NEW, EXTRA EARLY, WHITE GRAPE, 
"Lady." 
This seedling is introduced by the eminent grape culturist, 
Geo. W. Campbell of Ohio, -whose experience and reliable 
judgment is known throughout the country. In a private 
letter from Mr. Campbell, he assures me that I can recommend 
the " Lady " as sure to realize the very strong recommendations

dew, and, so far, has never shown a vestige of rot. In flavor it 
is much more pure and delicate than Concord, though in its 
texture and general character much like it. Like the Concord,
