scription Of a grape vine in that
locality, said to be the largest il
the world, planted forty years age
by a Spanish woman: The vine,
four and Il half feet from the
ground, is. one foot in diameter, OF
a little more than three feet
around it; then it bulges out for 9
foot and a half higher, and muel
larger. At that height it branch
es out, and the branches are sup
ported by scaffolding, so that ]
could walk upright under it Will
nv hat on. The branches spread
over an area Of from 1000 to 120t
feet. The annual crop of grape
from this vine averages four tons
and has been as high as six tons
only think Of it, from 5000 to II.
600 pounds of grapes on a singl
vine. 1t looks almost incredible
