 many foreign trees; for, as a general principle, 

 trees and plants flourished better ou the soil of 

 theirorlgln than they did in localities foreign to 

 them. Col, W. reconmieoded raising seedlings, as 

 on them we would ultimately have our surest de- 

 pendence Tor good, reliable fruit trees. We had, 

 doubtless, a number of fine fruits already native

perienoe in this latitude, 1 prone in November, 

 pat the tinea down Ed a horizontal position, »hen 

 a few thovclsful of earth is all that is needed to keep 

 them down, as the snow generally does that etlect- 

 ually. About the first of May the buds will be 

 pushing briskly and uniformly ail over the vines, 

 they should then be taken up, and tied with care 

 to a wire trellis in such & manner a» to give the 

 viae all (he room that the trellis will admit ol. 1 

 find the wire trellis the best adapted to the wants 

 of the vine, as the wires arc just the thing for the 

 vine to cling to, which it does effectually. About 

 the 1st of July the berries and clusters will be 

 large enough to thin out the superfluous shoots and 

 branches, nud it is not uncommon to see from two 

 three fruit-hearing branches start from a bud. 

 The weaker ones should be broken off about two 

 :hes from where they arc united to the vine, 

 fing only on* fruit-bearing branrh qI a plait, 

 d none should ho allowed to ripen morn than 

 three clusters. 



The bearing shoots or branches will generally 

 sustain themselves without any support except 

 from the vine, nnd need not be stopped or broken 

 off, ns is sometimes recommended. Nothing more 

 is needed to ensure a good crop of grapes, but to 

 work the ground enough to keep down the weeds 

 and grass. 



I commenced planting the grape for marketing 

 about the year 1S47, ond have made annual addi- 

 tions to my vineyard, until now I have about four 

 acres occupied mostly with grapes. The most of 

 the Tines produce annual crops of good grapes, 

 which sold in the New York market last fall at 

 prices sufficiently high to uetl me $1C0 per tun.— 

 Perhaps you will say that 6 cents per pound is a 

 small price compared with what some of your 

 western grape growers sold theirs for,— but 1 wish 

 to have it expressly understood, that I pick and 

 send the grapes to market directly from the vine- 

 yard, in boxes which contain about twenty-five 

 pounds, and that s cents is the average price, in- 

 cluding both first and second quality. You will 

 observe that we run no risk iu having any of them 

 spoil on our bunds; neither do we lose any by 

 assorting aud storing, as those who practice that 

 method, as a natural consequence must lose quite 

 a percentage. 



September 10th commenced picking the Isabellas, 

 and sent to market three times a week, for about 

 three weeks, which closed the season for that 

 variety. October 1st commenced picking and 

 sending Catawba* to market, nud continued to pick 

 and send the same as Isabtllas up to October 2uth, 

 when we bud the first frost sufficiently hard to 

 injure grapes. The Valley of the Hudson seems 

 to be admirably adapted to the grape, both in its 

 fine soil, and peculiiu exemption limn late spring

The leafstalk and the veins of the leaf are tubes, 

 niilar to the woody parts of the tree, and inside 

 of these tubes is a pith similar to the pith in the 

 branches, and conneete.1 with it. The upper aud 

 lower surfaces of the leaves are furnished with 

 pores. The pores on the under surface ure 

 the largest and these are the ones principally em- 

 ployed in absorbing from the atmosphere, while 

 those on the upper surface are supposed to be 

 priucipal'y employed in txhaling. It is the mois- 

 cxhaled from the leaves that causes a plant or 

 brunch to wilt when kept in a warm room, while 

 fibsorbini: power of tin' leaves enables the plant 

 ecover when spriukled with water. A field of 

 \ wilted in a hot day will revive iu an hour 

 under the refreshing influence of a shower. It is 

 generally believed that the sap is taken up by 

 the roots in a crude at.ite, and passes into the 

 leaves, where il receives certain modifications, be- 

 comes digested, nud prepared to form the new 

 wood required for the growth of the tree. We 

 have not space at present to discuss this subject, 

 but at some other time we will give it further at- 



lr is the unripened wood, we presume, that is 

 most injured. In this the pith, which is the part 

 blackened, is much larger than in theolderaud the 

 more matured branches. Early in March, or as 

 soon as the hard frosts are over, prune the trees 

 again, cutting one or two buds closer than before, 

 and we have no doubt they will come out all right

 upright in growth, Fbmbh Btaut/f, a large, beau-

 most hardy variety ever introduced. Stean't Or-

 (which we arc sorry he did nut name,) this is the 

 only one which endured the past severe winters 

 without injury. The Stc&il is n slow grower, hardy,

 winter. The fruit is the standard of excellence.— 

 SluldoH is n most excellent pear, equal in quantity

But, Whai form u beet for H,< Vineyard? I 

 believe no one sets k^s than loo vines to the acre. 

 At the age of 10 yeor« the rdot of each vine covers 

 four rods of ground, hot the vine is dwarfed back 

 to one rod. Don't reason teach anyone thai plants, 

 with such an unequal balance between roots and 

 liu.ii' shea, will be injured. The demand for sap 

 must be nearly equal to the supply to keep the 

 vines thrify. My two old vines covers one-sis- 

 leenth part of an acre; at that rate requiring onh 

 32 vines to (he acre. I recommend setting vines 

 thick, u the land gives a full crop us soon us they 

 come into bearing, but shape them to meet their 

 wnnli 11-. needed. When vines begin to mukc a 

 thrifty growth, I let n single sprout grow from 12 

 to 1>; inches from the ground, and I also let a 

 sprout remain. These two sprouts are shaped, 

 by a stake w i(h a strip across the top of it, for the 

 base branches on the lower wire of the trellis 

 They extend to within a foot of the next vines, and 

 then bent and go lo the top of the trellis. All 

 vines in tbe vineyard are Irenlcd iu the same 

 way, which makes two base branches on all the 

 trellises. Tbe nd vantages of this arrangement 

 First, you can get your uprights with me
