Report of Solon Robinson,
OF TRE NEW YORK TRIBUNE, UPON TRT.
VINELAND SETTLEMENT.
r(R&-. The following is an extract from the report
of Solon Robinson, Esq., published in the New York
Tribune. in reference to Vineland. All persons eau
re-.d this report with interest.
Advantages of Farming near Home—Vineland—Re
marks upon Marl—Soil. its great. Fertility—The
Cause of Fertility—Amount of Crops Produced—
Practical Evidence.
It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile tracts. ,
in an almost level position, and suitable condition for
pleasant jarminy that we know of thin side of the west,
ern prairies. We found some of the oldest farms appar
endy just as profitable productive as when first cleared
of forest' filly or a hundred years ago.
The geologist woulg soon discover th e cause of this
continued fertility. The whole country is a marine
deposit, and all through the soil ice found evidences
of calcareous sultstanees; generally in the form of
indurated calcareous 'marl,. showing 'Many distinct
forms of ancient shells', cif the tertiary formation
and this ruarly substance is scattered all through the
soil, in a very comminuted form, and ili the exact
condition most easily assimilated by such plasanis •
the farmer desires to mittivate:'
Marl, in all its forms, has been , Used• to fertilize
crops in England. from the time it was occupied by
the Romans; and in France and Sernmny a marl
bed is counted on as it valuable bed of manure, that
can be dug and carted anti spvead over• the
Bow much more valuable, then it must he, when found
already mixed through the soil, where new particles Wilt
be turned up and exposed, and tratitfOrined to the owner's
use every time he stirs the earth.
Raving then satisfied our minds of the CRUM they
will not be excited with wonder at !teeing indubitable
evidence of fertility in a soil which in other aline
tions, having the same general Chanel eristics or at
least Appe4r4, is,entirelynnrenumerative except
as its produCtiyeneas is promoted by artificial fertil
ization.
few wordsabowt the tputlity anal value of this
caner e4ltivation, of which we have; male strong
proof.
Our first vjoit w.aste 'William D. Vilson, Franklin

eight miles north of about three yearsago,
for the pirrpoSe of establishing. a steam mill, to - work
up the timber into lumber, to send off by she .new
railroad, as well as the firewood and, coal, for which
he built a branch track a mile and a half long. lie
also furnished sixteen miles of 'the road with ties,
and has no doubt made the mill profitable, though
his main object was to _open a farm, having become
convinced that: .the soil wmvaluahlefor.cultivation.
In this hp has not - been distippointed, as some of his
Crops prove. For instance, last- Year, the second
tinie of 'cropping, 306 bushelS 'of potatoes on 'one
acre, worth 60 cents'a bushel in'the field. This year
seven acres, without manure. produced 356 bushels
of oats. In one field, the first crop was potatoes,
planted among the roots, and yielded. 75 bushels.—
The potatoeS Were dug, and wheat sewn, and yield
ed 16.bUslielS ; and the stubble turned under and

which gave, :first. crop 21 tons per acre:
The .fertiliierS'aprilled to these Crops were fret,
