3 and 19 commenced ripening as early as the Hartford Pro¬ 
lific, and Nos. 4 and 15 with the Concord. 
Mr. Adams was in favor of the motion, as they had done so 
remarkably well with him. 
The Janesville. —Mr. Plumb moved to place the Janesville 
on the list as a good grape for trial. He had watched this 
grape for some time, and it had behaved admirably. It was 
hardy and ripened its wood and fruit well, though in quality 
it eould not be placed at the head. 
Mr. Greenman. It has stood where the Concord and Dela¬ 
ware have failed. He hoped to have a large show of fruit for 
another year. He had started a large number of vines this 
winter, in a forcing house, but the house had taken fire, and 
he had lost the whole of that stock ; and he did not know of 
any other for sale, except a few plants in his open grounds. 
The motion prevailed, and the Janesville was recommended 
for trial. 
Other Kinds. —Mr. Peffer has seen the Martha, whieh had 
made considerable noise, but it did not come up to the recom¬ 
mendation it had received. He thought it a regular humbug 
for this state. 
Mr. Kellogg had seen the Worden Seedling in New York, 
where it was produced. He found the parent still alive, grow¬ 
ing hj the side of all the leading sorts, and ripening its fruit 
five days earlier than the earliest. He*thought it was a seed¬ 
ling from the Concord. From three years’ trial it had proved 
very hardy in his nursery, and he was favorably impressed 
with it.

Mr. Plumb offered the following, which was adopted : 
Resolved^ That we, as a society, do extend to all producers of new fruits 
our warm sympathies in their efforts for the good of the cause, and recom¬ 
mend them to bring their fruits before the public through our patronage and 
under the observation of our members, and by placing them in the experi¬ 
mental garden.
