Excerpt from Reconnoissance Soil Survey of North Eastern Wisconsin The first area surveyed included Portage, Wood, Clark, Taylor, Lincoln, Marathon, and portions of Price and Langlade Counties. The first survey of the soils of this area was made a number of years ago by Doctor Samuel Weidman in connection with the geological survey, and the classification followed in this work differed some what from that at present in use, and the maps do not show as much detail. The reports on this survey are no longer available. How ever, the field work of an entirely new survey of the soils of Portage, Wood, Clark, Taylor, Marathon, and Lincoln Counties has been completed and it is hoped that the report and new map of the soils of these counties will be ready for distribution early in the year 1917. The second area, called the South Part of North Western Wis consin, included Polk, Barron, most of Rusk, and all of Chippewa, Dunn, St. Croix, Pierce, Pepin, and Eau Claire Counties.
