TEXT BOOK ON SOILS

Dr. Harris Contributes to the Contents by Giving Results of Experiments

The preliminary announcement of the publication of a new text book on "Soils," to be included in a series of text books on agricultural subjects to be used extensively throughout the English speaking world, of which Dr. Franklin S. Harris of the Utah Agricultural College is one of the authors, has been made.

With Dr. Harris are Prof. George W. Cavanaugh of Cornell University, and George F. Warren, also of Cornell University, as authors.

Dr. Harris's share of the work has been in connection with experiments in soils and dry farming he has performed at the Utah station.

Prof. Warren, who is head of the farm management and farm crops work at Cornell, has included this as his share in the text book and Prof. Cavanaugh, who is chemist at Cornell in relation to agricultural, has invigorated the chemical science in the text book.

Included in this same series of text books to be used as authoritative on agriculture in America, is one by William Jardine, graduate of the Utah Agricultural College, but now a member of the faculty at Kansas Agricultural College. Prof. Jardine's book is "Farm Crops."
