The well drained Fox and Ockley soils are on similar landscape positions and have more sand in the upper part of the sola. The very poorly drained Mahalasville and Westland soils are in depressional areas and drainageways, have gray subsoils, and have more sand in the upper part of the sola. Mahalasville soils have gravelly substratums where they are mapped in association with the Rush soils. The somewhat poorly drained Waynetown soils are on slightly lower positions and have gray mottles in the upper part of the sola. The potential for surface runoff is low or medium.
Permeability is moderate in the solum and very rapid in the underlying material.
Commonly cropped to corn, soybeans, and wheat. Some areas are used for hay and or woodland. The native vegetation is hardwood forests, mainly oaks. The series is moderately extensive. Vermillion County, Indiana, l930.
