A Great swamp Reclaimed.

A correspondent of the New York
Times, writing from Goshen, N. Y,
tells how 500 acres of pestilential marsh
east of tina. village have been converted
into the richest of farm land through
the wisdom of one man. The reclaimed
swamp is crossed by the Erie Railway,
and was one of the most serious 0bsta-
cles encountered by its engineers. To
construct foundation for the road-bed
it was necessary to drive multitude of
piles to the depth of 100 feet, and cover
them with hundreds of thousands Of
loads of stone and dirt; the building of
one mile of road across the swamp cost
ing more than any other five miles of
the road from Jersey City to Piermont.
Twenty years ago farmer conceived
the idea of draining a portion OF the
tract and making it tillable soil. By
ditching, he reclaimed 60 acres. The
first acre he bought cost him 81. When
it was found that the draining left as a
soil the finest of black muck, composed
almost entirely of vegetable mold, the
price advanced to $17 an acre. AT
ter the 60 acres were reclaimed,
the price still further increased, until
to-day as high as 81, 900 has been paid
for the reclaimed land. The ruling
price is $500 an acres. The great value
of the land is owing to its extraordina-
~ adaptability to the culture of onions.
A crop of 300 bushels of onions TO the
acre is not uncommon, and the Grey
court onion meadows are celebrated
throughout the country. About 800
acres are under cultivation this year,
and the success of the onion business
in the meadows has led to the reclaim
ing of similar lands in other parts of
the country, until it is believed that the
onion crop of Orange County will
amount to 100000 bushels this year.
The average price received by onion
raisers is 81 a bushel. The average
yield is 800 bushels to the acre. The
crop is almost invariably sold for cash
as soon as it is ready for market, and
as it natures early in the season, the
farmer is allowed abundant time to keep
his land in the condition necessary to
its productiveness.
There are II, 900 acres of swamp land
in the Waikiki Valley, which will event
ually be converted into this muck soil,
which is the best in the world for vege-
table raising. The land, after draining,
is titled with the slightest labor. Onion
seed is sown by hand drill, and the
greatest labor is in keeping down the
weeds after the plant begins to grow.
This work is done by boys and girls.
Hundreds of these may be seen in the
growing season on their hands and
knees between the onion rows, pulling
up the weeds that the rich soil calls rap.
idly into existence. The wedding re.
quires skill and care, as the soil is sc
loose that there is constant danger Of
tearing up the young and tender plants
by their roots, or removing their cover
i ing of earth. The red onion is the vari-
ETY. grown the most successfully, as the
dark muck gives the white onion dirty
hue, which Injuries its marketable value
When the onion tops are at the height
of their growth, their oior fills the all
for great distances around.

weaknesses Of Mr.. Hayes and to profit BY
them. He has shown upon how weak
foundation the objections Of Mr.. Hayes to
the bills passed BY Congress rests. He has
shown that the purpose Of tho Democratic
party In passing those bills was thoroughly
patriotic, and that it was in complete accord
with the constitution.
against the Republican party a. the facts
would warrant, yet he has exposed some of
the weaknesses of the party in such man
ner as to carry conviction with ii. He has
exposed the partisanship Of the vetoes in.
the lost emphatic manner. He has shown
the falsity Of the pretense that the Republic
can party is party Of exceptional vir-
tue and that such pretense is .
hollow mookery. He has shown that the
employment of troops at the polls is re-
cent innovation, and had never been sane
toned in the sense that Mr.. Hayes sane
toned it, at any stage of the existence of the
nation.
Mr.. Knott's pronunciamento will have q
beneficial effect upon the public at large. II
will enlighten those who are yet in the dark
as to the issues involved in the recent CON
test. II is clear, manly exposition of prin-
ciples, and as such will command the atten-
ton of the whole public.
