and the phosphate bearing rocks. The soils of these 

 towns, especially of Salisbury and Sharon, once produced 

 fine crops of wheat and are still noted for producing 

 luxuriant fields of oats and corn and hay. Clover

 hills or the sandy soils of the valleys, and alfalfa has 

 also been grown with considerable success in these lime- 

 stone sections.
