This vineyard is planted to red wine varieties. Judge Stanly was probably the first 

 person to introduce resistant vines into this county, 'in 1882. He planted them against 

 the judgment of many vineyardists. They have succeeded well. "The only vine I 

 think absolutely resistant is Riparia. I am well satisfied with my resistants. I 

 would never plant anything else. Since I planted my first resistants, within three 

 miles of my vineyard, 500 acres have been planted to vines and eaten up by phyllox- 

 era. My vineyard is nourishing. Grafts should not be put in deep; quite near the sur- 

 face is best. Hill up about grafts in October. Many grafts have failed because put in 

 too deep." This vineyard demonstrates the adaptability of Riparia to our vineyards as 

 a resistant.
