Considered by Mr. Rogers his best variety. Is a red grape of the Hamburg cross; early, large, productive, and of great vigor of growth. Fruit of rich, high, and peculiar aromatic flavor. No. 19. Very large, and earlier than the Diana; regarded by many as the finest grape in the collection; is of the size and color of the Black Hamburg; bunches and fruit large and compact; a very strong grower. No. 33. Closely resembles No. 19 in appearance, but is somewhat ear- lier, and promises, though different, to be quite equal in flavor. I have several other numbers of Mr. Rogers' Hybrids, which I have not yet tested. v SHAKER, OH UNION VILLAGE. Is a very large and beautiful grape, rivaling the Black Hamburg in size and appearance. It is a very strong grower, and good bearer; in quality, usually thought rather better than the Isabella. When planted in rich soil, is a most rampant grower, and requires protection in winter. At the last session of the American Pomological Society, this grape was declared to be identical with the Ontario, and the decision is probably correct. ^ TAYLOR'S BULLITT, Has been highly recommended, but accounts differ very much as to its value. The vine is of very rapid, vigorous growth, appraently productive, bunches small, berries medium in size, color nearly white, flavor sweet, but to my taste inferior to the Rebecca, Cuyahoga or Lydia. I have seen it recommended by several cultivators in Missouri and elsewhere as supe- rior and very desirable for the table and wine; but as far as my own ex- perience goes, it has not met my expectations. * TO-KALON, Known also as Carter or "Wyma
