Tho soil is loam, varying from sandy to clavev. and surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wet meadows in which deposts of peat or muck are stored, sullicicnt to fcrtili.o the whole upland sur face, alter it has been exhausted of its natural fertility. It is certainly ono of tho most extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farm ing, that we know of this side of the West ern prairies. We found some of tho old est farms apparently just as profitably productive as when first cleared of forest lifty or a hundred years ago. The goologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. The wholo oouutry is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we tbund evidences of calcareous substances, generally in the form of indurated calcaiwius marl, show ing many distinct forms of ancient shells, vi tho tertiary foimation ; and this marly substauce is scattered all through tho soii, iua very comminuted form, and in the exafit condition mot-t easily issimniilatod by such plants as tbe farm r desires to cul'jvnti. rra m'UKCKlBKfortbe Forest Republican JOB WORK DON 15 AT THE 'REPUBLICAN" OFFICE At he lowest cash prices, neatly, prompt ly, and in style equal to that of any other etablitthment in the District. w.- BUSINESS CARDS, SHOW CARDS, VISITING CARDS, v' SCHOOL CARDS WEDDING CARDS, PROGRAMMES, INVITATIONS, BALL TICKETS, ADMISSION TICKETS, ENVELOPES BILL HEADS, LETTER HEADS, NOTE HEADS, ' CIRCULARS, BLANKS, POSTERb DODGERS.
