YIKE-GEOWINa IN A NUTSHELL. 



NoTWiTHSTANDiNCr all that has been writ- 

 ten on this subject, vine-growing may be 

 said to be comprised in a nutshell. The 

 three following points form the root and 

 branch of the whole matter: — 1. The tex- 

 ture of the border should be such as not to 

 injure by decomposition or otherwise the 

 fibrous roots which tenant it ; whilst the 

 materials of which it is composed should be 

 of tlie most permanently nutritious charac- 

 ter. As much foliage should be allowed as 

 can be well exposed to light. 3. There 

 should be a constant circulation of air night 

 and day, winter and summer, in proportion 

 to the season and the requirements of the 

 plants. It will at once be seen that vines 

 thus treated must have j^lenty of good fi- 



brous roots, and sound, healthy, well-ripened, 

 wood. This is the point at which every 

 gardener should aim. He may rest assured 

 that if he can secure healthy vigorous vines 

 they will not fail to reward him with abun- 

 dance of first-rate fruit. A most successful 

 grower in my neighbourhood acts upon the 

 following maxim:—'- Upon the free, healthy 

 growth of the vine this year depends the 

 supply of grapes next season." The late 

 uupropitious weather has incontestibly 

 proved the soundness of the practice. The 

 vines are remarkably strong and healthy, 

 and both Muscats and Haraburghs have 

 ripened and coloured splendidly, — Garcl.

A FAILURE IN TIFEANT. 



Knowing that your recommendations of 

 tiffany were made in perfect good faith, 

 and supposing that you sufficiently knew 

 your correspondents, I erected a tiflany- 

 house according to your directions last 

 autumn. It was twenty-one feet by twelve, 

 a lean-to, ten feet high in the middle of the 

 slope, covered and sided with tlie best sort 

 of Shaw's Tiff'any, and boarded to the 

 height of three feet from the ground. I 

 wish to give my testimony that it proves 



an utter failure, absolutely worthless for 

 the keeping out of frost. Of course frosts 

 so severe as those of this winter would 

 penetrate any structure, but that is not the 

 point, the titjamj will not keep out any frost. 



1 have constantly tested the tempera- 

 ture, having a thermometer hung outside 

 and one inside the house, and I find that 

 the temperature within is never more than 

 from half a degree to a degree higher than 

 that without. No doubt, when a night
