The following iSan extract from descrip-
ton of Niucldnd, published IN the NEW
YORK TRIBUNE, 10y the well known Agri-
culturist, SCION Robinson.
All the farmers were of The well 10 do
sort, and some ofthem, WnO have turned
IIltll alltllllDIl W Hll@ anu Ulll MI gar
dcning, have giown rich. The sUil is
loan, varying from sandy and clayey,and
surface gently unduldting, intcrsGcted
with small streams and occasional WEI
meadows, in which deposits of peat or
muck are stored. sufficient to fDrtiilc the
whole upland surface, after II has been
exhausted of its natura, fertility.
It is certainly one Of the most extensive
tracts, in al almost level pa>ilIou, and SUI
table condition for pleasant EARNING, that
we know of Oh this side OF the Western
prairies. We found some oil the oldest
farms apparently just proiitably pr0duc-
tive rs when first cleared OF forest iiIty or
ahundred years ago.
The geOlogist would soon discover ths
cause OF this continued icrdlity. The
whole country is marine deposit, and all
through the soil We found evidences 81
calcareoLs substances, generally IN the
form of indurated calcarcous mari, show
ing many distinct forms Of ancient SHELF,
Of the tertiary formation; aud this marty
substance Is scattered all through the SOL,
in n very comminuted form. aud in the
exact condition most easily assimilatcd
by such plants rs the farmer desires to
cultivate.
