Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lavas and Soils of the Hawaiian Islands: Investigations of the Hawaiian Experiment Station and Laboratories
The scope of the investigations, involving a careful study of the lavas from which the soils have been formed, may appear, at first sight, to extend beyond the require ments of the subject: An examination of the report in detail will, I believe, make it very clear that it would not have been possible to arrive at an understanding of the great differences in the nature of the soils, and in their economic values, without a preceding study of the lavas such as was undertaken.
