DIRT Are you getting a good return for the time, seed and fertilizer expended on your garden or lawn? Most anybody can tell to look at the soil if it is too coarse or too compact and thus take steps to correct the problem, but soil chemistry also plays a part. If certain elements are not in the proper balance a lot of time and money can be wasted put- ting on fertilizer which is not doing the plants any good. A soil analysis, performed by the Ontario Agri- cultural College, can be arranged through the local Horticultural Society = Mr. John Steen has a supply of the boxes for sending soil sampled so that you will have the results back before spring planting time. To prepare a soil sample for analysis, take scoops from several locations in your garden going down to { a depth of six or seven inches and mix it all together well. About a pint of this mixture is required for the analysis. If one part of the garden is different from the rest, a separate sample should be submitted for that part. TERRACE BAY NEWS !
