A Talk About Grapes.

At meeting of the New York Fruit
Growers Club, the principal matter dis
cussed was the pruning of grape vines,
by A. s. Fuller, with examples. With
a yearling vine he showed how to clip
the roots to prepare them for planting,
leaving none over fifteen or eighteen
inches, because il is important to get
fibrous roots started near the main
trunk. In planting, if in Autumn, set
the roots about four inches deep, leav-
ing the cane foot or two long, which
should be cut away In spring level with
the earth. Grow but one cane the
first year, which-of strong growing
sorts-will reach ten feet in length
Cut this cane down to four eyes in No
vember, and allow the two lower ones
to grow next spring, and train them up
right. These two canes are TO be cut
back in November to about five feet,
and next spring are to be bent down IN
opposite directions, and each shorten
ed to four feet and tied to stakes or
wires or Stats of trelhs, to grow fruit
bearing canes. Plants being set just
eight feet apart, the ends of the arms from
cash will meet and fill all the space. If
the vines are of the short jointed varie-
ties, every other bud may grow, and
every one upon long joints, thus giving
five or six uprights to each arm. The
third year from planting, each upright
may ripen two punches, say twenty-four
punches to vine. Next March cut
back each upright to two buds and
grow two canes, Afterwards cut the
upper one of these two. and so on of
others, entirely away, and cut back the
lower two buds, which are to grow two
canes. This keeps the bearing wood
down to a low head, the arms being
trained to any height desired. -3asq
A well established vine viii produce
80 to rs buches year upon trellis
only four feet high, which allows rows
to be set six feet apart or nearer upon
very valuable land Some prefer arms
three feet long and two tier trellis.
