Concord. (fA18. 12 feet). This is the standard va¬ 
riety. It ships well and is a good market grape. Fine 
for jellies. Cluster medium to large, berry large, black 
with foxy flavor. It is a good variety to use for pol- 
lenating R. W. Munson, Fern, and some other of the ex¬ 
tra fine, but imperfect flowering varieties. 
R. W. Munson. (*A3. 16 feet). (Big Berry Post- 
Oak x Triumph). Growth strong. Clusters medium to 
large. Berries when well grown, medium to large, black 
without bloom; skin never cracks; pulp tender, juicy and 
cf a very good quality, better than Concord or Beacon.

lcng pruning and when pollenated by other erect stam- 
ened varieties flowering at same time, its own pollen not 
being fully adequate, although its flowers are perfect. 
Resistant to Root Rot.
