The following is an extract from de
scriptiou of Vineland, published in III
New York Tribune, by the well know
Agriculturist, Scion Robinson.
All the farmers were of the "well {
do sort, and some of them. who hay
turned their attention to fruits and mar
ket gardening, have grown rich. Tn
soil is loan, varying from sandy TO clay
ey, and surface gently undulating, inter
sected with small streams aud occas Ona
wet meadows, in which deposits of pea
or muck are stored sufficient TO fertiliz
the whole upland surface, after it ha
been exhausted of its natural fertility
1t is certainly one of the most exten
sive tracts, in an almost level position
and suitable condition for pleasant farm
ing. that we know of this side of IN
Western prairies. We found some Of ih
oldest farms apparently just as proftabl
productive as when first cleared Of fores
fifty or a hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover tn
cause of this continued fertility. TIL
whole country is a marine deposit, an
all through the soil we found evidence
of calcareous substances, generally in th
form of indurated calcareous mari show
ing many distinct forms Of ancient shells
of the tertiary formation; and this mari
substance is scattered all through the a
in very comminuted form, and in th
exact condition most easily assimilate
by such plants as the farmer desires Z
cultivate. Duly2I-sin
