Mr. Manly, of Erie Co., recommended, 1st, Rostiezer, which is a vigorous grower, and needs pinching in regularly. 2d, Louise Bonne, for its productiveness and market qualities generally* 3d, Duchesse, always bears well, so well that the fruit ought to be thinned, so as to allow the balance to become of the best size. 4th, Beurre d'Anjou bears large crops of very handsome fruit. Here in Buffalo, a quality for standing June frosts is desirable, and Louise possesses that After the frost of June 8,1859, the Louise dropped but little; Duchesse, although the fruit dropped considerably, retained enough to have a very handsome and desirable crop.

Mr. Beadle, of Canada, here spoke of the very dismal tone of each speaker as to blight, and the other difficulties in the way of cultivation, and wished now to hear the other side.

Mr. Townsend, in answer to questions, stated that in his quite good-sized orchard, the balance sheetwas as a whole satisfactory - $400 to $500 per acre - would average $100 per year to the acre. In fact, he knew of no business more profitable at present than dwarf pear culture, and is actively engaged in it. Had heretofore advocated thorough tillage, and does so still. Nothing else will answer. Any land that will yield sixty bushels of corn to the acre will answer for dwarf pears.

Mr. Manly apologized for speaking of his misfortunes, but those were what we would like to prevent, and we came together to learn about these dismal things, and how to prevent them, wholly or in part. As to the "other side/' had cultivated Louise Bonne, etc., for five years, upon eight acres of laud, which has yielded him a net of $300 per acre, and cultivates it as well as corn.

Mr. Ainsworth desired, before the society separated, to show them the difference between the results of good and poor cultivation after eight years' planting. They were standard pear-trees of different sorts transferred from the nursery at the same time. One lot, which was planted in sward ground, are mostly dead ■, but one Bartlett of about average size, measured just the length of this string in circumference, (4§ inches,) and had two pears on. It has had from one to three pears on for several years. The Tyson "stands grief" best, and a tree of Tyson was nearly double the size of the Bartlett, but had no more pears on Another lot was planted in good corn ground, and has had the weeds cultivated down all the time - are nearly all living, and not a tree of this lot but will measure fifteen inches in circumference, while this (2 feet 9 1/4 inches) is the circumference of a Bartlett tree which has this year about three bushels of fine healthy pears upon it, and from which we last year gathered more than a bushel.

Of course no further comments were necessary as to the different results of poor and of good cultivation.

7. The Grape

What is the best method of cultivating the out-of-door grape? Upon this question a very interesting discussion sprang up, and we only regret our inability to give the remarks of many of the speakers verbatim.

Mr. Peck, of Bloomfield, has thus far cultivated mostly the Isabella, although he is commencing to test some of the newer varieties, especially Delaware and Diana. Plants in rows ten feet apart each way, and trains to a trellis six feet high, of four wires, supported on cedar posts forty-eight feet apart, and set three feet into the ground, the lowest wire one foot from ground. In 1859 the product of three-eighths of an acre was 4,000 pounds, sold for cash, $500. To show the importance of having grapes well cultivated, well ripened, and well packed, Mr. Peck said his first quality grapes sold readily at fourteen cents per pound, while the second quality only brought five cents per pound. After setting the vine out, allows it to make one strong shoot the first year, which in the next spring is cut off a foot from the ground. Let two shoots start from this, and make laterals upon the lowest wire of the trellis: one running each way until it meets the lateral of the next vine. From the laterals train the uprights upon the trellis, and i with proper attention the whole of the wires will be covered. Spoke of winter protection: & laid part of his vines down last winter, and part he allowed to remain on the trellis; but can not this season see any difference in the vines.

Some are more injured than others. In making the trellis, used new telegraph wire, No. 9, in lengths of thirty rods each, fastened at one end into a well-braced post, and at the other cut with a thread, so that, with a nut, he can loosen each winter and tighten again each spring. Finds the wire to contract about one foot in the thirty rods between the coldest and warmest weather.

Mr. Moody, of Newfane, liked the trellis training very well, but much preferred the single stake system, for several reasons: 1st, You get fine grapes on young wood, i. e., canes one year old. 2d, You can take better care of the vines through each winter. 3d, You can put your vines nearer together. Rows eight feet apart and plants five feet apart in the rows are the distances bo prefers. In training to the single stake, practises what is called the bow system. First year let the plant grow all to one cane. The second year cut back the one cane, and allow two to grow right up to a stake some six feet high. Take out all the laterals, so as to force the growth into these two canes. Next spring cut away the weaker of these two, and train the other upon the bow system, And fruit it. Practises deep cultivation, and keeps it up; never drives his cultivator less than six inches from surface, and deeper as goes further from plants; liked very much the system called the double sub soiling, as a preparation for the vineyard. Did not like the practice of mulching his vines. Under this mode of training, the single bows will average sixteen pounds to the vine of grapes, worth fifteen cents per pound.

This would be about $2 40 per vine; and as the acre planted five feet by eight would contain about 1,100 vines, we could afford to receive half that sum per vine and yet make more money than by training upon the trellis system as mentioned by Mr. Peck.

Mr. Moody was thinking very highly indeed of the Delaware and Diana vines, because, 1st, they always ripen their crops, and the Isabella fails about one year in five; and 2d, when ripe, the Isabella always requires some sugar for the manufacture of wine; while the Diana and Delaware have saccharine matter sufficient to dispense with " rock candy" or "loaf sugar".

Mr. Herendeen, of Wayne, spoke also in confirmation of Mr. Moody as to Diana and Delaware grapes; mentioned also a fruit-grower named Bradley, who by careful attention to his picking and packing his crop of Isabella fruit, sold his grapes last season at twenty cents per pound. They were nicely packed in pasteboard boxes with five pounds to the box, so as to reach market in fine order. Other parties who wished to realize such prices sent their fruit in bulk, and not so well packed, and their returns only averaged five cents per pound.

Mr. Ainsworth, of Bloomfield, trains bis vines upon trellises; but thinks that all the protec-tion which they need in winter is to loosen them each autumn from the trellis, and allow the vine to lie flat upon the ground. Does not think it needful to throw earth upon them. Puts his vines twelve feet apart in the rows, but the rows ten feet apart, same as Mr. Peck's.

Mr. Bissell, of Rochester, could endorse all that had been said in commendation of either the Diana or the Delaware. Both varieties are largely endued with saccharine matter, and need no supplies of sugar when the juice is expressed for wine. Again, in our northern latitude, we must have varieties which, while they produce largely and freely, are also certain to bring their crops to maturity every season. In our climate we can rarely ripen the Catawba, and the Isabella so frequently fails that we have been anxiously searching for the vine to take the place of both: now in the Delaware and Diana we think we have found them. As a black grape, Concord is rapidly becoming a deserved favorite.

Mr. B. advocates the " renewal system," and would prefer the trellis training, although the stakes will do very well. Post and wires cost more at first than stakes, and are more labor to put up than the stakes; but, although in the beginning you can get more fruit to the acre from stake training, you can, when the vine is fully in bearing, get more fruit from the trellis training; and for table use the trellis fruit is finer and better fruit For wine manufacture we can probably get a greater weight of grapes per acre from stake training, but the bunches are not likely to be so large nor so fine looking.
