S'RUIT CULTUBS. 



The Native Grape has latterly engrossed a large share of attention, 

 and a greater impulse has been given to its culture b;y the yaiuable 

 accessions which we yearly receive. Those old standard varieties, 

 the Catawba and Isabella, are now mainly superseded by others that 

 ripen earlier, and thus escape the fall frosts, which in many localities 

 injure the crop, more especially the Catawba. The newer varieties 

 are also more generally exempt from mildew, although there are 

 possibly none that are entirely proof against its attacks at particular 

 seasons. In flavor and quality of fruit the improvements are m^re 

 marked, and in the Delaware and Eebecca we have a near approach, 

 in this respect, to some'of the famed foreign varieties. The following 

 are considered the hardiest and best. Price from 60 cents to $1 each, 

 according to size. 



Adirondac, black. Hartford Prolific, black. 



Catawba, red. Iona, amber. 



Coxcord, black. Israela, black. 



Creveling, purple. Ive's Seedling, black.

MA'RTHA.— White Concord. 



This new grape grown from the seed of the Concord, by Sam'l. 

 Miller of Lebanon, Pa., promises to be one of the greatest acquisitions 

 to our list of really hardy and good grapes, which have lately come 

 before the public. Bunch medium, but compact and heavy shouldered; 

 being pale yellow covered with a white bloom,' round, pulpy, but sweet 

 as honey; vrith only enough of the foxy aroma to give it character;
