MAKE SUCCESS WITH GRAPES
Ground Must Be Ready and Plants on

(By H. H. sHEPARD.)

10y II. n. AkSD.J
Last spring we set cut new Vine
yard. This young vineyard con-
sisted Of $50 vines, and is now,
the first year after planting, in
the best Of condition. The vines this
spring produced an average Of about
a dozen blossom clusters to the vine.
They were allowed to develop for
a few weeks, and then all but two
clusters to the vine were removed, to
prevent early fruiting from dwarfng
the plants.
The clusters OF grapes allowed to
remain on the vines are now nearly
mature and are large and perfect In
every way.
Our young vineyard was set out late
in March Of last year. Holes about
Is inches deep by 80 inches in diam
eter were dug and the young plants
set in them before the buds had begun

The spring OF the year is as good
a time as any. for setting out grapes.
but the ground must be ready and the
plants on hand for early setting, as
some are apt to die with late setting.
This Is true Of all small and large
fruits as we'll as ornamentals.

New York, Sept. 5.-A riot aboard
the German steamer Bluecher, at

Brazil, in which three of the Bluechers
crew and fifty Of its 500 steerage pas

Americans aboard the Brazilian
steamer Sac Paulo upon its arrival
here Thursday from Brazilian ports,
whence it sailed at the commencement
of the European war.
The Bluecher was bound from

Pernambuco was reached the steerage

refusal of the Bluecher's officers to 90

According to the story told to the
Sac Paulo's commander, Captain Cyro
Della AMIGO, the trouble began with
an anti-German demonstration by
Spanish and Portuguese against the
Bluecher's crew. This was resented,
and the ships butler, a German. at

and other German members Of the
crew seized arms and began firing.
A fearful hand-to-hand fight ensued.
The captain of the Bluecher sum-

fired right and left. Many OF the
rioters jumped overheard and were
drowned. The police did not thor

The photographers showed their dis

Such law, which would prevent all

MRS. COCKTAILS HELD AS spy.
Authorities Apologize When They
Learn Captive's Identity.

Washington, Sept. 3.-With the re-
turn to Washington of American naval
officers who were in France at the
time of the outbreak of the war, it
became known that Mrs. George w.
Goethals, wife of Governor Goethals Of
the Panama Canal Zone, was arrested
at Vile Franche as a German spy
shortly after the war began. Mrs.
Goethals Is of German descent and
speaks the language fluently. She
had some difficulty proving her iden-
tity, but finally produced her marriage
certificate. When the French officers
learned she was the wife of the build
er of the Panama canal. they could
not apologize sufficiently, and her re-
lease was ordered Immediately.

way of getting the plants set early
when they are in perfectly dormant
condition.
It Is not a safe plan to set out any
vines, bushes or trees, after the buds
have begun to SVEN or the leaves out.
Wherever possible, set in the fall and
be sure Of good stand.
AS rule grapes and other small
fruits are set too close together. Rows
five or six feet apart is the average
but this is too close.
Grapes must be cultivated, fer.
tilted, cared for in general, and the
fruit picked. With narrow rows, Gull
tivation and fertilization are difficult
and unsatisfactory.
If the vines must be hoed and the
earth among the vines dug up with
a spade or mattock, there Is little prof
it in the crop. The roots of the vines
after a third or fourth year, reach
down and out in the soil for many
feet, and with vines close together
and rows only five or six feet apart,
the roots must struggle with each 9TH
er for moisture and plant food.
We set out our young vineyard with
plants eight feet apart In the row
and rows eight feet apart. The dis
lance apart for the rows allows for
the use of two-horse tools, and hence
makes cultivation easier.
Last spring and summer we culti-
waited the young grapes with two
horse cultivator, with three shovels
to the gang. Between the rows pota-
toes were grown. This year melons
are grown between the grape rows. as
they extract small amounts of mots-
ture and foods from the soil.
This spring before new vining be-
gan we cultivated the grapes three
times with the two-horse cultivator.
AS soon as heavy growth began, the
vines were staked, the ground be-
tween rows heavily disked with two
horse disk, and melons planted late.
Subsequent cultivation Of the mel
ons and grapes has been given with a
one-horse double-shoveled cultivator,
smoothing with 14-toothed one-horse
harrow.
BY frequent cultivation with small
shoveled cultivators, we have been
able to conserve sufficient soil mots-
ture for good growth during very dry
conditions and intense heat Of June
and the first half Of July.
We are now firmly convinced that
eight feet apart for grape VOWS Is
none too much. All fruits are apt to
suffer for moisture at maturity Of the
fruit. iust when they need 1t most.
By having the rows wide apart one
can 20 through them with team and
harrow or disk in dry times and stir
the soil for creating a surface mulch
for holding moisture.
Where the rows are close together,
the best cultivation is not possible, as
there Is danger Of injuring the vines
and fruit. Wide rows admit of team
cultivation for saving time, 1t makes
the hauling of manure for the vine
yard easy, and wagon can be hauled
between rows for distributing posts
or for gathering the fruit.
AS with all crops, we believe that
frequent cultivation and stirring and
mixing the soil during the growing
season are the essentials for success.
We expect to cultivate ours every
year up. to the time the fruit 10 ripe.
and never allow the sou to become
hard and dry.

Bought Dread
nought with Arrear
Salary Money.

London, Jan. 2.-The purchase by
Turkey of the Brazilian Dreadnought
Rio De Janeiro, with money raised in
France, it is said, ostensibly to pay
the arrears in the salaries of Turkish
officials, has perturbed not only Greece,
but Europe in general Such a simple
method Of disturbing the balance of
naval power, it is held in diplomatic
circles calls for some agreement among
nations to prevent sales like that of
the Dreadnought. AS the first step In
this direction some diplomats believe, a
demand should be made that both Eng
land and France close their markets to
Turkish loans allegedly raised in or
der to make war on Greece.
Greece, it is said, is herself trying
to purchase the Rio De Janeiro, but
was unable to raise the money. She
is now believed to be negotiating for
other vessels. According to the off,
cial Greek view of the situation, Greece
takes comfort in the fact that 1t will
be another six months before the Rio
De Janeiro is ready for service, when
it is expected Turkey will endeavor to
recapture her lost Aegean islands.

The mercury took another slide

sometimes the case the mercurial
column continued to fall until at 8
O'Clock by the same thermometer it
had dropped two degrees. At other
places along the street at the same

two to eight degrees below zero. The
coldest reported was 10 degrees below
zero, at the home of Arthur Percival
on the Belgrade road.
The temperature was slow in re-

fore and at the noon hour Thursday
showed but IL degrees above the zero
mark. 1t did not hold to that point
long before 1t began to fall again, and
by 2 o'clock it had fallen to nine de-
grees above zero. Slowly it continued
to fall until sunset, and after the pass
ing Of that slight influence of heat the
fall was more rapid. AT 6 o'clock it
had fallen to a scant three degrees
above zero. AT 10 o'clock it had fallen
to one degree below zero and was still
falling
