Influence Of Sell on Color of Grapes.

Our attention was callel to the DIFF
ference of color, between grapes grown
en- clay soils aud thos, grown
on grayelly Soils fTho,e7on the for
mer we're invariably darker and NOR,
glossy. and would be pronounced or
n judgment rendered by the eye to BE-
richer than those which had beer
grown on gravelly soils which wcr,
lighter in color and less covered Will
bloom. But the saccharomctcr and
ncidomcter reversed these decisions,
ond showed that the richest grape,
were those which were rot grown on
clay soils.
1t seems clear that the season o,
1870 has been more favorable To-
grapes than any year tat has prece.
sdcd it since observations have COM
.lnsnccd. Every kind. save Concords.
have fourished in an unprecedented
manner, and these have only been af
'fcctei in some iSolntc | loralities. We
have reason to believe that the wine
made this year will long be famous for
their delicacy and flavor.
ut seems evident that the exhibi-
tors of grapes should be questioned.

circumstances affecting their growth,

In California and in the Southern
States two crops of potatoes can read
ily be grown in season. provided the
weather at the time of planting the
second crop is not too dry. In the
Northern States it is quite difficult
thing to get two crops. although it is
occasionally done with the very earli-
est sorts. The first crop must be dug
us soon as ripe, and those used for
seed thoroughly dried for a week or
two before planting. This dryinp
