whole upland surface, after il has been
exhausted of its natural fertility.
It's certainly one Of the most cXt"nsly"
tracts, in an almost level pa.iriou, and sui
table condition for pleasant farming, that
we know of on this side Of the western
praries. We found some Of the oldest
farms apparently just Is prohiably prodnc-
tive as when first cleared Of forest ifty or
ahundrcd years ago.
The geologist would soon discover tho
cause Of this continued fertility. Tho
whole country ia marine deposit, and AL
through the soil We found evidence" OF
calcareods substances, generally IN ia"
form of indurated calcarcous mari, show
ing many distinct forms Of ancient shells,

In very comminutcd form, aud ia the
exact condition mort easily assimilaicd
by such plants as the farmer desires TO
cultivate.
