hoped that these pages will aid teachers and students in making a worth while study of the conservation of the resources of Florida's soils. An effort has been made to print and distribute a sufficient number of copies to furnish each high school library with at least ten copies for the use of teachers and that of pupils en- rolled in the subjects above mentioned. The office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction is deeply indebted to the administrative officers of the several departments of the State Government concerned with the Con- servation of Natural Resources for their active and valuable cooperation in the preparation of these pamphlets.
