. Niagara Gkaps. new hardy grape, the Mckinley. A new early white variety, which has created considerable interest, and which should prove very valuable on account of its extreme earliness and high quality. The introducer, a promi- nent grower, describes it as ripening fully ten days ahead of Niagara and fully as productive, with usually very large-shouldered bunches and large, nearly round berries, which are green at first, turning to yellow when fully ripe. Two-year-old vines, $ each. STRAWBERRIES. New Varieties. Chellie. Among the many new Strawberries placed on the market the past season, we believe The Chellie stands at the head of the list. It is of strong, vigorous growth, perfect flower- ing and remarkably prolific, fruit of the largest size, perfect in form, firm and of bright scarlet color, of exquisite flavor. It ripens from mid-season to late, holding its large size throughout the season. 30 cts. per doz.; § per 100; § per 1000. Rough Rider. This variety originated in Oswego County, New York, where a specialty is made of growing very late berries. One of the most progressive growers in this district says of the Rough Rider : " It has perfect blossoms, is an extremely vigor- ous grower, enormously productive, the latest and firmest berry and the best ; We recommend it for trial to all who desire a very late berry. 30 cts. per doz.; § per 100 ; § per 1000. Everbearing, St. Antoine de Padoue. When grown under favorable conditions this new French variety possesses the re- markable characteristic of fruiting continuously through the summer and autumn months. The berries measure from 4 to 5 inches in circumference, are of a rich, dark red color and ol excellent flavor. We recommend it for trial, especially where it can be planted in a cool, rich soil. 10 cts. each; 75 cts. per doz.; § per 100. SELECT LIST OF STANDARD STRAWBERRIES. Extra Early Sorts.
