the end. Tendrils mostly intermittent, but on some canes four are found 

 continuous. Leaves medium size, rather pale green above, pubescent 

 below. Clirsters large, very much the size and shape of Worden. Berries 

 large as Worden, deep black with shining appearance. Flavor smooth, 

 sweet, and fine. Ripens between Moore's Early and Worden. Very pro- 

 ductive, ripens evenly, does not crack or shell, and retains its fine quali- 

 ties until frost. Flowers perfect. 



This variety was exhibited and awarded a premium at the Nebraska 

 State Fair, September, 1911, under the name of Osceola. The name was 

 changed by consent of the Board of Directors of the Nebraska State 

 Horticultural Society, upon the request of the originator, Mr. C. B. Camp, 

 to Santa Anna.
