Red; bunch and berry large; flesh tender, sweet and pulpites, with agreeable aroma. The earliest of Rogers Hybrids, ripens with Hartford. Vine vigorous, healthy, hardy and fairly productive. Merrimac—(Rogers No. 19). Black ; ripens about with the Concord ; bunch and berry very large; quality good; very similar to Wilder but hardier. Strong grower and productive. MiSls—New black. Described as a cross between the Creveling and a foreign variety. Bunch very large, compact and shouldered. Berry large and adheres firmly to the stem. Flesh firm, meaty, juicy, rich and sprightly. Vine vigorous, healthy and productive. Ripens soon after Concord and is a good keeper. Promising. Missouri Riessling—(Grein's No. 1). A white wine grape, ripens before Catawba; bunch and berry of medium size and good quality. Vine very vigorous, healthy, hardy and productive. Moore'a Early—Black; a seedling of the Con- cord, which it resembles. Equal to it in quality, health and hardiness, but ripening some ten days earlier. It is a good, fair grower and bearer, but requires age to do its best. Bunch large, berry very large. It is being extensively planted for market; valuable for garden and vineyard. Moore's Diamond—New; white. A strong grower and quite healthy and hardy. Very pro- ductive. Bunch and berry large. Quality fine. Ripens a little before Concord. Very desirable for both domestic and market purposes. Moyer—This new grape originated in Canada, and seems to be a cross between the Delaware and some purely native variety. In hardiness, quality, color and size it is the equal of the Delaware, but is a better grower, two weeks earlier (ripen- ing with the Champion) and has so far been free from rot and mildew. Very valuable. pocKfjiNGTON. 14 size.
