More About Pike 60. A Black Clay Loam Soil Study

C G Hopkins J G Mosier E Van Alstine and F W Garrett describe Pike county black clay loam prairie soil known as gumbo. It covers 70 acres in patches with granular surface soil that resists wet puddling and drains poorly yet improves with granulation from freezing or moisture changes. Subsoil 10 to 15 inches deep becomes lighter and drab yellow, with more clay but remains permeable due to jointing. Emphasizing drainage, organic matter, lime, and timed cultivation, they advise turning under manure, clover, and crop residues to maintain granularity and soil condition.
