EARLY OHIO. 12 cents per pound at times as profitable as. Early Ohio —This new black Gi-ape — ripening- ten days before Moore's Early — is the most valuable black variety offered for its season ; berries about the size of |Concord; bunches good size and packed \'ery close : berries jet black, with heavy bloom. The originator speaks as follows : In the summer of "82 I found, between a row of Delaware and Concord, a small g-rape vine which had just started the third leaf. 1 took it up, reset it and g'ave it ordinary care. The third year from the seed it set thirty clusters; I removed ten, allowing- the rest to ripen, and to my sur- prise they were ripe the 20th day of Au- gust, ten days earlier than Moore's Early. It has borne large crops every year since, ripening in "89 the 15th of August, and always as early as the 20th of that month, a week to ten days earlier than Moore's Early under the same conditions and on the same soil. The Early Ohio never drops from the stem ; a merit highly appreci- ated by shippers. I never saw a vine on a trellis that could equal it for hardiness. As to quality. I do not hesitate to say that it takes the lead of all black grapes up to the ripening of the Worden. In '88 I sold the fruit for 15 cents per pound, and in '89 for wholesale in the Cleveland market. It is fully three Moore's Early, and much supe- , rior in quality. 2-year, $1 ea. ^ Green Mountain — A new very early white grape of the finest quality, bears very yoang and is very productive: vine as strong as Concord. Especially adapted for north- ern sections where others will not ripen. 2-year, each, 60c.; dozen, $(100. V Moore's Diamond —T h i s great white grape has the hardiness, foliage and growth of Concord, but is two to three weeks earlier. The bunch
