GREAT IMPROVEMENTS IN AGRICULTURE
ON THE RAPPAIANNOCK RIVER.

W. nrr Libby grnti.icd 10 sco that the farmers on
the Rnppahannock Hiver are making such rapid I'M
provcIncnts in the system %. Agriculture. The crops
in that section nre more promising tsHn We have ever
seen them.
-. siIor, fine since we visited Port Tuba:", the uGs-
pitab.e residence of DR.. Edmund l.. White, situated
Immediately on tie Rappuhaniuck Rivcr, inile rnun-

tious we have ever bclc!d, tho scenery Is extensive

were particularly atruGk with Or. " hi;c.s corn crop
it is the most uxuriant ind promising we hareseen this
season. He has in cultivation upward. ol three hundred
acres. a portion Of it is planted about three feet one
way sud one foot the other. 1t is tue Impression of
practical farmers, that on that portion OF the field 1t
will yield him fron 90 to 2o barrels To the acre. His
wheat crop, we learned, WA magnificent
at about i,uUU bushels. With q good season, he will
make from lSOD to 2,0DO barrels Of corn. We were
informed that DR.. White worked twenty t"a bands
TN his iRrin, but that several of them were engaged,
during the season., in seine hauling on his shore. lie

These results are uttribrtGbir to extensive LINING,

chased his farm some fourteen years sincciur S33,cOO,
The land was then greatly impoverished from con-
slant cultivation, without The alplicutiuno vi the proper
resturatiYes.
We were pleased TO hear thar rome farmers on
either side ot the river, would, in ull probability reap
as:abuudant harrests as DR.. White. The TURNER'S Of
every class in that section, seem 70 be imbued with
the spirit Of Improvement. We believe that the State

feet, in Il great measure. Of infusing t!!a. spirit. Sue
