14 SOILS OF THE EASTERN UNITED STATES. 



Xo tree fruits may be grown to advantage upon the AVabash silt 

 loam, owing to the excessive moisture content of the subsoil, and to its 

 depressed topographic position. Orcharding should be confined to 

 adjoining uplands. 



The equipment of buildings, teams, and tools for this type of soil 

 is that of adjoining uplands, since there is very little occupation of 

 the type for home-making purposes, except in the banked and drained 

 districts of limited extent. 



Approved.

Secretary of Agriculture.
