the hill to diggin' n hole about five feet
nero-,t ; and he kept on n diggin' it till he
got, clean down to a level v ith the iloor ;
and then he came down into the house anil
(luy out n alltired, bouncin' big lire place,
till it reached the bottom of the hole; after
which, you sec, he was ready to fire up.
"Well, ono orful cold night in the winter,

purty well along "
".Now, Dave, do for goodness Bakes quit a
Jellin' on that 1 I think I'd be nshauicd on

"I'm ktr up, old 'un, pucker up till I get

It was away Into in the night "
".Shockin' sitch a man ! You'd better

"Stop, now, none of that you hush, Dave,

(inly Thirty Miles South of Philadelphia, on
KaitroaU ; being a rich, heavy soil, aiul highly
productive wheat land ; amongst tho lest iu tho
Uurden Statoof Now Jersey.
It consists of 211.000 acres of good land, divided
into J' arms of Uinercnt uses to suit tho purchaser-
from 20 acres aud upwards and is sold at the rate of
!Ha to 92tl per ncrc tor tho larm land, payable one
fourth cash, aud the balance by quarter-yearly instal
ments, with legal interest, within the term uf four
years.
THE SOIL
If. in great part, a Rich Clay Loam, tuitnlilo f.
Wheat, Uruss and Potatoes ulso a dark and rie
sandy loam, suitablo fur Corn, Sweet Potatoes. To
bacco, all kinds of vegetables and root crots, and tho
tinest varieties of fruit, suchasOrapcs, Peaches. Pears,
Apricots, Noctariues, Blackberries, Melons, and other
fruits, best adapted to the Philadelphia aud Now
York markets. In respect to the soil and srops'.bcre
cun be no mistake, as visitors can examine both, and
none are expected to buy before so doing, aud finding
theso statements correct under these circumstances,
unless those statements wero correct, there would bu
no use in tholr being mado. It is considered
Tub Best Fudit goi, in tiik Union.

William Parry, of Ciunamlnson, New Jursey, which

THE MARKET.
By looking over tho wan the reader will ncrceiv
lliiit it enjoys tho best market in the Union, aud has
direct communication with New York and Philadel
phia twice a day, being only thirty-two miles from
tho latter. Produce in this market brings double the
irice that it docs in locations distant from the cities,
u this location it can be put into market the same
morning it is gutherud, and for what the farmer sells
he gots the highest price ; w hilst groceries and other
articles ho purchases, he gets at the lowest price. In
tho West, what ho sells brings him a pittance, but for
what he buys he pays two prices. In locating hore
the settler -lias many other advantages. lie is within
a fow hours, by railroad, of all Iho great cities of Now
England aud the Middlo States, lie is near his old
frieuds and associations. He has school for his chil
dren, divine service, and all the advantages of civil
ization, aud be is near a large eity.
THE CLiMATU
Is delightful ; tlio winters being salubrious and open,
whilst Ihe summers aro no warmer than in the North.
Tho location is upon the lino uf latitude wilh uorlheru
Yirgiula.
; Persons wanting a change of climate for health,
would be much benefitted in Vinolund. The mild
ness of the climute and its bracing influence, makes
it excellent lor all pulmonary affections, dyspc)uia,
or general debility. Visitor will notice a diflereuco
iu a few days. Chills and fuven are unknown.
CONVEXIEXCIES AT II AND.
Building material is plenty. Fish and Oyiters are
plentiful and cheap.
Visitors must expect, however, to sec a new place.
WHY THE PROPERTY HAS NOT BEEN SET
TLED DKFOHE.
This question Ihe reader naturally asks. It is be
cause it ha been held In large tracts by families not
disposed to sell, and being without railroad faeilitie
they had few inducements. The railroad baa Just
been opened through the property this season, tor the
first time.
Visitors are shown over the land In a carriage, free
of expense, and afforded time and opportunity fur
thorough investigation. Those who ootue with a viow
to settle, should bring money to secure their purcha
ses, as locations aro not hold upon refusal.
The ealoet thing in hard times, where people have
been thrown out of employment or btuiucu, some
little means or small inuiuue, is to Hail themselves at
buuie. They can buy piece ol tan J at t small price,
and call mere than make wages tn Improving It, and I
when it is done it Is a eertaln Independence and no
loss. A few aeres In fruit trees will insure a oomfor-
table living. The land la put down to hard time I
prices, and all improvement can bemaueat acnoap
er rate than any other tlmo,
The whole tract, with six miles front on the Rail
road, is being laid out with fine and spacious avenues,
ith a town in the centre nve acre lota In the town
sell at from $100 to $200 ; two and a half acre lots, at

cop, at $100 pnyablo ono hall cash and the balance I

or more that four years' time Is given.
To Manufacturers, tho town affords a fine opening
of the Shot manufacturing business, and other arti
cles, being nenr Philadelphia, and tlie surrounding
country hns a largo population, which affords a good
market.
This settlement. In tho oourso of several Venn, will

