History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
landers eat them with milk, and make them into tarts and jellies, which last they mix with whisky to give it 
a relish to strangers.' 
V. uliginosum grows taller than the common bilberry, and has large globular, black, glaucous fruit. These 
have less flavor, but abound with a weak acid juice. [Eng. Bot.) In large quantities it occasions giddiness, 
and a slight head-ache, especially when full grown and quite ripe. {Linn. Suec. and Withering.) Many 
vintners in France are said to make use of the juice to color their wines red. (Withering.) They furnish an 
ardent spirit which is highly volatile and intoxicating. The Alpine birds feed upon the fruit, and it is very 
common in their haunts. ( Viliars.) 
V. Vitis ideea is of very humble growth and almost herbaceous, though evergreen. The berries are red, 
acid, astringent, and bitter. They are scarcely to be eaten raw, and though made into pies in Derbyshire, 
where they are called cow-berries, their flavor is far inferior to the cranberry. Their best use is for making a 
rob or jelly, which is eaten with all kinds of roast meat in Sweden, and is far preferable to that of the red 
currant as a sauce for venison. It is also an excellent medicine in colds, sore throats, and all irritation of the 
mouth or fauces. [Smith, Brit, and Eng. Bot.) Linnseus says, that they are sent in large quantities from 
West Bothnia to Stockholm for pickling, and the same thing is confirmed by Dr. Clarke. Miller was in- 
formed that this plant was used for edgings in Norway. 
V. tenellum is a very good fruit.
