These are the Hayden , Lester , Le Sueur , and Luther series. The well drained Hayden soils and the somewhat poorly drained Luther soils are other members of the same drainage sequence. Hayden and Lester soils are on convex slopes downslope from the Ames soils. Le Sueur and Luther soils are on level areas that are slightly higher in elevation than the Ames soils. Poorly or very poorly drained.
Permeability is slow.
Surface runoff is slow to ponded. Some areas are used for cultivated crops if artificially drained. Corn, soybeans, small grains, and hays are grown. Many areas are in pasture or trees. Native vegetation was trees and grasses tolerant to wetness.
