ON THE MANAGE IVIE NT 
or Sweetwater, there is great reafon to fuppofe that the offspring 
would be an improved kind. 
The following kinds alfo admit of a junction with great 
propriety, viz. The black Dajnafcus, and grizzly Frontinac — 
the flame-coloured Tokay and red Frontinac — the white Muf- 
cat of Alexandria and white Sweetwater — the black Frontinac 
and white Mcsfcadine — the St. Peter’s Grape and white Mufcat 
of Alexandria. — It is probable that fome of the foregoing ad- 
vantages might be gained by an alliance between various other 
kinds j but I flaall forbear to recite any further examples, 
enough having already been fald on this fubjedl to ftimulate 
perfons of tafte and curiofity, to purfue an amufement that, 
one may venture to pronounce, will contribute both to their 
advantage and pleafure. 
It Is evident that the prefent very extenfive variety of valuable 
kinds of grapes have been obtained from feed, either fown by 
hand and ralfed with care, or from feed accidentally let fall by 
birds, or by other chances, .whilfl the grapes continued in their 
wild flate. 
I fliall go fo far, on this occafion, as to augurate, that the 
bed; forts of grapes hitherto known, will, at fome future day, 
be edeemed only as fecondary or inferior kinds. Since we 
know that the collection of goofberries have been improved by 
feed, within the fpace of a few years, to a mod: aflonilhing de- 
gree.
