gus and insect diseases, and must have 

 long life. 



As to begin with, one or even two 

 varieties can be found containing all 

 these qualifications, we must manage to 

 combine them from two or three or per- 

 haps a dozen different varieties and spe- 

 cies of grapes, to be used as parents, re- 

 quiring as many generations, and in each 

 generation we may have to produce hun- 

 dreds of thousands of distinct seedling 

 combinations before we can get one we 

 deem a sufficient advance toward the 

 ideal to be used as a parent in the direct 

 line to the ideal final product. 



Each generation, if our knowledge and 

 judgment have been good, will furnish 

 some individuals with more of the de- 

 sired qualities than the previous genera- 

 tion, and thus are used as parents for 



further breeding. Even if we do not 

 reach the ideal in the first, second or 

 many subsequent generations, these gen- 

 erations will furnish improvements over 

 the old, so we can be using them in a 

 commercial way, while we are still striv- 

 ing to get to the ideal. 



How Munsoa Worked. 



As an instance, to get the early red 

 market grape suited for the south I will 

 illustrate by example, from my home 

 place, in which my father has partially 

 brought about the ideal, it has not yet 

 been produced, for enough time has not 

 elapsed, but it can be said that it is an 

 improvement by breeding. 



First the Lindley was used as the 

 mother and the Delaware as the pollen 

 parent. Among the crosses obtained 



was the Brilliant, a vigorous, healthy 

 vine less subject to root rot than Con- 

 cord, not so resistant to severe cold, but 

 more enduring in the hot, dry, drouthy 

 climate of Texas; subject to mildew in 

 foliage as are both parents, and like 

 them quite exempt from black rot. The 

 cluster and berry are rather larger than 

 its mother, the Lindley, though the clus- 

 ter and berry when the variety first bore 

 resembled the Delaware, and it ripens 

 several days ahead of its parents, both 

 the Lindley and Delaware. The quality 

 is superb and generally preferred as an 

 eating grape to the Delaware.
