SUB- AERIAL FORMATIONS AND SOILS. ' 255 



" True cotton soil was only seen here and there. The low plateau 



hills five miles south-east of Gulburga, for instance, 

 True regur. -i , 



are capped by cotton sou, the country below 



being of the dark-brown soil, with fine trap debris. 



" At the same time it should be mentioned that in very many cases 

 the dark-brown soil above referred to appears to shade gradually into 

 what may be considered as cotton soil; that is, that without very close 

 and possibly analytic examination, a boundary could not be drawn 

 between the two.^'
