The duties of the vine-dresser this month are merely a continuation of those recommended for the last. Summer pruning; tying up the branches to the stakes; and keeping the weeds dowu by light hoeing or plowing.

The two canes, or branches of the new growth, intended for bearing wood next year, will reach the tops of the stakes about the middle of this month. Train them across to the next stake, and let them grow. It is injurious to shorten them in, as the fruit buds for next year might swell prematurely.

This is the month to expect rot. Plenty of light and air, provided for in training the vines, and perhaps the sulphur remedy, as heretofore recommended, may, in some measure, prevent that disease; but scarcely any treatment or application can entirely conquer what arises - like the rust in wheat - from atmospheric causes. The treatment of wine this month is the same as before stated. " Keep the cask full, and the bungs tight." Burn a sulphur match in each empty cask once a month, and bung tight. This match is a strip of rag or brown paper submerged in melted sulphur - an inch wide; and two inches long, will be enough for each cask.

In the directions for June, " branches" was printed for bunches.