Advantages of harming near home Vinelaud
Hcmurls v)ton Marl Soil, its great fertility
The Cause of Fertility Amount of Crops
l'roditeed Practical Evidence.
If Is certainly one of tho most extensive fertile
tracts, in an almost level position, and suitablo con
dition for nlcasant farming that wo know of this side
of the western prairies. Wo found some ol the oldest
farms npparoniiy just as prontaoiy prouueuvo ns
when first cleared uf forest fifty ur a hundred years
ago,
Tho geologist would soon discover tho cnuso of this
continued fertility. Tho wholo country is a marine
domwit. and all through tho soil wc found evidences
nf calcareous substances, generally in tho form of
indurated calcareous marl, snowing many distinct
forma of ancient shells, of the torlin.iv formation : and
this marly substance is scattered all through tho soil
in a verv comminuieii lorrn, anu in ino exact, coimi
tion most easily ussimilated by such pluuts as tho
farmer desires to cultivate.
Marl, in all its forms, lias been used to fertinr.c
crops in F.nglnml, from the time it was occupied by
Uie tlomaiis ; ami in r ranee ami ucrinany n man ucu
is counted on as a valuable bed of manure, that enn
bo dug and carted and spread over the field. How
much more valuable then, it must be, w hen found
already mixed through the soil, w hero new pnrticles
w ill be turned up aim exposed, and iransiormeu to
the owner's use every time be stirs the ourlh.
Having then fatislieil our minds ot llio cause, tney
will not he excited with wonder nt seeing indubitable
evidence ol lertilily iu a soil wlncti in oilier situa
tions, having the same general characteristics or at
least appearances, is entirely unrcmunerative, except
as its productiveness is promoted by ortiliciul fertili
sation.
A few words about the duality and value of this
land lor cuiuvuuou, ui nuicu nu uuig niiuu siruug
proof.
Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Franklin
township, Gloucester county, who purchased some
eight miles north of Millville, about three years ago,
lor ttio purjiose oi estaousning a steam mm, iowoi k
un the timber into lumber, to send oil' by the new
railroad, ns well as the firewood and coal, for which
he built a brunch truck a mile nnd a halt long. Ho
also furnished sixteen miles of tho road w ith ties, und
has no doubt mado the mill profitable, though his
main obiect was to open a furui, having become con
vinced mat tlie soil was vhiuuoio lor cultivation, in
this he has not been disappointed, as soino of bis
crops prove, ror instance, last year, thesecoudtime
uf cropping, 300 bushclsof potatoes on one acre, worth
no cents a busuei in tnc ncm. mis year, seven ucres,
without manuro, produced 36d bushels of oats. In
one field, tho first crop was potatoes, planted among
tho roots, nnd yielded 7j bushels. The iKilutoeswcre
dug and wheat sown, and yielded PJ bushels; and
the stul.blo turned under and sown to buckwheat.
which yielded Ml bushels ; and then Iho ground was
sown to clover nnd timuiny, wuicn gavo us a first crop
21 (..us ncr acre.
Tho fertiliser applied to (bene crops were, fir9t,
nsties from Clearings : second, -Jo ltounds ot super
phosphate uf lime ; third, 200 ouiids Peruvian
guano ; then 60 bushels of slaked lime has been
spread ujsin tlio clover since it wus mowed, uud
turned in for wheat.
Mr. Wilson's growing crops, and tho wheat stuM.lo
of the present season, all indicuto his land us produc
tive as any part oi ine Mule.
At Mary Harrow s, uu old stylo Jersey woman
farmer, severnl miles south of Mr. Wilson's, wo wero
so particularly struck with the tine appearance of a
neld ot com, tout wo slopped lo inquire ot tlie hired
man bow it was pr.nlucod. Wc found that tho land
had been the year but one before in wheut, sown will
clover, nnd this cut one seasuii, and last spring plowed
once, with one '-poor old nag," aud pluulvd with
corn.
"les, but you manured high, wo supposo f ' wo
said interrogatively, and got this reply :
''Wuul, you sec, wo couldn't a done Hint ; cause wa
hadn't but forty one-hosro loads altogether, for 23
acres, aud wo wanted tho most ou t lor the struck
The truck consisted of beets, carrots, cnbbagc, c
cumbers, melons, Ac, and a very productive patch
of Luna beans, grown lor marketing. So wo were
satisfied flint tho sou was not infertile, even unaided
by clover, which hud fedthecorn, because tho "truck
patch" had not been clovered, and had boeu iu cul
tivation lung enough to ublitcruto all signs uf Iho
lurest.
Our next visit was to the farm of Andrew Sharn.
five miles north of Millville, from half to a mile cast
of the railroad, and just about iu the centre of V luo-
larid. Air. Miujp commenced work tioro in Decern
tier, IBM. upon ZiU acres. Iu less than three Venn.
be has got 2'i4 acres cleared and in crops this season,
all well enclosed and divided into several fields, w ith
cedar rail or polo fence : bus built a two story dwell
ing, about '66 by 40 feet, and a smaller house fur farm
laborers, and a Itablu and grunai y and aouio oilier
out-uuiidings.
Considerable part of tho land was cleared for tho
plow at $V an aero, and on some of it tho first crop
was buckwhent, limed with 60 bushels in powder per
acre. This crop may be put in July 4th, to2iih,aiid
yields 20 to Ml bushels per acre, harvested in Noveui
bcr; when the land being sowed with 160 lbs. of
Peruvian guano and seeded with rye, yielded 12 to
15 bushels per aero aud $10 worth of straw. Tborve
Btubble turned, after knocking off a large growth of
ouk sprouts, and dressed again witnguauoaud seeded
to wheut, gavo 15 or 10 bushels. The crop which he
was uircsning wnuo we were mere promised mure,
of a very plump grain, and the straw is verv heavy.
We weut over tho stubblo and found Iho clover
and timothy, from seed sowed last spring, on the wheat,
without harrowing, looking as well as we ever saw it
upon any old cultivated larm, and with a little work
done in ihe winter to clear off some root and rotten
stumps, and setting stakes to mark permanent onos,
he will be able to cut the crop the next year with a
mowiug machine, and we will guarantee two tons per
acre, if he will give the overplus if it overrun the
estimate.
Part of the land was planted with potatoc for a
first crop, which yielded 120 bushels per aero. It
was then limed wilh bo bushels per acre, and seeded
with wheat and clover, yielding an average of over
i a Dusueis per acre, aud uie clover now looks bcauu
ful.
Other portion have boon planted with corn as a
nrst crop, wniun yielded au bushels or yellow flint
Corn, and the second crop 40 bushels, and the third
crop, treated to ISO lbs. of guano, we aro luxe no ono
would estimate uciow iu bushels per acre.
Tho reader will recollect that the writer is now
speaking of land perfectly now, and which can
scarcely be considered iu good arable condition. F.i. )

