o YEARS OLD.
THINNINa AID PRUNINa.

In cultivating the grape Mr.. Milton does
not hesitate TO thin out the punches when
they begin to form, as he sees them become
crowded on the vine, or the berries when
too close together on the bunch. By doing
early in the season he secures larger sized
berries, and by the judicious use of sulphur
blown into the lunches from a pair Of bel
lows, he keeps the grapes free from the
slightest appearance of mildew or the aphis
insect. The vines are pruned in February
of each year, and much care is taken that
while there shall not be too much foliage
left on them, neither should they be left too
bare. The sun should find its way to the
ripening punches, but not too directly.
Care should be taken also in taking off the
leaves, tina t they be not broken off close to
the branch. When this is done the vine is
apt to bleed. The stems should be pinched
off close to the leaf, and then the bit that is
left dries Gp and falls off.
AS the grapes ripen, the mynah birds, with
that.fine appreciation of what is nice in the
way of fruit, make inroades upon the vine
yard, and are only driven off by the presence
of a man with kerosene can which he beats,
and an occasional shot from musket kept
handy for that purpose.
VALUE OF THIS SEASONS CROP.
Mr.. Milton calculates that this years crop
of grapes will be about 5000 pounds, and
there is a good demand for them at forty
cents q pound. At this rate, or even at a
much less price it will be seen that grape
growing on these islands is bound to be q
paying business. Indeed, the fact that all
who have little piece of ground, no matter
how small. can have every year nice supply
of this most healthful and pleasant of fruits,
should induce all to start vine or two.
Grapes from the Milton vineyard will be for
sale at the store of
Il. E. MCINTYRE & BRO.
By the end of next week. The purple clus-
tiers of the delicious Isabella are putting on
the delicate bloom that indicates perfect
ripeness in this choice variety and the
berries of the superb Tokay vine are rapidly
absorbing sunshine and sweetness. Later
in the season the smaller, more compact
Mission grapes will begin to take on the
dusky hue peculiar to them, and the rich
Catawbas reproduce the hues of the autumn
| leaves in their native home in the forests of
ives tern New York.

PIONEER VINEYARD.
Successful Experiment i'm Grape
Growing. by Mr.. Philip Milton.
King street.

BY invitation Of Mr.. Philip Milton,
representa- tive Of the PACIFIC COMMERCIAL
ADVERTISER visited that gentleman's place
on King street yesterday, and was shown
over the fine vineyard that within the past
four years Mr.. Milton has planted. The
site upon which the vines are growing is,
like the rest Of the lots in that part Of the
city, quite level, the soil being almost en-
tirely black volcanic sand and light yellow
earth. The drainage is good, and Mr.. Mil
ton has, very wisely, dug large pits, into
which is thrown all the debris that accumu|
lates, such as dead leaves, sweepings Of the
pathways, and from the stables in the rear
Of the dwelling. When this material accu-
mulates in any quantity, all that viii burn
is thus consumed and the pit filed up.
PREPARING THE GROUND AND PLANTING.
The whole ground where the grape vines
were to be planted was first deeply trenched,
and then enriched in the manner indicated.
These trenches are about four feet wide,
and as long as the locality where they are
dug would allow. The ground being ready,
the vines were set out about ten feet apart
in the rows, and the same distance from
now growing, including the Muscatel,
Tokay, Isabella, Catawba, and the Mission
grape. In 81! there are about 100 vines,
covering half acre of ground, and just now
loaded with fine lunches of grapes, many of
which about ripe. As previously stated,
the oldest Of the vines have been planted
about four years, and the youngest in bear
ing are
LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD.
OF the older ones the trunks of the maj or
ity are about two and half inches in diam
eter though there some nearer four. Mr..
Milton states that he finds that the vines
planted near the place where his horses
stand while they are being washed down are
most vigorous. The framework on which
the vines are supported is built of by
timber, and is about seven feet high. The
posts are about ten feet apart and being
placed on stones, they will last for long
time. The whole cost of the framework was
about 81, 500, and all the posts being sup
ported on stones, clear of the ground the
repairs will be but small for the next twenty
years.
