VITIS, GRAPEVINE. 267 



for a part of their length & separate thereafter. The petioles have partially exposed central 

 veins that extend along the entire lengths of the five lobes of the leaf. The main lobe itself 

 is indented uniformly & quite deeply into five uneven portions bordered with a few rather 

 uneven teeth. The two neighboring lobes aren't as long & are divided by their midribs 

 into two unequal parts (the largest one is toward the base of the leaf), with several smaller 

 lobes or large teeth on their margins. The two lower lobes are even smaller & are divided 

 by their midribs into two much more unequal portions. The lower side has a deep 

 indentation with three or four teeth. The remainder of the two lower lobes is edged with 

 small indentations or with large, long, & sharp teeth. The large main lobe is about three- 

 &-a-half inches long. The two lower lobes are two-&-a-half & the two middle ones are 

 three inches long. 



The clusters aren't as big & aren't as full of grapes as the ones on the golden 

 Chasselas. The grapes are a little less round. In color, flesh, flavor, &c. there is no 

 difference at all between them, & they ripen at the same time. A very few of the grapes 

 have two seeds. 



VI. Muscat GRAPEVINE with medium-sized somewhat rounded white musky grapes. 

 White MUSCAT. (/>/.///.) 



This grapevine is about the same size as the Chasselas. The leaves are not deeply 

 indented, but they're a deeper green & their teeth are much sharper than those of the 

 Chasselas. The large lobe is about five-&-a-half inches long, the two middle ones four 

 inches three lignes & the two lower ones are three inches long. The stalk, of average 

 thickness, is three-&-a-half to five inches long.
