LITTLE HOLLAND.
A Proposition to Dixie New Jerseys
Waste Land.

Proposition to Dixie New Jerseys
Waste Land.
From the Philadelphia Times
New Jersey is beginning to interest itself
in the subject Of retaining the extensive
tract Of marsh land lying between New
ark and Jersey City and stretching I'D the
Hackensack for a distance Of eighteen
miles. The tract which Is crossed by q
dozen lines of railway. contains Fl, 900
acres, which produce nothing at present
but swarms Of mosquitoes and a rank
growth Of bulrushes and salt marsh hay.
The mosquitoes are a nuisance to the resi-
dents of the neighboring towns, and the
bulrushes and salt hay have very little
commercial value. And yet the land on
which they grow is doubtless the most
fertile tract i'll the state.
The state geologfst has Just issued an
interesting report upon tie subject from
his consulting engineer who discusses the
methods and cost Of retaining these
lands. This,' he says, is just as feasible
as the drainage OF the fen lands OF Eng
land or the vast tracts which have been
rescued from the sea in Holland. He
proposes that the3iwork shall be done by
throwing UP sdykesl along the main water
courses and drawing the water off by
system of tide sluices and pumps ope-
rated by windmills, as in Holland. He
estimates the total necessary outlay at ST.
This would be trifle less than $50 an acre
for the q, 0O0-acren tract
AS every foot Of this land II reclaimed.
would be srfitable2'for market gardening.
with the most extensive market in Amer
lea within a. stones throw, the state of
New Jersey would find the undertaking a
profitable investment If the figures of the
engineer are5rorreet. A work of this kind
must be done under the supervision of the
state in order that there may be some re-
sponsibIe control Of dykes, pumps and
sluices, but 1t is probable that the present
owners would be willing to be assessed
for the cost Of the Improvement, or sell
at a reasonable rate to those who are will
ing to put money in the undertaking, so
that the state would in the end be able to
secure a return of every dollar of neces-
sary outlay. and be the instrument of
bringing under cultivation the finest tract
of agricultural land in the state.
The reclamation of this land, lying as
1t does at the very doors of Greater New
York, would serve another important pur-
pose besides restricting the mosquito crop
and turning worthless marsh into gar
den. and that Is that its cultivation would
furnish employment and q livelihood to
thousands Of the idle population of the
city. The experience Of England and
Holland having shown that the reclama-
ton Of this extensive tract Is perfectly
feasible, the work should be undertaken.
