Table Cranes.

There is great difference between fully ripe
grape and one that has the appearance of being
ripe. As general thing, grapes are plucked too
soon. The punches should hang on the vines I'M
til the stems have begun to shrink. Then the
juices have become saccharine, and whatever pecu-
liar flavor the grape may possess may be fully de-
veloped There is a serious difficulty however, in
the way fully ripe grape has so many lovers,
beyond the bped family, that it is difficult mat
ter to preserve them on the vine. They seem to
be the natural food Of birds, and then the bugs,
and wasps, and ants, and everything else that
crawl, or creep, or fly will feed upon perfectly
ripe grape. Hence the advantages of grape houses,
but in the absence of houses, bags may be made of
cheap gauze, or thin brown paper, and the punches
slipped in. The bunch should be apparently ripe
when put in. In this way they will ripen perfect
ly, and keep longer on the vine than any other
way. Those who would enjoy the luxury of per-
feetly ripe grapes will be we'll repaid for the
trouble of bagging the bunches.-COtiOn Plant.
