This will give you an idea of what you
will have to contend with.
In asking questions about grape Gull
ture in South Florida, remember that
the man, who knows all about it else
where, knows nothing about There. An
other essential point to bear in mind is,
that successful grape culture in South
Florida is less than three years old.

A Talk About Grapes.

about it by this time, but | certainly

in the business, yet my efforts have been
Successful enough to know that in the
near future, South Florida will take the
lead in grapes as she does in oranges and
lemons. Why do believe this? Because
we have the heat, the sunshine, the dry
even temperature that must be had to
perfect any fruit and it has been proven
within the last two years that some
varieties of grapes will grow and perfect
their fruit in this vicinity while others
will not. Some of the vines will notgrOw,
Others the vine will make a vigorous
growth, fruit heavily but the fruit will
not ripen There have been under cul-
tivation here at Geneva on high ham
mock and pine land some seventy varie-
ties and tt ere has been only two that
pro we'd themselves to be all that can be
desired.
We have a strain of Delewares that
grows vigorously, fruits heavily, ripens
evenly and is as handsome red grape as
was ever seen. Quality, fair to good,
but it lacks the flavor OF those of North
ern growth, but still is desirable. 1t
ripens July 4th.
The next in quality is the Duchess, a
rapid grower, whitegrape, berry smallish,
good bearer, quality, fair to good, is
desirable, and ripens June Goth to both.
Then we have the far famed and much
lauded White Niagara. You will find, or
at least have, that there is more in an
ticipation than in reality in this Niagara
busine SIS. You have read Chambers"
article in the AGR.CULTURIsT-he quotes
in that from Sigma. Ought not the
"Rambler'' to have stopped long enough
to have had his dates in pioneering
agreed with Signals? 1t might lead to
doubts in them that know Allow
me to make quotation from Qui Vive,
in the Times Union Of December Goth.
He says at that date he went to Orlando
to investigate the truth of the wonder
full stories about the Niagara grape and
says, "More delicious grapes, more perfect
or larger clusters never grew on the vine
clad hills of France. All the dewy airs
of the night, the gentle showers offspring,
the golden sunshine of summer and the
fragrance of flowers seem concentrated
in the grapes grown in Florida. The
bouquet or aroma which they exhale is
perfectly entrancing." Don't that pile
up your anticipation? If he found the
above condition of things on December
Goth what do you suppose they were
June Goth during the vintage?
| will give the Niagara all the credit
which | believe is due it. 1T is a rapid
grower, the fruit is snowy and ripens up
June Goth to both evenly. 1t started
grape culture anew, for we had all been
defeated in our efforts to ripen grapes
satisfactorily until it's appearance. AS
for the quality of the fruit, try it your
self, then you will know.

coming to the fore, for | believe we shall
