fested by particular vines. It has, how- 
ever, been found that where Anthracnose 
is constantly prevalent, thes vines can be 
grown successfully, and made to produce 
good sound crops by careful resort to the 
winter and summer treatments alluded

portance, since it also happens tnat the 
more susceptible varieties are those that 
generally ‘produce the most esteemed and - 
most yaluable fruit, I have ever felt 
proud ef the day when, through my in- 
vestigations, both the nature of and 
remedy for this serious vine disease were 
first made known to the Australian 
vigneron in 1889.
