 " During the past few years I have brought a few seedling grapes to fruit- 

 age, and out of the lot one seems good enough to be considered an acquisition. 

 It is white in color and between Niagara and Green Mountain in size. The 

 bunches are of good size, but are not shouldered exactly like the Niagara. The 

 berries have tender pulp and are very sweet. They ripen in southwestern Con- 

 necticut about September 6 and hang on well. It makes fine grape juice."
