The following is description OF Nlneland,
published IN the New York Tribune, by the
well known agriculturist, Solon Robinson:
All of the farmers were of the well to do
sort, and some of them, who have turned their
attention to fruits and market gardening, have
grown rich. The soil is loan, varying from
sandy to clayey, and surface gently undulating,
intersected with small streams and occasiona'
wet meadows, in which deposits of peat or muck
are stored, sufficient to fertilize the whole up
land surface, after it has been exhausted OF its
natural fertility.
n is certainly Of the most ertensre tracts, s''
an almost lerel position, and suitable condition yor
pleasant Jdrning that knotc Of this side q fhe
Western praries. We found some Of The oideSf fa1''S
apparently just proftably productive as 'rHe FTs'
cleared Of forest J}ty or hundred years ago.
The eeologist would soon discover the cause OF
this continued feltility. The whole country Is
marine doposit and all through the soil we
found evidences of calcareous substances, gem
erally in the form of calcareous mari, showing
MANY distinct forms of ancient Shells of the ter
tiary formation; and this marty substance Is scat
tered all through The soil IN rery eoRaminutei form,
and in the eract condition most easily dssmdsed By
such plants as the farmer desires 10 ctltirdte.
