traordinsry wine made from this grape that IL
needs but little. comment here, more then 10 say
that since j has been brought before public no.
tice, such high encominms have been expressed
on its worth, that no other wine perhaps deserves.
The subscriber having long since formed the most
flattering opinion Of this wine and that opinion
backed by SO many excellent judges, he has no
hesitation in offering a third time a good premium
for competition. and now offers one hundred dol
lars for a bottle or flask Of dessert wine made in
any part Of the world since 1s4s, that shall be
found to possess as great a variety of excellent
qualities as the wine made at his vineyards. Per
sons wishing to plant vineyards or obtain plants
for table use are informed that from November to
January is the best time for setting out this grape,
and as it has not failedto give a good crop for six
successive years, it Is the best grape to be relied
on for supplying the table as it ripens it's fruit
well. and does not rot or shed Its fruits like the
other kinds, but will hang on the vines from two
to three months after ripe. For any other parti-
eulars apply by post prepaid to J. Noygs, Holly
