Mr. O. H. Howard, Secretary 
Lindley Nurseries, Inc. 
Greensboro, North Carolina 
Dear Mr. Howards: 
We have your letter and also one from Mr. Z. L. 
Scott of Concord, Georgia, stating your interest in 
varieties of muscadine grapes. We have been breeding 
this class of grapes for more than twenty-five years 
and have increased both yield and sugar content. 
Under separate cover we are sending to you 
bulletins which describe the varieties you have listed. 
The Hunt is probably our leading black variety both in 
point of quality and production. The Creek is one of 
the heaviest yielding varieties we have yet produced 
and is excellent for wine making, it giving the wine a 
distinct fruity flavor. It is not good, however, as a 
desert grape. The James, Thomas, and Scuppernong are 
old varieties which you Know quite well. They are not 
of our originations. 
Mr. Scott has practically all of our new varieties 
and several we did not originate. You will find him 
to be a very reliable and satisfactory man with whom 
to do business. 
Yours very truly, 
H. P. Stuckey 
Director.
