From onr first acquaintance with ibis remarkable 
Grape we were fully convinced of Its great superi¬ 
ority over all the early varieties previously Intro¬ 
duced, and wu have spared no pains Or expense In 
lea ruing of Its general adaptibfllty to. and success 
in the various sections or the United Stule* wliero 
the vinos have linen planted for trial. Our efforts In 
gaining this knowledge have been rewarded by the 
most gratifying sococ-s* id finding the vines every¬ 
where healthy and vigorous In growth, an<1 the fruit 
so great lv superior in quality to that of the varieties 
generally grown ws L> win for the Kumelan llrst pre¬ 
miums for quality wherever exhlhited. 
Asm Mr. Thorne's grounds ttt Flshklll, where tho 
original stock of those vines was purchased, so It 
will he wherever they are planted. Tho’Concord 
ami Hartford ProlirJo grapes grown upon vine* side

the vines until they dropped off or were picked for 
market, while the Kimielun were eagerly chosen us 
th>> bust fruit of the garden. 
The KOI ELAN Is a black grape, With berries 
about tho Bise of Ihu Concord. The bunches urn of 
large - Do, elegant form, unit proper degree of com¬
