TO PROP AG ATI VINES EHOM

SEEDS. When vines are to be rai-ed from seed they should be sowed the latter end of February, or begiia ing of M.Mxh. or truy mav he sowed as late

a- the middle of April; but the earlier the better, in rows, in borders or in tied. Sow the seed thin in rub light earth, (well spaded and raked.) about an inch deep, and if the weather is dry, water tin m occasionally, and when the reds begin to vege'ate, the plants should be w atered iu the evenings in dry weather. When the plants are ix inches high, they should he carefully tied to rods, leaving only one "em the first year; the rods should be nearly as high as the vines are likely to grow the first season. W hen the leaves begin to drop, pull t all as they turn veilow, so that the wood may

ripen well. About the latter end of March, th next season, they may be planted out where they are intended to remain, and they should he cut ofjfto the third ey e, if very trong, but only to the second, if w.-;k. rubbing .ff ihe lower bud with the finger and thumb. And afterwards they are to be managed as the cuttings ihat are planted in the Vineyard. But it is to be obs- rv d. that the Vines propagated from st ed, do not all hear fruit, probablv not more than the half of them; therefore iftluy arc strong growing Vines, I would ad vie to engraft all the barren ones.
