GRAPES. 
They are the most healthful 
fruit grown, and every one hav- 
ing a family should have an 
abundance of them. Plant 
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 it with a little ground bone. Cut back one-year vines to two eyes, placing the lower one beneath the sur 
face; 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. Keep 
old wood trimmed off, growing fruit on new canes. Any pruning that will admit the sun and air to the fruit will insure a crop.
