SECOND Crop OF GRAPEs.-Mr. J.
X. Martin was in town a few days ago
with an express load of his fine grapes,
being the second crop from the same
vines. They are not so large as the
first growth, but are of good size and
fine flavor. We thank him for the
privilege of testing their quality, and
wish he could produce the third crop
in one season-and if such thing can
be accomplished Mr.. Martin is the
man to do it, if proper culture and
painstaking will bring about such a
result.
