size, white, sweet, and pleasant; a fine sort, but au Lject 
to shiivel when growing in a wet border.

amber, musky and sweet ; a fine early sort. 
Decon’s Supers. (syn Sahibee.} — Bunches rather 
large and handsome ; berries large, oval, amber color, ap-

often a bad setter.

many shouldered; berries medium size, round, amber- 
white, sweet, and tasted. A fine sort, an 
sionally most extraordinarily large. It has been grown to 
nineteen pounds weight, but such bunches are only ex- 
ceptions. Many Spaniards to whom we have shown this 
grape, recognize it as the one from which sherry wine is 
made. 
Syrian—Bunches very large, and heavy shouldered : 
berries large, slightly oval, white and sweet. If we hare 
at the present time any grape in cultivation which is the 
the one brought by spies out of the land of Canaan, this is 
the most likely sort. It is always large, and sometimes 
very heavy ; a fine late kind.
