the production of fruit or as stocks
on which to graft susceptible Euro
pean and American varieties has
practically supplanted all other meas
ures against phylloxera in most OF
the infested vineyards OF the world
The immunity to root attack Of Amer
ian vines seems to be due 10 the
thicker and deeper bark covering OF
the roots and to greater natural Wig

sistant. and no vines are wholly inn

varieties OF this species commonly
grown and used for stocks are Herbe-

The wild varieties Of Riparia are
quite resistant to the root louise, al

valuable as a source OF resistant

fAce of the vineyard inserting the
implement from to Il inches and
not approaching within one foot of
the base of the vine The opening
in the soil must be promptly closed
with the foot A large number Of
small doses is preferable to a few
large ones This treatment will or.
dinarily have to be repeated every
year or two. and is therefore expen-
sive and unsatisfactory and not to be
recommended except where other
means are not available.
SUBMISSION - Next to the use
Of resistant stocks. by far the best
means against the phylloxera is in
inundating vineyards at certain sea-
sons Of the year and for definite PEE
RODS, being applicable wherever ir-
rigation IS praeticed or water may be
applied without too grtat expense.
Sg.bmerging as a means against I'M
seets is very ancient practice In
southern Russia and in Greece, but
was first used az inst phylloxera in
1868. in France, and is now practiced
wherever feasible The best results
are obtained in soils which water
will penetrate rather slowly. In loose
and sandy soils immersion is inn
practicable. For this treatment vine
yards are commonly divided into rec
tangular plats by entertainments Of
earth, the latter protected from Gro
sion by planting to some forage crop.
As now practiced the vines are in
undated shortly after the fruit is gath
cred when growth of the vines has
ceased. but the phylloxtra is stil in
full activity and much more readily
destroyed than during the dormant
winter season The earlier the appli-

of forty TO sixty days will be need
ed. Copious fortyeight hours, will
give very considerable relief from
phylloxera.
PLANTING IN SAND - 1t was
early observed that vines in very
sandy soil were little subject to phyl-
loxera injury, probably owing to the
fact that the sand does not crack and
allow the insects DO escape and
spread, being more thoroughly wet
ted with rains and subterranean mois-
ture, ana the insect is drowned out
as in submergence The resistance is
to the percentages OF
sand in the soil In France vineyards
are very successful yestablished on
