The European I Kinds
' For those people who desire the
flavor ot European grapes, we
found" that the Sweetwater and
Golden Chasaelas to jbe the most
satisfactory in general. This is
a white or green gr$pe that ma
tures about the same time as the
Concord, or possibly ja little later,
but often fails to; develop the
quality that it should. In cool
seasons, or when early fall rains
come, it does not develop the su
gar content desired. Ia some of
the more protected places we find
varieties like the Muscat Hamburg
or Rose of Peru doing very well,
but these cannot j be generally
planted with the expectation of be
ing successful with them. On the
experiment station! grounds, the
Chasselas Rose Royal! and the
Chasselas . Rouge have proven
nearly as successful! in maturing a
crop as the Golden Chasselas, but
do not bear any ways nearly as
heavily. j j , i
t The regular wine grapes and
raisin grapes of California cannot
be considered for this district, as
they demand a long, warm season
for maturing the crop. Many of
these varieties are under test at
the experiment station, and most
of them fail to even show any de
gree of maturity in the average
season. In the season of 1922,
when more varieties ripened than
ever before, but very few of them
attained the quality desired for
these grapes, while most ot them
never even ripened i enough for
picking from the-vines.;

opment of the, vines and affords
ease in cultivation. The earlier
grape . vines can be planted in the
fall and winter, thO better they
will be, as it will give the vines a
chance to establish a root system
during the winter season.! Avoid
planting late in the spring, as this
does not give the Vine a good
chance to establish j itself before
the hot weather conies on. After
the vines are set out, about the
only thing necessary he first seas
on is thorough, consistent cultiva
tion to prevent the excessive loss
of moisture from the soil.
i I
At the beginning of the second
season the general practice is to
cut the vine back to two buds. The
idea of it is to prevent the canes
of : the previous season bearing
any fruit- but rather devoting the
energieas of the plani more or less
to the establishing df a root sys
tem and ; growing a rigorous
healthy cane for the coming seas
on. Although, only one cane will
be allowed to grow after this seas
on, two, are permitted the; second
season for the simple reason that
one of them may be destroyed and
this will not set this plant back
a year in establishing the frame
work. J ! '
At the beginning Jof the third
season, the stronger and better
cane is selected and cut at the
height desired, which will be de
termined by the pruning system,
which will be followed in the
planting. All other canes or
growths are removed, leaving the
single cane to form the main stalk
of the plant. j
. Heavy Pruning Best
After the vines become mature,
the annual pruning is a very dras
tic, heavy cutting, as over 90 per
cent of the previous season's
wood is removed each pruning
season. The best fruit and the
finest bunches are grown on the
vines that are heavily pruned.
More bunches might! be produced
on vines if, more wood could be
left, but the quality would be de
cidedly inferior, and' it is: doubt
ful if the total production would
be any heavier. j I
The pruning of grapes j is not
at all difficult if care is taken in
the selection of the
left and the number
wood to be
of buds left.
The bearing of the plant the com
ing season- will be determined by
the number of buds
left on the
weak, fewer
that more
vine. If the vine is
ouds can be left so
strength will go into producing
vigorous
season.
wood for
the coming
On the other hand an
overly-vigorous vine should have
more fruit buds left, thus tending
to cut down on the cane growth,
devoting more of the energy to the
production of fruit. Probably with
the grapes, more than other fruit,
it is a question of the individual
development and vigor of the
vines when determining how much
wood should be pruned away.
- In selecting the number of buds
or the number of buds to be left,
it is generally considered that the
first two buds on the cane are
more or less apt to be sterile.
They will not be entirely so, but
the buds farther out will bear a
large number of fruit clusters to
the bud than the first two. Omit
those in the counting of the buds
on each cane.. If for instance,
you are leaving six to eight fruit
buds to the cane, it will mean the
total number will be eight to ten.
As the tendency of the Tine is
to extend the growth each year,
bearing only the one ;year on each
year's growth. If let grow natural
ly the bearing ;woo4, would soon
be a long ways from the jmain
stalk. From the older wood each
year there ! will be found Coming
up, young, vigorous canes, j These
are usually sterile, but are used
in renewing canes, bringing the
fruiting wood back, j At the time
of pruning these are cut to one or
two buds, forming renewal spurs.
The coming season, these spurs
will produce good, vigorous fruit
ing wood, which can be used the
following season f or jthe develop
ment of the fruiting wood i, close
to the main stalk, j j f
The Training Systems'
Grapes have usually been train
ed, to the i four armed Kniffen
system. This Kniffen system is
more commonly used on American
grapes than any other system of
training grapes. The trellis is
nothing but a two-wire berry trel
lis. In this the cape or main
shoot is tied to the j upper wire.
Running from the cane each way
on each wire will be eft one cane

