Moyer. — A new giape originated in Canada,

tlie Delaware very much, but ripens earlier.

a yellow tinge; flesh juicy and almost without 
pulp; very good. Vine vigorous and produc-

Moore's Early. — Bunch large, berry round; 
color black, with a heavy blue bloom; quality 
better than the Concord. Vine exceedingly 
hardy; has been exposed to a temperature of 
more than 20 degrees below zero without in- 
jury, and is entirely exempt from mildew or 
disease. Its earliness makes it desirable for 
an early crop, maturing as it does ten days be- 
fore the Hartford, and twenty days before the 
Concord. B. 
McKinley. — A large early white grape, as 
large as the Niagara and productive; strong 
grower, and robust foliage. It is a cross be- 
tween Niagara and Moore's Early. It was orig- 
inated near where the Niagara Grape origin- 
ated. It is fully ten days earlier side by 
side. Bunches very large and compact, very 
sweet with no acid around the seeds and no 
puckery taste in the skin. It is the coming 
Early Grape for market. W. 
Niagara. — Bunch medium to large, compact, 
occasionally shouldered; berry large, roundish, 
uniform; skin thin but tough, pale green, chang- 
ing to pale yellow, with a thin whitish bloom; 
flesh slightly pulpy, tender, sweet. Remark- 
ably vigorous, healthy and productive; foli- 
age thick and leathery. Ripens with the Con- 
cord. All things considered probably the 
most valuable white grape in cultivation. W.
