| Abstract/Contents: | Defines the soil profile as the series of "various layers or horizons differing in their depth, thickness, color, texture, reaction and in other characteristics." Describes the role of drainage engineers and explains how soil texture is defined. Discusses flocculation and states that flocculation "depends largely upon the reaction of the soil, an acid reaction causing dispersion or deflocculation." Briefly profiles the Minnesota Greenkeepers' Association and their goals "to advance the art and science of greenkeeping, to cement the greenkeepers of the state into a closer relationship with each other and the National Association, to collect and disseminate practical knowledge of the problems of greenkeeping with a view to more efficient and economical maintenance of golf courses." |
