THE GRAPE VINE. 
By FREDERIC MOHR, 
Doctor of Philosophy and Medicine. 
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN, 
AND ACCOMPANIED WITH 
filints on Slie Propagation sinrt 
General Treatment of Am- 
erican Varieties. 
By IIORTICOLA. 
This work is mainly devoted to the most element' 
ary matters. It explains the structure and mode 
of growth of the vine so clearly that no intelligent 
person who reads it need be In doubt what to do 
with his vines. It has been well translated, and a 
chapter on the propagation of American varieties 
has been substituted for the original one on multi- 
plying the European Grape. As anatomy is the 
foundation of surgery, so is a knowledge of the 
structure of the vine to the vine-dresser. In both 
cases, it is as important to know wheu and where 
to cut and how.
