    A—0 to 71 centimeters (0.0 to 28.0 inches); black (10YR 2/1) clay loam; weak fine platy structure; hard; fragments; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # NDSU1996, NDSU1994, NDSU1992, NDSU1995, NDSU1993; dry when described;
    O—13 to 0 centimeters (5.1 to 0.0 inches); black (10YR 2/1) peat; loose; fragments, by hcl, unspecified; abrupt smooth boundary.; dry when described;. Groundwater at 127cm. Coarse fragments <1%.
