<br /> The A or Ap horizons have hue of lOYR,value of 2 or 3,and chroma of 1 ar 2. The E
<br /> horizon where present,has value of 3 to 5,and chroma of 1 to 3.The A and E horizons
<br /> are loam or clay loam,but sandy loam,fine sandy loam,or silt loam is within the range.
<br /> They range from moderately acid to neutral.
<br /> The Bt horizon has hue of lOYR or 2.SY,value of 4 or 5,and chroma of 3 or 4. It is clay
<br /> loam or loam and has 24 to 35 percent clay and 30 to 45 percent sand.The B/A clay
<br /> ', ratios range from 1.2 to 1.4.It is strongly acid to slightly acid in the upper part and
<br /> moderately acid to neutral in the lower part.A Bw horizon is sometimes present below
<br /> the Bt.
<br /> The Bk horizon has hue of l OYR or 2.SYR,value of 4 or 5,and chroma of 3 to 6.The Bk
<br /> horizon is loam or clay loam. It is slightly alkaline or moderately alkaline. Relict
<br /> redoximorphic features are present in some pedons.
<br /> ' The C horizon has hue of 2.SY or lOYR,value of 4 to 6,and chroma of 3 to 6. It is Ioam
<br /> or clay loam. It is slightly alkaline or moderately alkaline.Relict redoximorphic features
<br /> are present in some pedons.

<br /> tl'inneshi;.k soils in the same family.Angus and Sebbo soil have saturation in the lower
<br /> ' third of the series control section.Argyle, Baltimore,and Oneco soils have B horizons
<br /> with 7.SYR or redder hue.Bassett soils are very strongly acid to moderately acid in the
<br /> upper part of the Bt horizon. Blooming and Racine soils have 15 to 35 percent sand in the
<br /> upper part of the particle-size control section. Caleb soils have some subhorizons that
<br /> have more than 45 percent in the lower part of the control section.Dowagiac and Koronis
<br /> soils have less than 24 percent clay in the lower one third of the particle-size control
<br /> section. Dunbridge, Waucoma,Newcomer and Winneshiek soils have sola terminated by
<br /> bedrock at depths above 60 inches. Gara soils average less than 2 percent rock fragments
<br /> in the control section. Longlois,Lydic, and Neda soils have more than 8 percent rock
<br /> fragments in some subhorizon of the control section.Lauramie soils have more than 45
<br /> percent sand in some subhorizon in the middle part of the control section. Mohawk soils
<br /> have a higher content of sih and have dark colors in the B horizon which apparently are
<br /> inherited from dark shale. Orwood soils have no rock fragments in the particle-size
<br /> control section.Razort soils have less than 30 percent sand in the control section.
<br /> GEOGRAPffiC SETTING: These soils have convex slopes on moraines and till plains.
<br /> Slope gradients range from 5 to 70 percent. They formed in calcareous, loamy glacial till
<br /> ` of late Wisconsinan Age. Mean annual temperature ranges from 45 degrees to 52 degrees
<br /> F.Mean annual precipitation ranges from 25 to 33 inches.Frost free days range from 125
<br /> to 165.Elevations range from 700 to 1600 feet.
