• sandstone at a depth of 20 to 40 inches. Razor soils have a <br />B2 horizon that is more than 35 percent clay, and they have <br />shale at a depth of 20 to 40 inches. Satanta soils have a <br />62t horizon that is 18 to 35 percent clay. <br />Typical pedon of a Schamber gravelly loam in an area of <br />Schamber-Razor complex, 8 to 50 percent slopes, about 1,000 <br />feet south and 300 feet west of the northeast corner of Sec. <br />36, T. 17 S., R. 64 W: <br />Al-0 to 5 inches; grayish brown (lOYR 5/2) gravelly <br />loam, dark grayish brown (lOYR 4/2) moist; moderate <br />medium granular structure; slightly hard, very <br />friable; 30 percent gravel neutral; clear smooth <br />boundary. <br />AC-5 to 14 inches; brown (lOYR 5/3) very gravelly loam, <br />dark brown (lOYR 4/3) moist; weak coarse prismatic <br />structure parting to weak medium subangular blocky; <br />slightly. hard, friable; 40 percent gravel; mildly <br />alkaline; clear wavy boundary. <br />Cca-14 to 60 inches, light yellowish brown (lOYR 6/4) <br />very gravelly sand, yellowish brown (lOYR 5/4) <br />moist; single grained; loose, when dry or moist; 60 <br />• percent gravel; calcareous; moderately alkaline. <br />The solum ranges from 5 to 14 inches in thickness. The <br />control section is 35 to 70 percent coarse fragments. <br />Reaction ranges from neutral to moderately alkaline. The Al <br />horizon is grayish brown or brown gravelly sandy loam or <br />gravelly loam. The C horizon is pale brown or light <br />yellowish brown. <br />Razor Series: <br />The Razor series consists of moderately deep, well <br />drained soils that formed in residuum derived from shale. <br />These woils are on uplands. They have slopes of 3 to 15 <br />percent. Mean annual precipitation is about 13 inches, and <br />mean air temperature is about 49 degrees F. <br />Razor soils are similar to Midway soils and are near <br />Kutch, Schamber, and Terry soils and the similar Midway <br />soils. Midway soils do not have a 62 horizon and have shale <br />bedrock at a depth of less than 20 inches. Kutch soils are <br />darker colored and have a B2t horizon. Schamber soils are <br />sandy and are more than 35 percent coarse fragments. Terry <br />soils have a B2t horizon that is less than 18 percent clay. <br /> <br />- 32 - <br />
