for the purposeuf•-establialting a steam mill, to work
up the timber into lumbeo to send off by the new
railroad, as well as the firewOod and coal, for which
he built a branch track s-mile and a half -long. le
also furnished sixteen miles of the road with ties,
and has no doubt made the mill profitable, though
his main object!was te ., open - ayarm i thaving become
,convinced thatthe soil was valuable for Cultivation.
In this:he has not been Aisappbinted, as some of his
crop§ prove. For instance; last year. the -second
time of cropping, 30G bushels 'of potatoes on one
acre, worth 00 cents a bushel in the field. This year
seven acres, withont.ntitnure: 'Produced 350 bushels
of 404§.- the, first crop was potatoes,
