SANTA CLARA COUNTY. 



Paul Masson, San Jose. 



Zinfandel on Rupestris St. George, 6 years old, satisfactory, good 

 unions, healthy looking, but do not bear abundantly. 



Burger on Rupestris St. George, 4 to 7 years old, field grafted; bad. 

 Poor success from beginning, many dying every year, apparently 

 from poor unions and lack of affinity. Same results on sandy, deep, 

 rich gravelly and rich loamy soils. 



Carignane and Pinot, 11 years old, planted on special soil, are 

 doing well. 



"I have quite a few acres of 11-year-old vines grafted on Rupestris 

 St. George, including the following varieties: Carignane Mondeuse, 

 Alicante. Bouschet, Aramon, Grand Noir, Durif, Grenache, Pinot, 

 Semillon, Sauvignon vert, Folle blanche, Colombar, Pinot blanc. These 

 are all doing very well, and, if anything, more vigorous and prolific 

 than ungrafted vines of the same age. Carignane and Grenache, 12 

 years old on St. George, have never failed to give a large crop, and 

 Aramon also seems very prolific. ' ' 



Mataro (grafted) is not very satisfactory; it bears heavily, but 

 many die during the hot summer.
