Clay Pure clay is kaolin, which is formed by the disintegration of feldspar.Clay as found in soils is composed of silica, feldspar, limestone, mica,kaolin and other like formations. Particles are much finer than sand,being less than 0.005 mm. in diameter. Clays are very compact, many being practically impervious towater. Clay soils are usually cold when wet, and the tempera-ture remains lower than lighter soils in the same field. If culti-vated while wet, they become puddled. When the moistureevaporates, they contract, crack and become extremely hard, renderingcultivation very difficult. Silt is composed of particles which vary in size between sand and clay. Theparticles being smaller and lighter than sand and larger and heavier thanclay, they settle, when soil is roiled in a stream or ditch, on top of sand.The beds of irrigation ditches usual
