Editor Florida Agriculturist:

Please inform me if Scuppernong grape vines
need pruning, and if SO. how much they should be
cut back. I have three vines two of which bear
some fruit, the other and by far the most thrifty
blooms very full but does not retain any of it's
fruit. What treatment does it need? J. M. G.
The Wits vulpina family does not re-
quire any pruning like other grapes, but
nevertheless they are benefited by being
thinned out so that the vines will not
crowd and overlap each other too much.
This pruning should always be done be-
fore the sap starts or the vines will
"bleed to DEATH" Your non-bearing
vine may be male and no culture will
make it yield fruit. Scuppernong vines
RESP ond to liberal use of fertilizers as
well as any other variety. With cur
vines it made difference-of so per cent
in the amount of fruit and the fruit
from one-fourth to one-half larger.

vaults. The very bankers who pretend to agree with such quacks as Professor Taussig know that idle capital lying in bank vaults is evidence not of an over supply of currency but of the ina bi!ity of the people to make profits out of business enterprises.
 The authorities concur in the opin- ion that the absolutely infailible test of superabundanc of money is an ab- normal rise of the prices of commodi ties. Without ignoring this, the in exorable and only test, the professor" who met with such enthusiastic en- dorsement at the hands of the Boston 'financiers" will have some difficulty in sustaining the contention that too much money is the cause of business depression now existing in the United States. When eggs are in excessive supply the price must fall There is not a commission house which has not been convinced, but very recently, of the soundness of this position. For the very same reason, when money is in excessive supply the price of money must fall; that is to say, smaller amount of stuff will be required to buy a dollar Tn other words, the quan- tity theory of money is invulnera5le to assault. Scarcity of money causes low prices of commodities. Imitation causes high prices Abnormally low prices indicate an insufficient supply of money-aDn ormally high prices are produced by supera!bundance.
 If the professor who has just capti- vated the Boston ''financiers" by a lengthy argument intended to prove that what the country needs is the contraction of the currency has never 
 heard of this axiom of finance, he could vastly improve his stock of knowledge by scraping up an acquaint- ance with some well-informed farmer or blacksmith, either of, whom would have no difficulty in imparting to the "professor" the first lessons of much needed liberal education.
 In Boston Professor Taussig may pass for person of wonderful learn ing, but it will require a revision of all the authorities to reconcile his views ! with axoms generally recognized as impregnable.

PHGNIx, TERTIARY 1s. 1886.
TYPICAL GoIIDBUG PROFESSOR.

Tn the opinion of the Bostonese leading authority on political and eco homie questions is Professor Taussig. The professor delivered an address in Boston last week, and of course the discourse was accepted as law and gos- pei. It was Professor Taussig who spoke and to- the company of well groomed, well feds-ibankers and corpo- ration managers who were a majority of his audience, every word was swal- 1uwed without thought of independent investigation. Professor Taussig con- tends that the country is suffering from an excessive supply of money, and that until greenibacks and silver dollars are withdrawn from circulation no remedy will Joe found. This state ment was accepted by a Boston audi ence at a time when merchants and traders all over the country are ex- periencing unusual difficulty in making collections, and when western country bankers are at their wits'x end for a sufficient amount of currency to meet the pressing necessities of cattle grow CTS and feeders and the grain buyers through whomg gthe western crops are placed on the market. And, mark you, it was @ college professor who ex- pressed the opinion and the company of Boston 'sfnanciers'' who concurred in it.
 The low rate O. interest charged by the banks of New England and througout the east was the only fact cited in support of the professors de- mand for contraction of currency, sbut when it is added that he clinched his argument by insisting that with a reduction in the volume of money the interest rate should advance, the read iness of his audience to accept conclu- sions resting upon premises so fraf is easily understood. The answer to- the allegation that in the eastern cities abauk interest rates are low and that this indicates superabundance of mon ey is that the people of the great agri- cultural states do not do business at these banks, and that over one-half the people of this country are neither depositors nor borrowers of the banks. Furthermore bank credit is not money. The farmer patrons of western banks are at this time unable to obtain need ed accommodations. But even if bor- rowing rates for actual money were very low, that would prove nothing in behalf of Professor Taussigs proposi- tion. In times of depression the ces- sation of industrial activity leaves the tools usually employed in commerce the manufactures and the mines un- employed Idle laIborers account fo1 the non-use of the tools employed by the laborers when at work. Money is 8 tool When the factories, mines and building trades are inactive, the men and the money used in their op- .eration are thrown out of employment This was strongly shown in the un- precedented increase in the reserves o1 the English banks during lS92-9-4-5 accompanied by low rates of interes
 and little. demand for the large sums of idle capital stored away in the banl