CuriDj? Hay.
At a recent meeting of the Maine Agri
cultural Society, various subjects were dis
cussed. We copy the following from a re
port of the proceedings :
Mr. Harrows said, iu regard to curing hay,
he thought farmers burnt their hay ttio
much ; li ft it have too much sun. He had
traveled extensively in England, and in the
misty climate of that country, where the sun
was not seen for a number of days in succes
sion, they succeeded in having good hav.
It was cured chiefly iu the cocks, being put
in small bunches. Hay dried too much is
worthless ; the straws should bend, but not
break.
Mr. Clitimberlin said he was sure too much

Not only cucumber and melons are some
times completely devoured, butmjuashi'sun.l
pumpkins share the same fate. Numerous
remedies have been suggested, some of t hem
tedious and not altogether ellicacious. lle
cently we came across the following, which
looks ns though it might be a preventive ;
at least it is uot troublesome or expensive to
try: "Take a small piece of paper, put it
on the ground in the centre of the hill, and
lay a small stone on the corner to keep it
fast ; then put on it two or three pieces of
gum camphor as large as a pea. Kenew lliu
camphor when it is gone." It is asserted to
be a complete remedy.
Whale-oil soap, one pound dissolved in a
bucket of water, causes them suddenly tn

grnjdi. Kkmedt pon Hollow Hunx. Provide
yourself with u dime's worth of ground flax
seed and five cents' worth of saltpetre, and
proceed as follows: Pulverize the saltpetre ;
take one teaspoonful of it, and mix with
three tablespoonsl'ul of ground flax-seed ;
add a handful of corn meal, and us much
water as will wet it into cakes or balls say
four or five. Give this much once every
day, half an hour before feeding, until the
whole is used up. Morning is the best time
lo give it. The meal only gives the cattle a
disposition to eat of its own accord with
force. At the commencement of the opera
tion the tail should be cut oil' only so far up
ns to cuuso it to bleed freely, and then let it
hang in u bucket of luke-wtum water till it
is thoroughly bled out. Now wipe it dry
and tie up iu a rag, so ns not to be injured
by the cold. A cure will be effected as soon
as the above quantity of medicine is used ;
and tho cattle will begin to gain strength
every day, whereas they were before failing
even on generous treatment.
Dry Food fou Hons. A correspondent
of the Country GaitUman says : "Many hogs
are kept comparatively poor by the high
dilution of their food. They take in ao
much water that there is not room for a
good supply of nutriment. Hence the reason
that those farmers who carefully feed undi
luted sour milk to their hogs have so mueli
finer animals than those who give them slop.
The hog has uot room for much water, und
if food w hich contains much is fed to him,
it makes him big bellied, but poor. Hogs,
as well as Ml other animals, shsuld be allow
ed all the water they will drink, but it should
not be mi.xed with their food in excessive
quantity the hog should not bo obliged to
tako more water than he wants, ia order to
get the food he requires.
Salt Your Cattle. Be sure and let
your cattle havo salt in plenty w hen they aro
first turned to grass, otherwise they scour in
excess and fail to thrive on good grass.
Calves hi pens should always huve access la
fresh loam ; this will prevent ecouriug and
