It can be very challenging to locate information about individual ISU Extension publications via the library website. Quick Search will list the name of the series, but it will not list individual publications within each series. The Parks Library Reference Collection has a List of Current Series, Serial Publications (Series Publications of Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service), published as of March 2004. It lists each publication from 1888-2004 (by title and publication number - and in some cases it will show an author name).

Abstract
The results secured on 13 cooperative soil experimental fields on the Grundy silt loam in Southern Iowa have shown that the Iowa System of Soil Management when put into, operation on that soil type, will definitely increase the yields of general farm crops.
Occasionally the Grundy silt loam is not adequately drained, especially on some of the broad, level to flat areas of the type, and tiling is the first treatment needed to make such areas satisfactorily productive.
Ordinary farm practice usually provides satisfactory cultivation, and this is especially important on this type because it stimulates the production of available plant food.
