Campbell's Early. Some points of special merit in Campbell's Early are a 

 very strong, vigorous, hardy vine, with thick, heavy, mildew-resisting foliage, 

 and bearing abundant clusters; very large, compact and handsome. Berries 

 large, often an inch or more in diameter; black, with light purple bloom; skin 

 thin, but very tenacious; flesh firm but tender, parting easily from its few and small seeds. Fla- 

 vor rich, sweet, slightly vinous, free from foxiness, and as the seeds part readily, they need never 

 be swallowed. Its season is very early, and in keeping qualities remarkable, having hung upon 

 the vines sound and perfect for six weeks or more after ripening, with no tendency to fall off or 

 shell from the stem. Price, 2-year vines, 40c. each, $4.00 per doz.

Green Mountain. (Winchelk) This, the earliest white grape, has been thoroughly tested 

 over a wide area, and has proved most satisfactory. It combines hardiness, fruitfulness, vigor, 

 good size and excellent quality. Btmch medium to large, shouldered ; berries medium, greenish- 

 white; skin thin, tough, pulp tender, sweet, with few seeds; of excellent quality, free from foxi- 

 ness, and the flavor is excellent, ranking in this respect as a grape of the first class. Price.
