SELECT FOREIGN GRAPES. 



All attempts at cultivating these varieties in the open air, in the Korthern States, 

 have provjd unsuccessful. 



Under very favorable circumstances, some of the more hardy varieties, such as the 

 Black Hamburgh or White Sweet Water, produce a few bunches for the first year or 

 two after they are planted, but they soon become worthless by the attacks of mildew, 

 and the other effects of an ungenial climate. 



Their culture, under glass, icitlwut fire heat, is very simple and successful, and is 

 now attracting much attention. 



PRICE-— Each 75 cents ; $6 per dozen, for strong vines 1 year old.
