The following is an extract from a de-
scription of Vineland, published in the
Now York Tribune, by the well-knowR
Agriculturist, SOlon Robinson:
All the farmers were of the "Well 10 do"
sort, and some of them, who have turned
their attention to fruits and market gard
ening, have grown rich. The soil is loan,
varying from sandy to claYeY, and surface
gently undulating, intersected with small
! streams and occasional wet meadows in
which deposits of peat or muck are stored,
sufficient 10 fertilize the whole upland sur
| face, after it has been exhausted OF ite
natural fertility.
1t is certainly one of the most extensive
fertile tracts, in an almost level position,
! and suitable condition for pleasant farm
ing, that we know of this side of the West
ern prsiries. We found some of the old
| est farms apparently Just as proftably
productive as 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 is marine deposit, and all
through the soil we found evidences OF
! calcareous suRstances, generally in the
! form Of induTAod caleareuns mari, show
| ing many distinct forms of ancient shells,
| Of the tertiary formation; and this marty
! substance Is scattered all through tho soil,
! In very comminuted form, and in the
exact condition most easily assimmilsted
/ by such plants as the farm " desires to
\ culJ vate. IN
