FRIDAY. JULY IL. 1915

The Washington State Geological
Survey is cooperating this year
with the U. S. Department of
Agriculture in the soil survey of
Benton county which was COM
menced last year. Under the CO.
operative arrangement adopted for
these soil surveys, each institution
pays the salaries and expenses of
its own men, while the Federal
Government bears the expense of
inspecting the work and publishing
the report for each county.
This report will be accompanied
by a large map showing in colors
the location of the various kinds of
soils with reference to roads,
schools. churches. watercourses and
other features of the county. The
nature of the soils, their adaptable
ity for various crops and sugges-
lions for the most advantageous
use of fertilizers will also be dis
cussed in detail, together with full
information on existing agricultu-
raj conditions. Several months
will be required to prepare the re-
port and map after the survey has
been completed. =
