 dollar. 



Mr. N. B. White, of Norwood, exhibited a dish of Seedling 

 Grapes, for the first prize of twenty dollars. While the Committee 

 considered the specimens as superior in quality and bunch, yet 

 they did not feel warranted in awarding the premium, with their 

 limited knowledge of the habits and growth of the vine. 



The Committee would recommend that the Society apjioint a 

 Conunittee of two from the Grape Connuittec, to visit INIr. White's 

 place, at dillerent times during the coming year, and re[)ort at the 

 next annual exhibition.
