<br /> � Bt3--38 to 43 inches; yellowish brown (lOYR 5/4) loam; Yew fine prominent reddish brown
<br /> mottles; moderate fine and medium prismatic structure; friable; few distinct dark yellowish
<br /> � brown (lOYR 3/4) clay films on faces of peds; about 5 percent course fragments; sli�htly acid;
<br /> abrupt wavy boundary. (Combined thickness of Bt horizons is 12 to 30 inches.)
<br /> � C--43 to 60 inches; light olive brown (2.SY 5/4) loam; few fine faint grayish brown (2.SY S/2)
<br /> and light olive brown (2.SY 5/6) mottles; massive; friable; and 5 percent coarse fragments; slight
<br /> effervescence; mildly alkaline.
<br /> , TYPE LOCATI�N: Rice County, Minnesota; about 4 miles north of Faribault; 1,920 feet east
<br /> and 30 feet north of the southwest corner of sec. 1, T. 110 N., R. 21 W.
<br /> RANGE IN CHARACTERISTICS: Solum thickness and depth to free carbonates range from
<br /> � 24 to 54 inches. Coarse fragments of mixed lithology comprise 2 to 8 percent of the volume of
<br /> the control section.
<br /> The A horizon has hue of lOYR, value of 2 or 3, and chroma of l or 2. The Ap horizon has value
<br /> � of 4 or 5 and chroma of 1 or 2 and value of 6 when dry. The E horizon has hue of ]OYR, v�lue of
<br /> 4 ar 5, and chroma of 1 or 2. The A and E horizons typically are loam, silt loam, sandy loam, or
<br /> fine sandy loam, but include clay loam, if eroded. They are neutral to medium acid.
<br /> � The BC horizon has htle of lOYR in the upper part and lOYR or 2.SY in the lower part, value of 4
<br /> or 5, and chroma of 3 through 5. Mottles are present in the lower subhorizons in some pedons. It
<br /> typically is clay loam or loam, but sandy clay loam is in parts in some pedons. The argillic
<br /> ' horizon has 18 to 35 percent clay and 30 to 45 percent sand. It is slightly acid to strongly acid.
<br /> Some pedons have a BC horizon.
<br /> The C horizon has a hue of lOYR or 2.SY, value of 4 or 5, and chroma of 3 through 6. It is loam
<br /> � or clay loam. It lacks mottles in some pedons. It has 15 to 25 percent calcium carboilate
<br /> equivalent and is mildly or moderately alkalikne.

<br /> Sisson, Strawn, Summitville, Teanaway, Theresa, Wawasee, Westville, Whalan, and Wo��clhine
<br /> � soils in the same family. Amanda horizon soils have more illite in the B and C horizon; Belmont
<br /> soils have redder hue in the B horizon. Belmore, Chili, Kalamazoo, and Ockley soils formed in
<br /> glacial outwash and have sandy or sandy-skeletal 2C horizons. Chenault soils have chert
<br /> � fragments in the solum and are underlaid by limestone bedrock. Coggon, Gallman, Hickory,
<br /> Pecatonica, Renova, Riddles, Summitville, and Westville soils have thicker sola. In addition,
<br /> Coggon soils have low chroma mottles in part of the B2 horizon. Conestoga, Kendallville, Letort,
<br /> � Richland, and Rockbridge soils have more coarse fragments. Douds, EI Dara, Kidder, Sisson, and
<br /> Wawasee soils have less clay and more sand or silt in the lower part of the B horizon and in the C
<br /> horizon. High Gap, Hollinger, Mandeville, Mifflin, Military, Norden, Roseville, Whalan, and
<br /> � Woodbine soils have bedrock beginning between depths of 20 and 60 inches. Grellton, Hebron,
<br /> Lindley, and Rawson soils have more silt or clay or both in either the lower part of the B h�>rizon
<br /> or C horizon or both. Kanawha soils are formed in alluvium from acid shale and are in an area of
<br /> � higher rainFall. LeRoy and Strawn soils have thinner sola. McHenry and Miami soils have more
