Soil and Timber.— The soil is one derived entirely from the Drift, and 

 may be denominated in general a gravelly clay. It exhibits the well- 

 known characteristics of fertility and endurance that mark all the Drift 

 soils of north-western Ohio. It shows a very fair sprinkling of stones 

 and bowlders, but in some places is very fine and heavy. It is only 

 along the immediate river banks, on the bottom lands, that the sandy 

 element prevails, and it is then confined to the alluvium. 



The trees of the county consist of the usual deciduous varieties. The 

 following species were noted : 



Acer saccharinum — Sugar Maple Wang. 



Fagus ferruginea — Beech Ait. 



Ulmus Americana — Elm (pi. Clayt.) Willd.
