Alden (Geneva #13035)—An Ontario by Grosse Guillaume cross. Vine vigorous 
and productive; clusters large, tapering, loose; berries large, oval, reddish 
black; flesh juicy, meaty, tender, sweet and vinous; quality good. Season end 
of September. Slight cracking occurred during one wet season. Due to large 
size, pleasing texture and quality, this grape is deemed well worthy of trial for 
the home and local markets. Requires short pruning. 
Athens —is a promising black grape of the Concord type that ripens about 
a month earlier. Vine very vigorous, hardy, and very productive; bunches 
medium to large, loose and tapering; berries larger than the Concord, 
roundish oval, black with a heavy bloom; skin tender; flesh tough, sweet, 
slightly foxy, good quality. Well worthy of trial as an early black grape of the 
Concord type. 
Bath (Geneva # 18149)—Obtained from a cross between Fredonia and Sta. 
#10805 (Chasselas Rose Violet x Mills). Vine vigorous and productive; 
cluster medium in size and compact; berry medium, round oval, black; flesh 
tender, juicy, sweet, free from foxiness; quality good; season last week in 
September. Vines are liable to overbear unless more severely pruned than 
the Concord. 
Buffalo—is an early black grape ripening first week in September, and is 
suitable for dessert and wine. Vine is vigorous, slightly tender, but very 
productive; clusters medium plus, tapering, medium compact; berries 
medium, roundish oval, adherence strong; flesh juicy, melting, very sweet, 
slightly foxy, pleasing, good. 
Dunkirk—has bunches and berries similar to those of Delaware, but both 
are larger, and the crop ripens later and keeps longer. The skin is thin like 
that of Delaware, of similar color, but is tough enough to make the grape 
a good shipper. The clusters are unusually uniform in shape and size, com-
