| The following is an extract from n de-
scrption of Vineland, published in Fae
| New York Tribune, by the well-knowp
| Agriculturist, SOlon Robinson:
All the farmers were Of the ''well to do.
| sort, and some Of them, who have turned
| their attention to fruits and market gard
! eillpg, nave grown rich. The soil is loan,
varying from sandy to olayoy, and surface
gently undulating, intersocted with small
| streams and occasional wet meadows in
! which deposits of peat or muck are stored,
! sufficient to fertilize the whole upland sur
1ace, aiter IT has been exhausted of IFS
natural fertility.
1t is certainly one of the most extensive
| fertile tracts, in an almost level position,
and suitable conditQn for pleasant farm
ing, that We know of this side of the West
| ern prairios. We found some of Tie old
est farms apparently just as prOhtably
| productive as when first cleared of forest
nifty or hundred years ago.
! The geologist would soon discover the
cause OF this continued fertility. Tho
! whole country is a marine deposit, andal
through the soil we found evidences Of
ealeareous substances, generallN in tho
form of indurated calcareous mari, show
| ing many distinct forms of ancient shells,
OF the tertiary formation; and this marly
| substance is scattered all through the soil,
in very comminuted form, and in tho
| exact condition most easily assinnnilated
! by such plants as the farmer desires to
| cultivate. ~ SIN
