Of the Minnesota experimental fields upon which elaborate liming experiments are being conducted, two give small response to liming with alfalfa. The soils of these two fields are as acid by methods commonly employed for soil acidity or the lime requirement as the soils of those upon which the response has been more marked for the same crop. In the present paper a comparison of these two slightly responsive soils with two which have responded in a more marked degree is reported.
