! The following is an extract from de-
! scription of Yineland, published in the
! New York Tribune, by the well-known
| Agriculturist, SOlon Robinson:
All the farmers were of the "well TO 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
I gently undulating, intersected with small
| streams and occasional wet meadows in
| which deposits of peat or muck are stored,
sufficient to fertilize the whole upland sur
| face, after it has been exhausted of its
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 prairies. We found some of the old
est farms apparently just as proftably
productive as when first cleared of forest
nifty or hundred years ago.
The geOlogist would soon discover the
cause of this continued fertility. The
whole country is n marine deposit, and all
through the soil we found evidences oi
ealcareous substances, generally in the
form Of indurated calcareous mari, show
ing many distinct forms of ancient shells
OF the tertiary formation ana this marly
substance is scattered all through the soil
) IN very comminuted form, and in the
exact condition most easily assimmilatoC
