ally more loamy. At a depth of from 3 to 5 feet occurs a gray or 

 mottled stratified clay. Generally well drained, but occasionally 

 small areas occur as depressions, where the drainage is deficient. 

 Such areas are locally referred to as "crawfish land." The natural 

 growth is scrub pine and oak. Produces fair yields of corn and 

 cotton, but is rather better adapted to early truck crops and 

 peaches. Soil needs green manuring for the incorporation of 

 more organic matter.
