During the calendar year 1912, 34,872 square miles, or 22,318,080 acres, 

 were surveyed and mapped in detail, making the total area surveyed and 

 mapped up to the end of that year 284,118 square miles, or 181,835,520 acres. 

 There were also conducted reconnoissance surveys covering an area of 70,224

Soils of Franklin County. S. C. Jones (Kentucky Sta. TiuL 195 {1915). pp. 

 202-235, pi. 1). — This bulletin, prepared in cooperation with the Kentucky 

 Geological Survey, deals with the general characteristics, chemical composition, 

 and crop adaptabilities of the soils of an area of 200.73 square miles in the 

 so-called Purchase Region of Kentucky. The topography of the county Is 

 divided into four phases, namely, flat or undulating valley lands, abrupt cliffs 

 and limestone outcrops, sloping and more or less abrupt hills, and gently rolling 

 table-lands. The county Is drained by tl\e Kentucky River and Elkhorn, Benson, 

 and Flat creeks. 



The soils are of residual and transported origin, the latter covering 15 per 

 cent of the area. Thirteen soil types arc mapped, of which the yellow clay 

 loam residual soil of the hills and bluffs is the most extensive, covering 4.'».S2 

 per cent of the area. The yellow, brown, and stony loams are also prominent 

 types. Analyses of tj'P'cal samples of the soils of the area are reported, the 

 results of which are taken to indicate that " the average Franklin County soils 

 are abnormally rich in the mineral elements and, with the exception of the
