TABLE GRAPES 
(Our chief interest is in wine grapes. Byt several of the latter are superb table 
grapes; and in addition we offer a few American-type varieties of superior quality.) 
Kuropean Typee For those seeking table grapes of the European type--i.ee., non-foxy, delicate 
flavor, crisp texture--we list the following, which are described above; Seibel 9110, Seibel 
11805, Seibel 13047, Seyve-Villard Nos. 12303, 12309, and 12375. When carefully grown, these 
will be a revelation.

regions but healthy in che northeast. Fruit far superior to the Concord and fully as pro- 
ductivee A New York Station hybrid. Not a wine grape, but will yield an acceptable rose 
wine if made carefully.
