The soil is loam varying from sandy to clayey, and surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wt lnoodows which deposts of peat or muck are stored sutlk-ient to fertilize the wlioleuplmid wur face, after it has bcen exhausted of'ita natural fertility. It Is certainly one of the most extensiv fertile tracts, in an almost level position ana suitable condition lor pleasant farm ing, that wo know of this side of the Went em prairies. Wo found some of the old est farms apparently just as profitably productive as when first cleared of forest hfty r a hnndred years ago. fUe geologist would stMia discover tho cause of this continued fertility. Tho whole country ia a marine deposit, and all tnrougn me nou we found evidences calcareous substances, generally in tho form of indurated calcareous marl, show, ing many distinct forms of ancient shells of the tertiary formation ; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil. in a very comminuted form, and in the exact condition most easily asisinimthited by such plants as tho faritur desires cul'jvate. tai to JOB WORK POUR AT TUB 'REPUBLICAN" OFFICE At t lowest oath prictt, neniy, prompt ly, and-in, tlyU - equal to thai of any ' i -; cther fitUihlishmml in lAe Didrid.
