Abstract
THE county of Kent, along with its neighbours Surrey and Sussex, became classical ground for the scientific survey of soils after the publication of “A Eeport on the Agriculture and Soils of Kent, Surrey and Sussex“by Sir Daniel Hall and Sir John Russell. Now, more than thirty years after that auspicious pioneer work, a “Survey of the Fruitgrowing Areas on the Lower Greensand in Kent“has been published by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (Bulletin No. 80. Pp. 81. H.M. Stationery Office, 1934. 3s. net). The Survey reports extensive work by Messrs. W. A. Bane, of East Mailing Research Station, and G. H. Gethin Jones, of the South Eastern Agricultural College, Wye, and collects the results of a large number of observations.
