a sample. No. 10, was obtained. All these latter soils yielded noticeably 

 lower results by analysis than No. 12. After traversing a distance of four 

 miles and rejoining the main road, a sample, No. 9, was taken from a 

 plateau covered with reeds and extending westwards for miles, up to the 

 borders of the forest. The soil here is almost all-through deficient. 



Below Millwood a sample of black loamy soil was collected, No. 3 in the 

 list. This class of soil extends southwards right down to the forest, where 

 it gives place to more clayey soil of a lighter nature. Of this latter, a 

 sample, No. 4, was taken in the forest on the way from Millwood to Bal- 

 moral, at a distance of 2| miles from the point where No. 3 was taken. 

 Neither of these two soils is chemically well provided.

Sample No. 14 was collected on the farm Sidgefield, at Groen Vallei. 

 Nos. 16, 18, and 19 were taken on the farms Salisbury, Bracken Hill (Lob 

 R.R.), and Matjesfontein, respectively, from lands intended to be utilised 

 for tobacco cultivation. The farm Salisbury adjoins Olyvenhout, or Holly- 

 wood, on the boundary of the George Division. North-west of Hollywood, 

 and nearer the George boundary, a sample of soil, No. 15, was collected 

 from Lot B (2). 



The analytical results obtained from the soils of this Division are com- 

 prised in the following tables :
