Delaware. This variety must still be ac- 
corded one of the highest places among 
American grapes, for hardiness, product- 
iveness and superior flavor and quality. 
In bunch and berry it is, under good cul- 
tivation, of full medium size, the clusters 
usually shouldered, compact and heavy; 
shin thin, but tenacious ; pulp tender and 
melting; juice abundant, rich, vinous, 
sugary, sprightly and refreshing in a re- 
markable degree. Wine-color when fully 
ripe, and the berries covered with a thin, 
whitish bloom. To produce its best re- 
sults, the Delaware requires a rich soil 
and good cultivation. It seems more free 
from rot than any other variety in culti- 
vation ; and if not permitted to over-bear, 
is among the most reliable grapes wher- 
ever soil and location are favorable, giv- 
much profit to successful growers.

Finest in Mexico. 
Mu. E. W. Reid: City of Mexico. 
Never before have I received or witnessed such plants as 5 r ou sent me. They were 
the finest I ever saw. Did not expect to get such stock. When the package was undone 
they appeared as fresh as if just dug. J. M. Robekts.

Mk. E. W. Reid: Zanesvili.e, Onio. 
My plants came to hand O. K., and will say they are the best rooted plants I have ever 
received heretofore. Many thanks for extras. You will hear from me again.
