the competition, but did not
place in the top five.
The FFA members had
five sites, four to six feet
deep to judge. They deter
mined the slope, stoniness,
texture of surface soil, depth
of topsoil, depth of soil and
internal drainage. They then
determined the capability
class of the soil for
agriculture, identifying
natural limiting factors. The

and conservation
recomendations lor each
site. They also evaluated the
site for a house, septic tank
and disposal field; and
lagoon building.

each school will compete in
the state contest this
Summer at the Penn
sylvania State University.
The national competition
will be held next Spring in
