VIM PARISH SOILS.
Are Now Being Surveyed and
Mapped by the u. S.
Government.

Messrs. Thos. \. Caine and H..
l.. Belden of the Bureau of Soils
United States Department of Ag-
riculture have just arrived in
Winfield for the purpose of
making a soil survey of the
parish. The work which they
have before them will take until
about May | for completion.
They are making map (scale
one inch equals one mile) which
will show in different coiors the
location of all of the different
kinds of soil in the parish. \
good many samples of soil are
collected from each of the differ
ent kinds of land and these are
to be sent to Washington for
analysis. \ report will be writ
ten by Mr.. Game which will dis
cuss the climate, geology, early
agriculture, present agricultural
development, agricultural meth
DDS and conditions and sugges-
tions for improvements: and each
Of the different classes of soil
will be described in detail. The
object of the work is to bring out
just what kind of soils there are
here and what each of these is
best adopted to grow and what
kind of cultivation and methods
of fertilization are best to bring
out the results.
This is class of work which
has been carried on by the Bureau
of Soils for a good many years,
and one of the great values of
the work is to correlate the soils
of different states. Thus the
farmers here will have chance
to see what farmers in other
parishes of Louisiana and i'll
Texas, Mississippi and Alabama
are doing on these same soil
types. For example, if it were
found that the red sandy soils in
Winn parish are the same as those
in Texas where liberia peaches
and Tobacco are so successfully
grown the conclusion would prob
ably be that the farmers here
might be equally successful pro-
vided the climate were the same
and the same methods of cultiva-
ton and fertilization were used.
The report will also call the at
tention of the whole United
States to what soils exist in Winn
parish and thus it may encourage
immigration.
The soil survey party is using
the Typographical map made by
Prof. O.. ID. Harris. For that
portion of the parish not covered
by Prof. Harris map, the party
will make their own map, by
traversing the roads and streams
and locating the houses, churches
and school buildings.
The work now being done is in
cooperation with the Louisiana
Geological Survey of which Prof
CT. d. Harris is now Director and
also at the head of the Geological
Department in the State Univer>-
ity at Baton Rouge.
