All of the farm land is highly im- proved and very productive. The soil does not clod badly and can be maintained in good tilth with a reasonable expenditure of time and labor. Corn does particularly well, yields of as much as 130 bushels per acre having beeen reported. Wheat averages about 28 bushels. The Pennsylvania Seedleaf variety of tobacco does best, yielding when fertilized from 1,300 to 2,500 pounds. Potatoes, however, have supplemented tobacco to a consider- able extent on this soil as a money crop. They yield from 90 to 200 bushels. Wheat, tobacco and po- tatoes are the principal money crops, the other grain and forage crops being fed on the farms. All the straw is returned to the soil.

They have yellowish brown to brown surfaces and yellowish red or dull red subsoils. The loam is the second most extensive type in | the county, occupying about 20 per cent of the total area. cultivated with little difficulty and | is considered one of the most pro- | ductive soils in the county for | general farm crops. There is little waste land, and this fact, together with the ease of cultivation, makes this type particularly desirable. | Corn yields of as high as 125| bushels per acre occasionally are | | reported and as much as 40 bushels of wheat per acre has been pro-| duced. Clover does well. Some of the most productive tobacco farms also are situated on this soil Peaches give heavy yields of fruit | of good quality, and, if the soil is well inoculated, alfalfa should prove profitable. The Berks soils are found in the northern part of the county border- | ing the limestone valleys. The shale loam is utilized almost entirely for general farming, though dairying is sometimes an important adjunct. The average yields of the staple crops are considerably lower than on the adjoining soils. In cultivating this type, it is said, the furrows and corn rows should follow the con- tours of the hills when practicable in order to check erosion. In the arrangement of fields, sod above and below corn fields on the slopes would prevent erosion to a con- siderable degree also.

The shade was grateful and cool compared with published by Chas. Scribner in 1855 about sixty-one years ago, Ike Marvel or better known in after years as Donald G. Mitchell. This author was one of Mr. War- fel’s favorite, he possessed in his collection of books and clippings every thing that came from his pen. About ten years before Mitchell's death, Mr. Warfel paid the author a visit. I remember Mr. Warfel’s account of that visit and will just recall one incident connected there- with. As Mr. Warfel neared the home of the author of “Dream Life,” he met a man and asked to be directed to the home of Donald G. Mitchel, the writer. The man stopped and hung his head for a mo- house on the hill to the right.” How true the saying “A prophet is with our town is reported.
