The following isan extract from a descrip-
ton OF yinelInd, published i'm the NEW
YORK TRIBUNE, by the well known Agri-
culturist, Scion Robinson.
AL the ldIB4ltGS were Oh the wei 10 40
sort, and some ofthem, who have turned !.
their attention to fruits and market gar
dening, have gown rich. The soil l.
loan, varying from sandy and claycy and 4
surface gently undulating, intersected 1
with small streams and occasional wet .
meadows, in which deposits Of peat or .
muck are stored. sufficient TO fertilize the .
whole upland surface, after il has been .
exhausted ofits natural fertility.
It's certainly one Of the most extensive 4
tracts, in an almost level pasition, 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 as profitably pro.luc-
tive rs when first cleared Of forest fifty or
a hundred years ago.
The geolOgist would soon discover the
cause Of this continued fertility. The
whole country il marine deposit, and all
through the soil We found evidences OF
calcareOLs substances, generally In tile
form Of indurated calcarcous mari, show
ing many distinct forms Of ancient shells,
OF the tertiary formation; aud this marty
substance j. scattered all through the soil,
in 4 very cOmmnuted form, AMI ia tile
exact condition most easily assimiiatcd
By such plants a. tie farmer desires to
cultivate.
