A FEW TESTIMONIALS AS TO QUALITY. 
“ •rhe hasket of Woodrufl Red received. I am much disappointed, for from the (eastern) abuse the Grape has re 
cetved, I lolly expected to squirm while eating the first berry, so I took a bunch from the basket, held it up to the light 
ami said to myself, very fair to look upon, hut doubtless false. ’ But the fruit was a genuine surprise, for the grape is 
not only big and handsome, but is also delicious. Score another point for the West, f wish I had ten acres of Wood 
ruff Red. Yours - Respectfully, 
GEORGE S. JOSSELYN, Fredonia, N. Y. ”

If oodrujf Red.— Of this hardy, vigorous sort . vines gave last summer a heavy crop of attractive fruit The 
bunch is large heavy compact, with a short shoulder ; the berry very large, round, clear pale red; the flesh iuiev 
sweet, and with a slight musky flavor. The fruit of this variety attracted much attention and seemed to be as general- 
ly acceptable to the palate as it was agreeable to the eye. Season, late August and early September.

grapes. Looks well 
H. E Vandeman, U. S. Pomologist "Very good. Will rank with Ulster, and better than Wyoming Red. ” 
Mr. V andeman when asked if it had been over- praised, said decidedly, “ No ! ” 
G. A. Brackett, the noted Pomologist of Iowa : “ Very fine indeed. I have some vines growinsr and I want 
some more. ” ^ 
The above are a few of the .expressions of many hundreds who have tasted the: “ Woodruff Red Grape,” and not 
one that tasted it, but pronounced it very good. It attracted more attention than any other fruit at the Michigan State
