EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The subjoined is a report on the Soil Survey of Clinton County, accompanied by a large-scale map in colors showing the distribution of the several types of soil recognized and described. This survey was made by E. T. Maxon, representing the Bureau of Soils of the United States Department of Agriculture, and W. R. Cone, representing the Department of Soil Technology of this College. The work was done in cooperation with the United States Bureau of Soils, of which Milton Whitney is Chief, Curtis F. Marbut is in charge of Soil Survey, and W. E. McLendon is Inspector of the Northern Division. A limited edition of this report is published by the United States Department of Agriculture as a separate from the Field Operations of the Bureau of Soils, but this College has none of these reports for distribution.

BEVERLY T. GALLOWAY,

Dean.
