The mapping is the first step in the
study of the sOtlstof-a county. This is
followed by analysis of the various
soil types showing the state Of plant
food present and what constituents
are lacking. Tests are then made in
The greenhouse to indicate the fertil.
fzer needs, of the soils and wherever
possible. field tests are also carried
out. From the facts gained in these
studies, systems of soil management
are worked out which. should be fol-

the reports are made Of the most
practical value. 49,.
Reports are now available on nine
of the surveyed counties: Bremen,

this car runs very smoothly, but
whenever it hoes over 20 m. p. h.
the car vibrates. At 80 m. p. h. 1t
Is very annoying and uncomfort-

the more it vibrates. The car has
been looked over, and everything
seems to be tight. Can you suggest
a remedy Andrew N.
After thoroughly inspecting the car
and all working parts seem to be func-
tioning properly there Is but one thing
which would cause the trouble referred
to-an unbalanced flywheel or a mis-
aligned clutch Test for the unbal-
anced flywheel in this manner: Start
the engine and let 1t run idly for a
few minutes until 1t is firing evenly.
Notice whether there is any vibration
of the engine when it is turning over
at a crankshaft speed which would
propel the car ~ to Is m. p. h. There
will be some, of course, but note just
how much by resting the hand on the
engine or the front fender. Then speed
the engine up to a rate equal to rs Or
80 m. p. h., taking particular note OF
the vibration set up. II 1t increases and
comedies with the vibration on the
read, it is likely the flywheel Is out of
balance. If nothing is found in this
test, jack up the rear of the car and
shift the transmission into direct
speed following the same course. II
the vibration is now located, it is evil
