DESCRIPTION OF VARIETIES. 245 



Bunches medium to large, moderately compact. Berries 

 medium, greenish white, oval. Flesh quite tender, with- 

 out pulp when fully ripe. Quality good. It is rather too 

 late in this locality to be reliable. 



MEADE'S SEEDLING. 



Supposed to be an accidental seedling, found in the 

 garden of John Meade, Lowell, Mass., in 1847. It is very 

 much like Catawba, if not identical with it. 



MILES. 



Bunch medium. Berries medium to large, black, oval, 

 sweet, rather buttery, but good. Very early. Vine a 

 strong and healthy grower. 



MOORE'S HYBRIDS. 



Mr. Jacob Moore, of Rochester, N. Y., has produced a 

 few very remarkable hybrids, some of which promise to 

 be of merit. Very few of them have yet been dis- 

 seminated, consequently it is not known as yet how they 

 will succeed in other localities. Of the following varie- 

 ties, as well as the Diana Hamburgh, mentioned on a 

 preceding page, we have had an opportunity of testing 

 the fruit, and have vines of each in our specimen garden. 



CLOVER STREET BLACK. Medium large size, black, 

 flesh tender, sweet, and good. Leaves very large. Ap- 

 parently a vigorous grower. 



SPOTTED GLOBE. Flesh sweet, very tender, good. The 

 vine with me is very feeble. 



WHITE MUSK. A medium size white grape, with very 

 little flavor. The vine resembles the Sweetwater, but 

 has stood in my grounds for the past two winters without 

 protection. 



IMPROVED CLINTON. This is a very great improvement
