The attention of farmers and fruit growers is called to a new 

 work on Grape Growing, by the above title, which has attracted 

 the attention of horticulturists all over the Union. It is pro- 

 nounced one of the most practical treatises upon the subject ever 

 written. This manual has been very carefully compiled from a 

 series of lectures upon the subject, dictated by an experience of 

 over forty years in Europe and America. This fact alone will 

 commend it to all, and even the most successful viniculturist 

 will find it stored with new and useful facts. Its author has 

 made grape culture a life study, and only cites facts from his 

 personal knowledge. He is not a "dry as dust" theorist, but 

 works his own vineyard after the Single Pole System to the let- 

 ter and leaf. 



It is extremely simple, and contains no scientific or botanical 

 terms. It is so plain that any man can read this book at home, 

 and successfully raise grapes with no attendant expense what- 

 ever. With this book, a spade and a jack-knife, any person 

 owning an acre of land may begin a remunerative business. 

 The Agricultural editor of the loxva State Register says this work 

 is " worth all the guides to Grape Growing he has ever seen." 

 Agents wanted. A specimen copy of this complete manual on 

 grape growing will be sent to any address, prepaid for 50 cents.
