New Yorx AGriouttuRAL Experiment STATION. 623 
in the spring of 1892, by Geo. S. Josselyn, Fredonia, N. Y., 
who says that it is a white grape that ripens a few days earlier 
than Concord. We have not yet seen its fruit. 
Etta. (Lab., vul.) The Bushberg Catalogue calls this the 
best of Rommel’s white grapes, superior to its parent, the 
Elvira. Bunch medium, compact, often so heavily shouldered 
as to form a double bunch. Very productive, but neither rich 
nor high flavored and can not be classed among the best table 
grapes. See also Annual Report of this Station for 1891, p. 496. 
Eumelan. (/a., vin.) Munson refers this to Labrusca and 
vmipferaparentage. See Annual Reports of-this Station for 1888, 
p. 105; 1889, p. 342, and for 1890, p. 326. Experiments made this 
season show that this grape is unable to set fruit of itself and 
it should, therefore, be set in proximity to other vines blossoming 
at the same season. 
Faith. (Lad.,, vul.) <A seedling of Taylor. Bunch long, 
medium, shouldered; berry small to medium, white or pale amber 
with slight bloom, juicy, sweet and pure flavored. Ripe this 
season about with the Diamond. Do not consider it as desirable 
as Diamond here. See also Annual Report of this Station for 
1891, p. 496. 
Fern Munson. Lin. X, (Lin., Lab., vin.). A seedling of Post 
Oak X Triumph, originated by T. V. Munson, of Denison, Tex., who 
describes it as follows: “Vine vigorous, hardy and productive; 
bunch large, cylindrical; berry large, black; seeds small; skin thin; 
pulp juicy, tender, of best flavor; juice red.” It was received at 
this station in the spring of 1892, and we have not yet seen its 
fruit. | 
Francis B. Hayes. See Hayes. 
Gaertner. (/togers No 14.) vin. X Lab. See Annual Report of 
this Station for 1891, p. 496. This grape should be set near some 
other variety that blossoms at the same time, because it can not 
set fruit of itself. | 
Geneva. Lab. X,(Lab., vin.). (Seedling of wild Fox grape X Mus- 
cat Alexandria) x Iona is given as the parentage of this grape. As 
grown here it has a fine appearance, but in flavor and quality it is | 
not considered equal to other white grapes of the same season.
