early magdelcn mode of planting the grape vine is propagated either from a slip taken from the stem of healthy vines of at least four or five years growth or by trasplanting the roots themselves by the first modo it requires seven or eight years before the vine comes to its full bearing and for the two first years those plants which fail must be replaced a hour onethird ofthc whole plantation the secoud mode is the best for if you are supplied with good plants well rooted there is no danger of loosing any and the second year from the time of transplanting they yiold fruit in climates where the winters are se vere the season for transplanting the vine is the latter part of march or the begioing of april but in more temperate latitudes the end of october is to be preferred drills or furrowsof eighteen inches wide and eighteen deep roust first be prepared and if they be made in the course of the preceding summer or autumn would be still better for the earth thus having re mained exposed to the air would be more favourable to the plant the most econo mical and expeditious way of performing ing with it throe or four tmes over the same furrow after which the ground may be dug out with a spade lo the depth re quired if toe plantation is but small or the expense no consideration the best me thod is to dig the gronnd deep whh the- spade and turn it up in all directions inlands which are very sandy and light the drills must be made to tbedepth of six teen or eighteen inches and the drier the soil the deeper they ought to be in rich soils fifteen inches is sufficient let the north to south that the plants may receive- the rave of the sun on all sides plant the roots from four to six feet apart according to the quality of the soil tbericher it is the farther apart the plants should be if you use horses for ploughing the root ought to be at least six or seven feet distant from one another and eight or nine if oxen are used so that your ground may be used without injuring any of tle plants final ly if the spade only is to be used the plante- may be placed five or six feet apart every way care roust be taken likewise not to place the plants of one row immediately opposite those of the next row that they may not be in the way of one another in planting the vine lay down six inches of the plant flat at the bottom of the drill leaning the upper part of it against the side so as to form the figure of an angle when in this position placing one fool on the roots to press them flat with the bottom of the trench you cover thein with three or four inches of good earth well pulverised ortwo or tbree handfulls of moistened ash- e you then press the clay or ashes closely with your feet aud fill up the drill so rs only to leave two eyes of the plant un covered the drills when planting roust he free from water if any from preceding raios remain in them u is better to wait a day or two until they become dry the subscriber having heeo
