‘~ Alden—An Ontario by Grosse Guillaume cross. Vine vigorous and produc- 
tive; 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—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
