JMkKTINOOF THE HORTICULTURAL 80
11TY t'CLTUBB OF THK UHAPt. At the tri'dlni?
f the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society held
lat evening, a larsre audience was prescnu The
pitnripal essay read was by Mr. A. 8. Kuller, of
New York, the suryect, "(.rape Culture."
As Mr. Fuller i tue author ot one of our
tandard works on the Dianafremetit of the vino,
jonslderable interest was manifested to hear
buy views on the present occasion.
After a brlel rclcrenco to the history of the
vine In America, he pasd to the subject of the
LOCATION OF VINBYARD.
The essayist believed speculative or theoreti
cal knowledge wa eapable of deciding whether
any particular locality wag favorable or other-
wice. kuc.-i-h or failure depended on such
prob:ematn nl hitluences that only actual expe-
particular pot for grapo Rrowinif. From the
difluslon ol the irrape all over the United States
In a wild state, he concluded that there was no
location where diflieuities were experienced
that could not be made successful by careful at
tention. Hill sides the expenence ot all na
tions had proved to be as a rule more favorable
than plama. fold currents, or situations so
vorable l CrP8le mra cnlilnB werc Ullfa-
BOIL.
He considered another debatable topic. He
had seen grnpes doiim well la almost ever?
kind of soil in the Union, and hIho failures in
all, but on the whole preferred a light, gravelly
or calcareous one. It was not necessary to
loosen the soil three or four leet, as otten re
ceumended, but it wa best to make it twelve
or eighteen inches deep.
FERTILIZING.
Excessive manuring was a great evil. If the
oU was rich enough to make shoots six to ten
leet a jear, it needs no manuring. Vines which
make from hftccn to twenty leet pervearsel
lom keep heulthy, especially if such naturally
strong glowers as Delaware. It was. therefore
dangerous for a novice to follow any directions
of others as to fertilizing his particular soil. It
were better lor him to use his own judgment
. no matter how immature it might be. until a
httle experience on that location had been
gained. When fertilization was resorted to he
preferred a compost of two parts "muck" to one
part barn-jard manure, inverting the propor
tions lor very heavy soils, always using a
handful of bone-dust when planting each vine.
CULTIVATION.
He advised keeping the surfarp clean and
never, under any circumstances, growinz'anv
tbing else among the vines. J
PROPAGATING.
Raisers of new kinds sacrifice the quality of
their young plants by foicing them in stron"
heat. In oroer to tret the greatest (juantity in the
shortest time. Unless t. vine have at least six
inches of ripe or brown wood, It should be con
sidered worthless for practicil purposes. Cut
tings of everything but Delaware and Norton's
Vireinia grow readily In the open air. All cut
tings frhould be made in the fall, as soon as the
wood is ripe, using pieces with two or three
ejes as cuttings, burying them in the ground
during the winter, and plant early In spring. In
leep rich soil.
PLANTING.
The essayist recommended bhortening long
roots to one foot or elehreen inches lroin the
main stem. There are two systems one, plant
ing as shallow as possible; the other, the oi l
Roman plan ot setting eiehtcen Inches deep and
never allowing surface roots to grow. He pre
ferred the shallow plan.
PRUNING AND TRAINING.
He thought light pruning tended to overbear
ing in the Rrape. He would prune severely to
connteiact this evil. No experienced vineyardist
ever recommended taking off leaves in summer.
Six by eight ite. was the best distance, anrLia
some instances four by eight would do wfTre
the dote pruning he recommended would be
cameo om.
In training he "preferred the horizontal
pjsiem, aim spur pruning, Because It can Dutf e
duced to an exact science, or the nearest to it
of any system now made known." It is not. th
sstem that will give the greatei weight on a
given space, but by it grapes, for duality cannot
be excelled. The Taylor, Clinton, and other
very s'rong growing kinds, did not, however,
bear well when close pruned. The tan system,
with longer spurs, was better, and if still more
Iruit was wanted, use the bow system of Mr.
Husmann. Improper pruning, or no pruning
at all, by inducing overbearing, was the cause
of innumerable lailnres. Those who bought
vines for "immediate bearing" usually had their
wish. They had an immediate and only a first
and tha lt crop. A great error is to leave too
long canes on oune and weak vines. The
lower buds do not then push at all, and only a
tew bunches are gathered from sickly shoots at
the top. On the
PROFITS OF ORAPE CULTURE,
Mr. Fuller said much injury had been done
by reckless statements of enormous profits
which no one, or at best but few, by extraor
dinary good fortune, could ever realize. Those
who hud vines to sell were not the ones to ques
tion as to the profits of grape culture. They
had not the experience of fruit raisers, who
alone could give the facts. The plant raisers
could give the Agates. Hundreds were unsuc
cessful, vet some had made Irom one to two
thousand dollars per acre, clear proflt. The
trouble usually was, people undertook too
much; five acres was enough for one man to
be employed In for one year. Thousands of
dollars were spent in preparing the ground, and
buying and planting vines, but none, or little,
on buying the brains to care for them after
wards. With regard to the
SELECTION OF VARIETIES
only local experience could be safely followed.
The Concord was the only grape that had been
lound to do well in any place where a crape
wonld do at all. Others, like Hartford Proliic.
Israella, Creveling, Iona, Adirondac, Rogers'
Hybrids, etc., were fine grapes if, after trying
them, they were found to do well. For a a
amateur he would name besides Concord, as a
certainty, the following for trial: Delaware,
Creveling, Catawba, Adirondac, Israclla atcer
finding out those which suit the location, plant
largely of them. Your neighbor's experience
may save your own experiments.
That grapes can be grown to an Immense
profit, by "some," is now a fixed fact. The
fault with our people is they think some things
can be done by "others" as well as by "some,"
and so they can if. with their money and enter
prise, they will add a little paips-taking expt
rience,

THE DAILY EVENING TELEGIMril PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY,
Fbasklin Instittjte Lecttjbeb. The
first hcture of the Franklin Institute Winter
oune was delivered last evening by Professor
Herry Morton, and wss largely attended. The
Miblcet was, "Elect ricity and its Luminous
tflect," and the Professor treated of the pre
sent theory of electricity, and the various means
lor developing the force-first, by friction;
second, by induction; and third, by galvanic
induction. Vailons experiments were made;
gome of them with the new Holtz machine, the
most powerful instrument ever Invented; other
by the Ruhmkorfl coll, capable Irom its power
of producing a fatal effect with a single spark.
Luminous phenomena, most brilliant in appear
ance, were developed with both of these ma
chines, and called forth very lively manifesta
tions of pleasure from the audience.

Estimate of the Tax Rate for 1867.
The Committee on Finance ol Councils have not
yet received the estimates for 1867 from all the
departments, and therefore cannot determine
the rate of tax for 18C7. Some of the commit
tee are anxious to reduce the present amount
to $3'50 on the $100; but others rontend that
nothing less than the present rate will do,
because of extraordinary appropriations made
during 1866, which will causo a deficiency of
."bout $1,000,000, which includes $600,000 to be
paid the State for back taxes. The probability
is that the committee will agree to repon to
Councils the rate of $4 on the $100.
