The limits of a catalogue do not permit more than 

 brief mention of modes of cultivation of the grape. I 

 refer the reader to the excellent works of Fuller and 

 Husmann for full details. Plant in rows six feet apart 

 and eight feet apart in the row. Dig holes sufficiently 

 large to amply accommodate the roots of the vine and 

 use only fine surface soil in filling in, mixing with it a 

 little ground bone. Cut back one-year vines to two eyes, 

 placing the lower one beneath the surface ; cut back two- 

 year vines to three or four eyes, putting two or three 

 eyes below the surface. Spread the roots out, after 

 trimming them ; place the stock of the vine at one side 

 of the hole and fill up with soil, pressing down firmly 

 with the feet. Set a stake by the side of the stock, to 

 which the vine should be kept tied, which will be all the 

 support needed for two years Keep old wood trimmed 

 off, growing fruit on new canes. Any manner of pruning

By mail post-paid at dozen rates if desired. If by mail at loo rates, add ^oc. per loo for one year 

 vines and 76c. per 100 for two years. Thousand rates of any upon application.
