How to Plant and Cultivate Grape
Vines.

So many impractical and useless %instruc-
tons have heretofore been given by anna
tours in the art of planting grape vines, that
many persons have been deferred altogether
from planting this delicious and healthful
fruit:
We affirm that the art Of planting and
cultivating grape vines is as simple as grow.
ing corn, cotton or cane, and that any good
dry soil suitable for these crops will produce
good grapes. Therefore We would advise
all who are unacquainted with the vine, to
use a little common sense and reason, throw
away all whims and superstition, forget that
they have ever heard or read anything on
the subject, and 60 to work as follows:
First, bed Up your land the same as for
sugar cane, with rows eight feet apart
make the beds mellow all through, if you
can for that will give you less work in
planting. Dig the holes eight feet apart in
the rows, and from eight TO twelve inches
deep according to the size of the vine you
wish to plant, and large enough to receive
all the roots in their natural position. Then
set in your vine, with the stem straight up,
and throw in the finest and best soil among
the roots and when all the dirt is filled in,
pack it down gently with the foot
Next, ifyour vines are one year old, cut
them offrom one to two feet from the ground
according to size, (large ones should be cut
longer than short ones and set a good stake
six feet long at each vine, and tie it up with
a string.
Now, cultivate well and often. Most of
the work should be done with the plow,
turning the dirt towards the vine, and the
middles should be plowed out each time.
Pillow shallow, or the bed will be too high
before the end Of the season. If the cult
vation has been good up to the first Of Au-
gust nothing more need be done during the
summer.
If any vines have a tendency to produce
fruit the first season pinch off the flowers as
the growth of the vine will be retarded one
hall, by the production of one bunch of
grapes, and that bunch will be worthless.
The motto is, get vines first and grapes
| afterwards.
Good vines that suit this climate, planted
as above: will produce the second season
after planting.

CHANGE IN OFr1cE.-From oversight,
we" heretofore omitted to mention that
Major l.. C. Allison had retired from The
office of Collector Of Interns' Revenue, and
e. P. Goodwin has been appointed as his
successor in office. Major Allison, during
a %sojourn of over two years in this depart
ment, has many friends by his courteous,
conservative and just conduct, and his re
tirement is regretted by all. Mr.. Goodwi2,
his successor, is a gentleman we'll and ia
vorably known throughout Attakapas, as
he has been residing in the parish Of Lafa-
yette for several years.-[New iberia Sugar