or arm. The total number of buds
desired to leave for the individual
vine ia distributed evenly over the
four arms. . :
Aside , f rom the four armed
Kniffen system, we find the Mun
son system giving excellent suc
cess. This is a three-wire system
in which the lower wire is placed
3 to 4 feet from the ground with
the two upper wires one foot
higher, and at the outer edge of
an IS inch cross piece. The main
stalk is trained to the lower wire,
and then j two to four canes are
trained along this lower wire. As
the bud3 break and the new shoots
develop, they will be upright for
a short time, but gradually droop
over, and in this way lay over the
two upper wires. This system of
training is more expensive to es
tablish in the first place, but is
more easily handled during pick
ing. The bunches all, hang free
and are not entwined by the grow
ing canes or the tendrils of the
vines. . Also, it allows more cir
culation of air, tending to reduce
the susceptibilty to disease.
General Care, Harvesting
The general care . of . the grape
vine is the same as for any other
fruit tree.! Thorough, consistent
cultivation is : advisable for the
best results. However, it is noti
ceable at times to what degree the
grape vines can . be neglected and
still bear a certain amount of
fruit. j
From observation during the
past few seasons it would seem
that a few remarks about the har
vesting of grapes would not come
amiss. Grapes do not develop their
full quality of flavor, when they
first change color. With a grape
like Campbells Early, the quality
is not developed for some time
after it turns dark. If picked in
the green stage, they do not have
a pleasant: flavor and will certain
ly not appeal to the customer. If
left until fully developed, the
quality is sure to be excellent and
the grapes will keep better than
when picked green.
In picking the grapes, use clip
pers or knives to . cut off the
bunches. Handle the bunches as
little as ppsible in order to leave
the bloom! on the berries. If pick
ing during the heat of the day,
better success will be had in avoid
ing the shelling of the berries
from the bunches. The stalks of the
clusters will be more or less wilted
at that time while the grapes will
be dry in the bunch. .Grapes pick
ed moist will soon develop decay.

Oregon farmers have taken
commendable activity in building
up great herds of pure bred cat
tle, hogs, sheep and goats. There
are perhaps more record-breaking
pure bred animals in: the Willam
ette valley than ! ini! any other
equal area in the United States.
Strange as it. may seem, the
men who have been so earnestly
engaged in promoting the pure
bred stock for their j farms have
given so small attention to the
production of pure bred seed for
their crops. This J fact, when
thoughtfully considered, opens the
way for a campaign jof education
along two important lines; the
growing of pure bred ' certified
seed and the education of the
farmers to a , realization of the
value of using that kind of seed.
Visit any seed store in the val
ley and you will find seed offered
for sale is mostly from California
or Minnesota, or at least from
some point outside of Oregon.
A certain firm in Salem is this
spring of 1925 putting out certi
fied seed potatoes where it fur
nishes the seed "to be paid for in
the harvest and agrees to pur
chase the crop at a good figure.

Seed men are always looking
for new territory from which to
procure high grade seed. '
Certain sections of Idaho and

over to growing seed.!
