Children are —Send in only one sample from a yard or field that gives uniform crop response. But, take your sample from sev eral areas throughout the yard or field so that the sam ple will be representative of the entire area. —The bbst way to get a representative sample is to take a slice of the soil pro file down to a depth of four to six inches. Then go to an other spot and take another sample. Repeat this process, placing the profile slices in a clean bucket. When 6 to 10 slices are taken, mix the soil in the bucket, then pour out enough to fill the little carton provided for the sam ple. —You should repeat this process for other fields that might have different charac teristics. Take a separate sample for problem spots where plants don't grow well. —If you are sending sam ples from more than one area, it’s important that you sketch a map, identifying each place from which a sample is sent. Then, match this with a cor responding identification on the soil sample carton. File the sketch for later reference. —Take the samples to your county agent’s office and re quest that he forward them to the laboratory.
