All the farmers were of the ''well to do"
sort, and some of them, who have turned
their attention to fruits and market garden
ing, have grown rich. The soil is loan,
varying from sandy TO clayey, and surface
gently undulatlng, intcrsceted with small
streams and occasional wet meadows, in
which deposits of peat or muck are stored,
sufficient to fertalize the whole upland SUR
face, after ii has been exhausted Gifts natural
fertility.

tracts, in an almost level position, ond suit
able condition for pleasant farming, that we
know of this side Of the Western prairies.-

cleared of forests fifty or hundred years ago.
The geologst would soon discover the
cause OF this continued fertility The whole
country is u marine deposit. and all through
the soil we found evidences of calcareous
substances generally in the form of indura
ted calcareous marl showing many distinc
forms of ancient shells, of the tertiary for
nation and this marty substance is scatter
ed all through the soil in q very commercial
form, and in the exact condition most easily
lssimilated by such plants as the farmer
desires to cultivate. ilS2lmSl
