    GREEN MOUNTAIN, Our Native Grape. Grapes and Their Culture ALSO DESCRIPTIVE LIST OF OLD AND NEW VARIETIES, PUBLISHED BY C MITZKY & CO. 1893- / W. W. MORRISON, PRINTER, 95-99 EAST MAIN STREET ROCHESTER, N. Y. \ ./v/^f Entered according to Act ot Congress, in the year 1893, by C. MITZKY & CO., Rochester, N. Y., in the office of tlie Librarian of Congress, at Washington, 1). C. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. :.^ ^ 5 •o •A ' * Introduction. RAPE GROWING is fast becoming a great industry. Its importance is almost incalculable, and it should re- ceive every reasonable encouragement. It is not our intention in this manual, ' OUR NATIVE GRAPE," to make known new theories, but to improve on those already in practice. Since the publication ot former works on this subject a great many changes have taken place ; new destructive diseases have ap- peared, insects, so detrimental to Grapevines, have increased, making greater vigilance and study neces- sary. / New varieties of Grapes have sprung up with great rapidity Many labor-saving tools have been introduced, in fact. Grape culture of the present time is a vast improvement on the Grape culture of years ago. The material herein contained has been gathered by the assistance of friends all over the country in all parts of the United States, and compiled and arranged that not alone our own ex- perience, but that of the best experts in the country, may serve as a guide to the advancement of Grape culture. We have spared neither time or expense to make this work as complete as possible. With all our efforts, however, we feel compelled to ask forbearance for our shortcom- ings and mild judgment for our imperfections.

Within a range of research topics, steep slope viticulture is still a major focus at the University of Geisenheim. We will discuss various aspects of consumer´s recognition, viticultural constraints in terms of climatic adaptations (water requirements, training system or fruit composition) as well as innovations in mechanisation in the context of future challenges of steep slope viticulture.

  • Sweet Briar College Magazine – Spring 2019
    Dear Sweet Briar alumnae and friends, Friendship and family have been on my mind lately, and so I want to tell you about some new friends I’ve been making this semester. One of them is Ray, who is tall and smart and also known as Love Z, and the other is Blues, who is very personable and a wonderful teacher. My friendship with Ray has grown over time; frankly, I didn’t seem to make much of an impression on him at first. My friendship with Blues blossomed immediately; we seem to be simpatico. As I joked with Merrilee “Mimi” Wroten, the director of Sweet Briar’s acclaimed riding program, maybe I bonded faster with Blues because he’s rather short, and so am I. And if you haven’t already figured it out, Ray, a chestnut warmblood, and Blues, a gray quarter horse, are members of the College’s equine family, and along with Mimi, they’ve been teaching me how to ride. As Sweet Briar’s president, it’s vital for me to learn as much as I can about the Col- lege, its programs and its people. That’s why I taught a course in our inaugural three- week session in the fall of 2018; that’s why I have just instituted collegial gatherings of faculty and staff every Monday evening (called Sweet Briar Hour); and that’s why I’m taking riding lessons, so that I can better understand our equestrian program, its ac- complishments and its needs. Riding also gives me a connection with many members of our Sweet Briar family; a full third of our students identify as riders, whether for competition or recreation.

Vine remarkably hardy, and an unusually strong grower; bunches very large and compact, sometimes shouldered, uniform: many weigh 15 to 20 ounces. Berries large, or larger than Concord; mostly round, light greenish white, semi-transparent, slightly ambered in the sun; skin thin, but tough and does not crack; quality good, has a flavor and aroma peculiarly its own; much liked by most people; very little pulp; melting and sweet to the center; parts freely from the seed, and as it never makes the tongue sore can be freely eaten by those who do not swallow grape seeds. It is very hardy; a NIAGARA vineyard owned by Thomas Beal, of Lindsay, forty miles north of Lake Ontario, stood 35 degrees below zero without injury, and his vines were loaded with a massive burden of fruit this past season. Ripens with Hartford, but hangs firmly on the vine until frost, without shrivelling or withering; enor­ mously productive and a regular bearer. A one year old vine set irf 1878 produced twenty five fine clusters 1879, -j in 1880, a large crop in 1881, in 1882 over 40 poinds of fruit, making the aggregate weight 65 pounds, produced the first four years set in the vineyard.

  • A History of Grape Growing in Eastern United States by Fred Elmer Gladwin
    A History of Grape Growing in Eastern United States By Fred Elmer Gladwin PART I. (Rural New Yorker, vol. XC, no. 5156, 18 April 1931, page 485-486) Probably few records covering the introduction of any fruit in the husbandry of the United States list as many trials and many failures as do those which tell of the experiences encountered by early colonists along the Atlantic seaboard who pioneered in grape development. In fact failure followed failure. Yet after a lapse of time the project would again be revived and strenuous efforts made to avoid the earlier mistakes, if such were recognized. As we now look back on their attempts and study the causes ascribed for the failures, which are many, one can readily understand that they were groping in the dark, but with the indomitable spirit that so often crowns success in most present-day undertakings. In their day there was no recourse to carefully recorded data from institutions devoted to agricultural studies, nor were there available climatic data of temperatures and rainfall, sunshine and cloudiness, nor was the relationship of large bodies of water and vine culture associated. In view of all of the difficulties encountered, many of which increased instead of diminished, it is surprising that they still had faith in an ultimate success. Since much of this early endeavor to introduce grape-growing in the East is concerned with a species not indigenous to the United States, but rather that of the Old World, it perhaps will be well briefly to point out some of the most important differences between this species and our native American grapes.

  • History of Grape Growing in the Eastern United States
    History of Grape Growing in the Eastern United States By Fred Elmer Gladwin 1931 Reproduced in 2007 from the original work which was published in eleven parts in Rural New Yorker in 193 1. Fred Elmer Gladwin (1 877-1940) was a well regarded expert in viticulture. In 1909 he was appointed a special agent of the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station (NYSAES) and put in charge of the Vineyard Laboratory at Fredonia, NY which came into existence that same year. Later he was made associate in research at the NYSAES, and in 1936 was made chief in research in Pomology, a position he held at the time of his death. His entire period of service with the Experiment Station was spent at the Vineyard Laboratory. This series of columns he authored in 1931 on the history of grape growing in the Eastern United States has been brought together here in an effort to give more prominence to a small part of his work.
