Abstract

Excerpts from the Preface: This bibliography contains selected, annotated references to the literature published between 1936 and 1955 on the drainage of land for farming. Subjects included are methods and techniques, equipment, soil science and hydrology as related to drainage problems, needs and effects of drainage, descriptions of specific projects in many different countries, and drainage law and financing of drainage projects in the United States. Drainage for mosquito control and drainage of forests have been included, but references on drainage of land for nonagricultural uses such as roads and airports have been omitted except when techniques described are specifically applicable to agricultural projects. Because of the importance of the ground-water problem in the Western States to drainage questions, references on ground water in this area have been included, even when they do not themselves relate specifically to drainage.
