Excerpt from Soils of Massachusetts and Connecticut, With Especial Reference to Apples and Peaches Southern New, England consists of a hilly plateau highest at the northwest and lowest along the seashore, the elevation showing a general range from less than 50 feet at the shore to feet in the northwest, with an extreme. Altitude at Mount Greylock of feet. The surface features of this area are locally complex, but it is nevertheless naturally divided into three upland blocks and two low land belts. These are, beginning at the west, the Taco-nic Mountain section, with general elevation of to feet; the Berkshire Valley; the Western Plateau, with general elevation ranging from sea level on the south to feet; the Connecticut Valley; and the Eastern Plateau, extending from the Connecticut Basin to the coast with general elevation ranging from sea level on the east and south to feet. For convenience in discussing the relation of the soil factor to fruit growing, and because of the importance of the elevation factor in such study, the Eastern Plateau is further divided on the basis of elevation into the Coastal' district; the framingham-boston low lands; the Eastern and Southeastern Plateau, with general elevation of 200 to 700 feet; and the Eastern Highlands, with general elevation of 7 00 to feet, the lower part of this section being superseded on the south by an extension of the Southeastern Plateau. Figure 1 shows the extent and relations of these several divisions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
