seription Of Yineland, published in the
New York Tribune. by the well-known
Agriculturist, Solon Robinson:

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 to fertilize the ewhole upland sur
face, after it has been exhausted of its
natural fertility.

fertile tracts, in an almost level position,

est farms apparently just as proftably
productive as when first cleared of forest
fifty or hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover the
cause of this continued fertility. The
whole country is a marine deposit, and all
through the soil we found evidences of
calcareous substances, generally in the
iorm Of indurated calcareOus mari, show
ing many distinct forms of ancient shells.
