The upland prairie.© soils are usually rich in organic matter and orginally had a generous supply of furtility. <There were covered -- with prairie grasses the . partly decayed of the organic matter. The flat and poorly drained -- areas are richest in organic--matter--because the excessive-- moisture in the soil did not allow the grasses to decay as rapidly as it did on the higher ground. These_ areas when tile drained make some of the most productive land in the country. ' 4. Swanp and boitom lands which iadudeth,hv.mmnqnho | and the poorly drained . lowlands. 2. The upland timber ~soils are much like the prairie soils~ except that they contain much less organic matter. These areas were ofce cov-- 'udwithfimber'hldlmwthe} growth of grass&and the forest fires destroyed the accumulation of leaves, twigs and fallen trees. The organic matter that did remain was almost completely decayed and was not in-- corporated with the soil, The upland timber soils need lots of organic 'matter, These soils Often bake after m rain and lose moisture rapidly due to lack of humus. 8.~ Terrace soils were formed at the time of the melting of the glacier when the valleys were fiooded and the ment. 'They are sometimes : called second bottom lands and are usually underiain by gravel or sand . Analyses of these soils made by the state University show a . wide dif-- ference in fertility. Even soils of the same type vary in production due to natural differences in the fertility of the virgin soil or due to different systems of farming. Some systems exhaust the fertility much more rapidly than others. A freld on one side of the fence may produce thirty bushels of corn per acre while the other side of the fence will yield fifty bushels. Both fields have the same care and the same type of soil. In one the soil has been robbed year LAKE COUNTY SOILS a large part EDITED BY --C. E. WHEELOCK County Farm Adviser.

Three--fourths of the phosphorus taken from the -- soil is deposited in the grain so that by re-- turning all the straw and »talks there is a great drain on this element of fertility. The potassium in the most com-- mon soil types (not including péat) is sufficient for 36 centuries if only the grain is sold; a considerable difference phosphorus. m I. A. A.
