Profitable. Zab. X, (Lad., vul.) This is a_ seedling of 
Elvira X Perkins, originated by T. V. Munson, Denison, ‘Texas. It 
was received at this Station in 1888 and has thus far proved pro- 
ductive. Bunch medium, moderately compact, not attractive in 
appearance, because the berries assume a pale red color only when 
fully ripe, and therefore until every berry is thoroughly ripened the 
cluster has an unripe appearance from the green color of a few 
nearly ripened berries. Pulp, tender, as is also the skin. Quality 
as grown here not the best; vine vigorous and productive. The 
fruit ripened here this season about with Concord. See also 
Annual Report of this Station for 1891, p. 498. | 
Reagan. Jin. X, (din., Lab., vin.) This is a_ seedling of 
Post Oak X Triumph, originated by T. V. Munson, Denison, Texas,

bunch large, cylindrical; berry large, black with thin skin; pulp 
with red juice, melting, juicy and of very good flavor.”

Champion, originated by T. V. Munson, Denison, Texas, and sent

berry above medium, round, dull red with slight lilac bloom; skin 
thick, tough; pulp, sugary, juicy, not melting and does not readily

Red Eagle. (Zad., vin.) A seedling of Black Eagle origi- 
' nated by T. V. Munson, Denison, Texas, who sent it to the: 
Station in 1888. Bunch medium, loose; there seems to be imper- 
fect self-fertilization of the blossoms the same as with its parent, 
for the clusters are not always well filled. Like its parent, it 
has short stamens. erry ted, with abundant lilac bloom, 
medium to large, round; pulp juicy, melting, of excellent quality. 
It ripens a little before Concord. As yet it has been only mod- 
 erately productive here. See also Annual Report of this Station
