Excerpt from The Kali Soils of the Yellowstone Valley: From a Preliminary Investigation of the Soils Near Billings, Montana
Hilgard has been pointing out for years that the only safe practice in bringing a new area under the ditch, in a soil which is at all likely to have alkali, is to use water very sparingly and to keep the surface under very thorough cultivation so that a minimum amount of water shall evaporate from the surface of the ground and that there shall be no accumulation of seepage waters in the subsoil.
If these investigations do no mere than to show, the full results of overirrigation and the necessity of intelligent and careful application of water to the soil and the importance of underdrainage, where the alkali can not be otherwise controlled or' removed, the authors will be well repaid.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of alkali soils, how they form and the challenges they present to agriculture. Alkali soils are widespread in the Yellowstone Valley in Montana, and the author was commissioned to investigate the causes of their widespread rise and to develop plans for their restoration. The author discovered that alkali salts are naturally occurring components of the region's underlying rocks and are brought to the surface by groundwater. When irrigation practices result in excessive water accumulation in the soil, these salts begin to accumulate in the soil and can reach the surface via evaporation of excess groundwater, leaving salt crusts that are very damaging to crops. The book includes detailed maps of salt distribution in a series of borings and presents a range of possible solutions, including under-drainage and careful irrigation. This book will be of interest to anyone in the fields of geology or agriculture, or anyone interested in improving soil health and preventing soil degradation.
