Agriculturist, SOlOn Robinson:
All the farmers were of tho "well to do
sort, and some Of them, who have turned
their attention TO fruits and market gard
ening, have grown rich. The soil is loam,
varying from sandy to clayey, and surface
gently undulating, interseeted with small
streams and occasional wet meadows i'm
which deposits of peat or muck are stored
sufficient 10 fertilize the whole upland SUR
iaee, after It has been exhausted OF its
natural fertility.

fer1tle tracts, in am almost level position
and suitable condition for pleasant fara-
hlg, ulst EHe know of this side of the West
era praiTiss. We found some. of the old
est t1rIeS 2PEAEeaLly Just as profitably
productive as when hrst cleared of forest
hitg or a hAadred years ago.

cause of this aOntiniad fertility. The
