UNDER
GLASS

Consul General Roosevelt, writing
from Brussels tells OF the development
OF the hothouse grape Industry and the
extension Of hothouse cultivation 20
other fruits and vegetables, lie re-.
p0Ftsi
"Ahout forty years ago the cultiya-
tion OF grapes under glass was pTae'
tieed on a small scale at Hoeylaert a
village near Brussels, more as an eN
perimental venture than as a business
enterprise. From the beginning the eX-
pertinent was accompanied by success,
and from It's small origin this method
0f cultivation rapidly developed until
il now ranks as one Of the most flour
ishing and lucrative industries Ia this
district. Today there are no less than
10000 hothouses in tho immediate vi
oinity Of Brussels.
Tho lighthouses are usually from 65 70
So feet ia length, and about 20 feet iu
width Heat is distributed through
clay pipes
The principal varieties Of grapes are
Frankenthal, blue, medium sized
grape Of fine flavor and very juicy;
hg Colman, an imense purple grape Of
attractive appearance, somewhat too
solid and lacking in juice, and the
black Alicante and Queen Victoria,
both acceptable as 10 quality and fla
vor. These grapes are SOLD on the
Belgian retail markets all the year
round at prices varying with the sea
sons, from about rs cents 10 81 per
pound In the past few years the eul-
tivation of peaches, in connection with
grapes, has also become quite profit
able, and, although stin practieed on
limited scale, has produced excellent
results. the yield being first class in
every respect.
The cultivation Of Strawberries, to-
matoes, spinach, lettuce, asparagus, and
ehieory under glass is also carried on
IN this district by syndicates, which
regulate production as we'll as prices
Grapes grown in this consular district
are exported largely TO England, Ger
many Russia and Denmark, aud oeca-
sionally in small quantities to the
United States.
