To praise a grape and insist that it is just about the grape for customers to invest in because it succeeds in one's own vineyard or to condemn it for reasons the reverse only demonstrate inability or unwillingness to see over one's own garden fence. There is no grape on this or any other list which thrives everywhere, neither do I know of one on this list which has not its friends. AGAWAM (Rogers No. 15)—One of the most reliable of the best quality grapes. Bunches large, berries very large. Red. Ripens with or soon after Concord, and is of peculiar aromatic flavor. ANTOINETTE (Miner's Seedling)—Large, white, strong growing, healthy and productive, and earlier than Concord, and of good quality. ALIENS—Nearly white. Tender and delicate and early, with mild muscat flavor. Best quality, is liable to mildew and rot, but is worthy for amateur collections. ALVEY—Black, small. A wine grape, but not of much value. AMBER—Red. Bunch large, berry medium. Sweet, juicy and of fine flavor, hardy, vigor- ous and very productive. Exquisite table grape, also makes a good white wine. Rather late. AMBER QUEEN—Ripens last of August. Healthy and of high quality and flavor. Bunch large. Color purple. AMINIA (Rogers No. 39)—Productive, early, hardy. Black. Bunches large, healthy and compact. Very desirable for market or home use. One of the earliest good grapes. ARNOLD'S HYBRIDS— Othello (No. 1)—Bunch and berry very large. Black, and ripens with Delaware. Cornucopia (No. 2)—Black, bunch large, berry above medium. Doubtless the best of Arnold's Hybrids. Autuchon (No. 5)—Greenish white, bunches long, berry medi
