Edward and Newton were happy that the know so much about the humus and its importance. Newton now said that I have seen that soils in different places have different color or texture. Edward told Newton that there are different types of soil that are found on earth. Newton then asked that what are the different types of soil?

Edward then made a list of the types of soil in a column on the basis of proportion of particles of various sizes and in another column, he mentioned the characteristics of different types of soil. The columns are as follows:
