It ripens with Delaware, which it resembles in appearance, though larger in bunch and berry. A valuable grape. GRAPESâRESISTANT FOR STOCKS. It has now been fully demonstrated, both in this country and Europe, that ceitain species of grapes possess qualities which render them resistant to the ravages of the phyllox- era, the dreaded enemy of the vine-grower. Of these species the Vitis Riparia is recognized as the best, and as being strictly phylloxera proof. Grafting the cultivated varieties on this stock is considered the surest safeguard against the pest, and the best way to render our vineyards permanent and profitable. The Riparia is a very vigorous grower. It takes the grafts readily, forming perfect unions. The grafts, in nearly every instance, make more vigorous and rapid growth on these wild stocks than when on their own s V CURRANTS. 'â / Black Grape-^Much resembles Ogden's Black, but the plant is perhaps a stronger and more vigorous grower.

It is as large as the Cherry, more uniform, fruit less acid, fully as productive, and decidedly earlier. Fertile de Palluau-1^ vigorous, upright grower ; bunches long; berries bright red, mod- erately juicy : very productive. Gondouin Red-^^Bunches very long, more so than Red Dutch
