NEW YORK EXPERIMENT STATION 
“Athens Much like Concord but a month earlier A 
*Brocton A gold of good flavor and production A 
~Bronx Seedless 
“Buffalo One of the best blacks. Midseason, fine quality. A 
“Dunkirk A red somewhat like Delaware but larger in berry and 
cluster. Flavor is not similiar. Midseason. A 
“Eden A beautiful and finely flavored black, tho clusters have 
been somewhat straggly. Good production. A 
Fredonia A good early grape of the Concord type. A 
~Goff. The first named variety of this station, interesting. A 
“Golden Muscat In spite of my dislike for anything faintly 
labrusca I find this a delicious variety for the table. It 
has very large clusters of large oval berries, beautifully 
golden. Ripens in late midseason. Inclined to overbear and 
should be prunéd carefully. A 
~ Hanover 
SnHeccor 
“Interlaken Seedless A hardy (to -15) seedless variety ripen- 
ing a month before Concord. Beautiful golden and delicious 
berries. Should be tried by everyone. B You can now grow 
a good seedless grape in your own vineyard--better eating than 
the shipped-in Thompson Seedless from California. 
~Kendaia 
“Keuka. Late lilac grape of unique flavor--my favorite. A 
~Ontario An early white grape of excellent quality and pro- 
duction. A 
“Pontiac A 
“Portland A big-berried white for the table. A 
~Ripley Heavy producing gold, midseason. Very promising. A 
Ruby 
“Schuyler. Large well filled clusters, ripening before Concord 
and of superior quality. Hardy to -15. Prune short. B 
~Seneca is an excellent gold table variety, comparing favor- 
ably with some vinifera. A Early 
“Sheridan Later than Concord, similiar type. Has a compact 
cylindrical cluster of big berries, makes wonderful jam. A 
“Steuben Of all the varieties of this station, Steuben appears 
to me to have the best quality. A beautiful blae ripening 
about with Concord, it is delicious to eat and will make a 
good white wine. Tested 244% total solids this backward 
_ season. Everyone should try it. B. 
Urbana Light red, large berries, clusters. Very late. A 
~Van Buren A very early black grave of the Concord type. A 
“Wayne 
“Westfield Similiar to Concord but juice is exceptionally 
highly colored. Has a place in juice making or jelly. A 
“Yates A late red of comparitively good quality. 22% solids 
this season. A 
There are many fine table varieties for those who appreciate 
the labrusca flavor. But few of these varieties are suitable 
for wines, and then only for special types. But of course 
everone is entitled to his own opinion--I have tasted a dry 
Fredonia wine that curled my very toes but its maker thought 
it was really good to drink.
